Hypersurfaces in Hyperbolic Poincar\'e Manifolds and Conformally Invariant PDEs
Abstract
We derive a relationship between the eigenvalues of the Weyl-Schouten tensor of a conformal representative of the conformal infinity of a hyperbolic Poincar\'e manifold and the principal curvatures on the level sets of its uniquely associated defining function with calculations based on [9] [10]. This relationship generalizes the result for hypersurfaces in {\H}^{n+1} and their connection to the conformal geometry of as exhibited in [7] and gives a correspondence between Weingarten hypersurfaces in hyperbolic Poincar\'e manifolds and conformally invariant equations on the conformal infinity. In particular, we generalize an equivalence exhibited in [7] between Christoffel-type problems for hypersurfaces in {\H}^{n+1} and scalar curvature problems on the conformal infinity to hyperbolic Poincar\'e manifolds.
