2 4 A ug 2 00 6 The geometry of conformally Einstein metrics with degenerate Weyl tensor
The problem of characterizing conformally Einstein manifolds by tensorial conditions has been tackled recently in papers by M. Listing, and in work by A. R. Gover and P. Nurowski. Their results apply to metrics satisfying a " non-degeneracy " condition on the Weyl tensor W. We investigate the geometry of the foliations arising on conformally Einstein spaces (with Riemannian signature) where thi...
متن کاملCompactness for Conformal Metrics with Constant Q Curvature on Locally Conformally Flat Manifolds
In this note we study the conformal metrics of constant Q curvature on closed locally conformally flat manifolds. We prove that for a closed locally conformally flat manifold of dimension n ≥ 5 and with Poincarë exponent less than n−4 2 , the set of conformal metrics of positive constant Q and positive scalar curvature is compact in the C∞ topology.
متن کاملTopics in Conformally Compact Einstein Metrics
Conformal compactifications of Einstein metrics were introduced by Penrose [38], as a means to study the behavior of gravitational fields at infinity, i.e. the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the vacuum Einstein equations at null infinity. This has remained a very active area of research, cf. [27], [19] for recent surveys. In the context of Riemannian metrics, the modern study of conformall...

متن کاملThe Penrose transform on conformally Bochner-Kähler manifolds
We give a generalization of the Penrose transform on Hermitian manifolds with metrics locally conformally equivalent to Bochner-Kähler metrics. We also give an explicit formula for the inverse transform. 1991 Mathematics Subject Classification: 32L25 (Primary), 53C55, 32C35 (Secondary)
