Stability for small data: the drift model of the conformal method

The conformal method in general relativity aims to successfully parametrise the set of all initial data associated with globally hyperbolic spacetimes. One such mapping was suggested by David Maxwell. I verify that the solutions of the corresponding conformal system are stable, in the sense that they present a priori bounds under perturbations of the system’s coefficients. This result holds in dimensions $3\le n\le 5$, when the metric is conformally flat, the drift is small. A scalar field with suitably high potential is considered in this case.
