In this paper we define the bi-orthogonal sectional curvature and we present two modified Yamabe invariants for compact 4-dimensional manifolds. In particular we obtained a relationship between one of these invariants and a Hopf conjecture.
We define a relative Yamabe invariant of a smooth manifold with given conformal class on its boundary. In the case of empty boundary the invariant coincides with the classic Yamabe invariant. We develop approximation technique which leads…
We refine Theorem A due to Gursky \cite{G3}. As applications, we give some rigidity theorems on four-manifolds with postive Yamabe constant. In particular, these rigidity theorems are sharp for our conditions have the additional properties…
We study a characterization of 4-dimensional (not necessarily complete) gradient Ricci solitons $(M, g, f)$ which have harmonic Weyl curvature, i.e. $\delta W=0$. Roughly speaking, we prove that the soliton metric $g$ is locally isometric…
We study a conformal flow for compact Riemannian manifolds of dimension greater than two with boundary. Convergence to a scalar-flat metric with constant mean curvature on the boundary is established in dimensions up to seven, and in any…

Almost contact complex Riemannian manifolds, known also as almost contact B-metric manifolds, are in principle equipped with a pair of mutually associated pseudo-Riemannian metrics. Each of these metrics is specialized here as a Yamabe…

The paper mainly concerns the structure at infinity for complete gradient shrinking Ricci solitons. It is shown that for such a soliton with bounded curvature, if the round cylinder $\mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{S}^{n-1}/\Gamma$ occurs as a…
We study the convergence of complete non-compact conformally flat solutions to the Yamabe flow to Yamabe steady solitons. We also prove the existence of Type II singularities which develop at either a finite time $T$ or as $t \to +\infty$.
In this paper, we completely classify conformal solitons on pseudo-Riemannian hypersurfaces in pseudo-Euclidean spaces arisen from the position vector field. In particular, the classification of Yamabe solitons on pseudo-Riemannian…
In this paper we provide a sharp characterization of the smooth four-dimensional sphere. The assumptions of the theorem are conformally invariant, and can be reduced to an L^2 inequality of the Weyl tensor and positivity of the Yamabe…
We prove that compact non-flat manifolds with constant sectional curvature admit no conformal product structure. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the methods extend naturally to irreducible, compact locally symmetric spaces of non-positive…
A Yamabe soliton is considered on an almost contact complex Riemannian manifold (also known as an almost contact B-metric manifold) which is obtained by a contact conformal transformation of the Reeb vector field, its dual contact 1-form,…
It is shown that the qc Yamabe problem has a solution on any compact qc manifold which is non-locally qc equivalent to the standard 3-Sasakian sphere. Namely, it is proved that on a compact non-locally spherical qc manifold there exists a…
We show that any locally conformally flat ancient solution to the Ricci flow must be rotationally symmetric. As a by-product, we prove that any locally conformally flat Ricci soliton is a gradient soliton in the shrinking and steady cases…
