Abstract

We prove that if (Mm,h)(M^m, h) is a Yamabe metric, then the product metric h+gflath + g_{\mathrm{flat}} on Mm×TnmM^m \times T^{n-m} is also a Yamabe metric whenever the flat torus TnmT^{n-m} is sufficiently small. This generalizes earlier results for S1×Sn1S^1 \times S^{n-1}. Our method extends to the study of Type~I and Type~II Yamabe constants, QQ-curvature problems, and an isoperimetric-ratio type problem.
