Monotonicity
Crucial property of the flow:
Theorem (Monotonicity) If g, h are trajectories of the flow with g(0) 6 h(0), then g(t) 6 h(t),
t > 0.
Consequence: All solutions have same asymptotics up to bounded factors, i.e. log(g(t)/h(t)) = O(1), t → +∞

Asymptotic behavior
Representation Vi , φα is semisimple ⇔ flow converges to fixed point (“harmonic metric”) X α:i→j

φα hj−1 φ∗α hi = 0

Proof: Apply Kempf-Ness theorem to ΠGl(Vi )-action on φα ’s If representation is not semisimple: Metric h grows at different polynomial rates on various subspaces. Limiting filtration (monotonicity ⇒ does not depend on initial metric)

The filtrations are given by the asymptotic behavior of the area of the necks. In the next conjecture we propose a connection of the technique of central manifolds with the theory of spectral networks. We consider a limit of Φ so that the spectral covering becomes several non-intersecting components.
We will put the additional ramification points using the Fredrickson equation.
