摘要

In this paper, we obtain the existence criteria for a geometric flow on noncompact affine Riemannian manifolds. Our results can be regarded as a real version of Lee and Tam (J Differ Geom 115(3):529–564, 2020). As an application, we prove that a complete noncompact Hessian manifold with nonnegative Hessian sectional curvature and bounded geometry is diffeomorphic to \(\mathbb {R}^n\) R n if its tangent bundle has maximal volume growth.
