We resolve three interrelated problems on \emph{reduced Kronecker coefficients} $\overline{g}(\alpha,\beta,\gamma)$. First, we disprove the \emph{saturation property} which states that $\overline{g}(N\alpha,N\beta,N\gamma)>0$ implies…

On a closed Riemannian manifold $(M^n ,g)$, we consider the Yamabe-type equation $-\Delta_g u + \lambda u = \lambda |u|^{q-1}u$, where $\lambda \in \mathbb{R}_{+}$ and $q>1$. We assume that $M$ admits a proper isoparametric function $f$…
