Our main goal in this work is to deal with results concern to the $\sigma_2$-curvature. First we find a symmetric 2-tensor canonically associated to the $\sigma_2$-curvature and we present an Almost Schur Type Lemma. Using this tensor we…
We study the Yamabe invariants of cylindrical manifolds and compact orbifolds with a finite number of singularities, by means of conformal geometry and the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer $L^2$-index theory. For an $n$-orbifold $M$ with singularities…

The precise asymptotic behaviour of the solutions to the twodimensional curvature equation $\Delta u=k(z) e^{2 u}$ with $e^{2 u} \in L^1$ for bounded nonnegative curvature functions $-k(z)$ near isolated singularities is obtained.
In this paper we are interested in the qualitative properties of the solutions to the fractional Yamabe problem in $\mathbb{R}^n$ which present an isolated singularity. In particular, we prove that the Morse index of any such solution is…
We study the asymptotic behavior of local solutions to the Yamabe equation near an isolated singularity, when the metric is not conformally flat. We prove that, in dimension $6$, any solution is asymptotically close to a Fowler solution,…
This is a paper based on a talk given at the conference on Conformal Geometry which held at Roscoff in France in the 2008 summer. We study some aspects of the equation arising from the problem of the existence on a given closed Riemannian…
In this paper, we study existence, regularity, classification, and asymptotical behaviors of solutions of some Monge-Amp\`ere equations with isolated and line singularities. We classify all solutions of $\det \nabla^2 u=1$ in $\R^n$ with…
