چکیده
Let (V, g) and (W,h) be compact Riemannian manifolds of dimension at least 3. We derive a lower bound for the conformal Yamabe constant of the product manifold (V × W, g + h) in terms of the conformal Yamabe constants of (V, g) and (W,h).

Lower bounds for warping functions on warped-product AHE manifolds
Let [γ] be the conformal boundary of a warped product C3,α AHE metric g = gM +u 2h on N = M×F , where (F, h) is compact with unit volume and nonpositive curvature. We show that if [γ] has positive Yamabe constant, then u has a positive lower bound that depends only on [γ].
متن کاملPrescribed Scalar Curvature problem on Complete manifolds
Conditions on the geometric structure of a complete Riemannian manifold are given to solve the prescribed scalar curvature problem in the positive case. The conformal metric obtained is complete. A minimizing sequence is constructed which converges strongly to a solution. In a second part, the prescribed scalar curvature problem of zero value is solved which is equivalent to find a solution to ...
متن کاملNear-constant Mean Curvature Solutions of the Einstein Constraint Equations with Non-negative Yamabe Metrics
We show that sets of conformal data on closed manifolds with the metric in the positive or zero Yamabe class, and with the gradient of the mean curvature function sufficiently small, are mapped to solutions of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations. This result extends previous work which required the conformal metric to be in the negative Yamabe class, and required the mean curvature functio...
متن کاملDiscrete conformal variations and scalar curvature on piecewise flat two and three dimensional manifolds
Consider a manifold constructed by identifying the boundaries of Euclidean triangles or Euclidean tetrahedra. When these form a closed topological manifold, we call such spaces piecewise flat manifolds (see Definition 1) as in [8]. Such spaces may be considered discrete analogues of Riemannian manifolds, in that their geometry can be described locally by a finite number of parameters, and the s...
متن کاملAn Existence Theorem for the Yamabe Problem on Manifolds with Boundary Simon Brendle and Szu-yu
The Yamabe problem, solved by Trudinger [14], Aubin [1], and Schoen [12], asserts that any Riemannian metric on a closed manifold is conformal to a metric with constant scalar curvature. Escobar [8], [9] has studied analogous questions on manifolds with boundary. To fix notation, let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension n ≥ 3 with boundary ∂M . We denote by Rg the scalar curvatur...
