We investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations with large drift term in an open subset of two-dimensional Euclidean space. When the drift is given by $\varepsilon^{-1} (H_{x_2}, -H_{x_1})$ of a Hamiltonian…

We consider the CR Yamabe flow on a compact strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold $M$ of real dimension $2n+1$. We prove convergence of the CR Yamabe flow when $n=1$ or $M$ is spherical.

We establish new asymptotic results for the solutions of the second-grade fluids equations and characterize their decay rate in terms of the behavior of the initial data. Moreover, assuming more regularity for the initial data, we study the…

We study the parabolic flow for generalized complex Monge-Amp\`ere type equations on closed Hermitian manifolds. We derive {\em a priori} $C^\infty$ estimates for normalized solutions, and then prove the $C^\infty$ convergence.

The Yamabe invariant is a diffeomorphism invariant of smooth compact manifolds that arises from the normalized Einstein-Hilbert functional. This article highlights the manner in which one compelling open problem regarding the Yamabe…

In this paper, we consider the scalar curvature of Yamabe solitons. In particular we show that, with natural conditions and non positive Ricci curvature, any complete Yamabe soliton has constant scalar curvature, namely, it is a Yamabe…

We study the Yamabe problem on open manifolds of bounded geometry and show that under suitable assumptions there exist Yamabe metrics, i.e. conformal metrics of constant scalar curvature. For that, we use weighted Sobolev embeddings.

We study the Yamabe flow on a Riemannian manifold of dimension $m\geq3$ minus a closed submanifold of dimension $n$ and prove that there exists an instantaneously complete solution if and only if $n>\frac{m-2}{2}$. In the remaining cases…

In this paper we prove matrix Li-Yau-Hamilton estimates for positive solutions to the heat equation and the backward conjugate heat equation, both coupled with the Ricci flow. We then apply such estimates to establish the monotonicity of…

Given a compact Riemannian manifold with umbilic boundary, the Yamabe boundary problem studies if there exist conformal scalar-flat metrics such that the boundary has constant mean curvature. In this paper we address to the stability of…

In their study of the Yamabe problem in the presence of isometry group, Hebey and Vaugon announced a conjecture. This conjecture generalizes Aubin's conjecture, which has already been proven and is sufficient to solve the Yamabe problem. In…
