PRESCRIBING SCALAR CURVATURE ON Sn

چکیده
on S for n ≥ 3. In the case R is rotationally symmetric, the well-known Kazdan-Warner condition implies that a necessary condition for (1) to have a solution is: R > 0 somewhere and R′(r) changes signs. Then, (a) is this a sufficient condition? (b) If not, what are the necessary and sufficient conditions? These have been open problems for decades. In Chen & Li, 1995, we gave question (a) a negative answer. We showed that a necessary condition for (1) to have a solution is: R′(r) changes signs in the region where R is positive. (2)

Prescribing Scalar Curvature on Sn and Related Problems , Part 11 : Existence and Compactness YANYAN
This is a sequel to [30], which studies the prescribing scalar curvature problem on S". First we present some existence and compactness results for n = 4. The existence result extends that of Bahri and Coron [4], Benayed, Chen, Chtioui, and Hammami [6], and Zhang [39]. The compactness results are new and optimal. In addition, we give a counting formula of all solutions. This counting formula, t...

متن کاملPrescribing Scalar Curvature on S N , Part 1 : Apriori Estimates
In this paper, we describe great details of the bubbling behavior for a sequence of solutions wi of Lwi +Riw n+2 n−2 i = 0 on S , where L is the conformal Laplacian operator of (Sn, g0) and Ri = n(n−2)+ tiR̂, R̂ ∈ C1(Sn). As ti ↓ 0, we prove among other things the location of blowup points, the spherical Harnack inequality near each blowup point and the asymptotic formulas for the interaction of ...
متن کاملThe Existence Results for Solutions of Indefinite Scalar Curvature Problem
In this paper, we consider the indefinite scalar curvature problem on R. We propose new conditions on the prescribing scalar curvature function such that the scalar curvature problem on R (similarly, on S ) has at least one solution. The key observation in our proof is that we use the bifurcation method to get a large solution and then after establishing the Harnack inequality for solutions nea...
متن کاملPrescribing Integral Curvature Equation
In this paper we formulate new curvature functions on Sn via integral operators. For certain even orders, these curvature functions are equivalent to the classic curvature functions defined via differential operators, but not for all even orders. Existence result for antipodally symmetric prescribed curvature functions on Sn is obtained. As a corollary, the existence of a conformal metric for a...
