We prove that generically (positive) Yamabe metrics are unique in their conformal class, and describe some sufficient conditions which imply that a Yamabe metric of locally maximal scalar curvature is an Einstein metric.

Assume that $M$ is a CR compact manifold without boundary and CR Yamabe invariant $\mathcal{Y}(M)$ is positive. Here, we devote to study a class of sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality as follows \begin{equation*} \Bigl| \int_M\int_M…

A classical theorem in conformal geometry states that on a manifold with non-positive Yamabe invariant, a smooth metric achieving the invariant must be Einstein. In this work, we extend it to the singular case and show that in all…

We construct solutions for the fractional Yamabe problem that are singular at a prescribed number of isolated points. This seems to be the first time that a gluing method is successfully applied to a non-local problem. The main step is an…
