A Liouville type theorem for some conformally invariant fully nonlinear equations

A general Liouville type theorem for some conformally invariant fully nonlinear equations

Various Liouville type theorems for conformally invariant equations have been obtained by Obata ([9]), Gidas, Ni and Nirenberg ([4]), Caffarelli, Gidas and Spruck ([1]), Viaclovsky ([10] and [11]), Chang, Gursky and Yang ([2] and [3]), and Li and Li ([5], [6] and [7]). See e. g. theorem 1.3 and remark 1.6 in [6] where these results (except for the one in [7]) are stated more precisely. In this ...

On Some Conformally Invariant Fully Nonlinear Equations

We will report some results concerning the Yamabe problem and the Nirenberg problem. Related topics will also be discussed. Such studies have led to new results on some conformally invariant fully nonlinear equations arising from geometry. We will also present these results which include some Liouville type theorems, Harnack type inequalities, existence and compactness of solutions to some nonl...

4 On some conformally invariant fully nonlinear equations , Part II : Liouville , Harnack and Yamabe

The Yamabe problem concerns finding a conformal metric on a given closed Riemannian manifold so that it has constant scalar curvature. This paper concerns mainly a fully nonlinear version of the Yamabe problem and the corresponding Liouville type problem.

Degenerate Conformally Invariant Fully Nonlinear Elliptic Equations

There has been much work on conformally invariant fully nonlinear elliptic equations and applications to geometry and topology. See for instance [17], [5], [4], [10], [14], [9], and the references therein. An important issue in the study of such equations is to classify entire solutions which arise from rescaling blowing up solutions. Liouville type theorems for general conformally invariant fu...
