Liouville Theorems on pseudohermitian manifolds with nonnegative Tanaka-Webster curvature

In this paper we study positive solutions to the CR Yamabe equation in noncompact $(2n+1)$-dimensional Sasakian manifolds with nonnegative curvature. In particular, we show that the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$ is the only (complete) Sasakian space with nonnegative Tanaka-Webster scalar curvature admitting a (nontrivial) positive solution. Moreover, under some natural assumptions, we prove this strong rigidity result in higher dimensions, extending the celebrated Jerison-Lee's result to curved manifolds.
