In this paper we revisit the $\sigma_k$-Yamabe problem on $M^n$, namely, finding a conformal metric with constant $\sigma_k$-scalar curvature. We prove that on a closed manifold $\left(M,\left[g_0\right]\right)$ with positive Yamabe…
In the spin case, we can establish a mass-capacity inequality for generalized asymptotically flat manifolds $(M,g,E)$ with nonnegative scalar curvature, where the equality implies that $(M,g)$ is harmonically conformal to $\mathbb…
Let $(X, g^+)$ be an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold and $(M, [\hat{h}])$ its conformal infinity. Our primary aim in this paper is to introduce the prescribed fractional scalar curvature problem on $M$ and provide solutions under various…
A classic result by Gromov and Lawson states that a Riemannian metric of non--negative scalar curvature on the Torus must be flat. The analogous rigidity result for the standard sphere was shown by Llarull. Later Goette and Semmelmann…
Let $g$ be a complete, asymptotically flat metric on $\mathbb{R}^3$ with vanishing scalar curvature. Moreover, assume that $(\mathbb{R}^3,g)$ supports a nearly Euclidean $L^2$ Sobolev inequality. We prove that $(\mathbb{R}^3,g)$ must be…

The critical point equation arises as a critical point of the total scalar curvature functional defined on the space of constant scalar curvature metrics of a unit volume on a compact manifold. In this equation, there exists a function $f$…
We prove nonuniqueness results for complete metrics with constant positive fractional curvature conformal to the round metric on $S^n \setminus S^k$, using bifurcation techniques. These are singular (positive) solutions to a non-local…
We extend the results and methods of \cite{MP} to prove the existence of constant positive scalar curvature metrics $g$ which are complete and conformal to the standard metric on $S^N \setminus \Lambda$, where $\Lambda$ is a disjoint union…
On a smooth, closed Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ of dimension $n\ge3$ with positive scalar curvature and not conformally diffeomorphic to the standard sphere, we prove that the only conformal metrics to $g$ with constant Q-curvature of order…
We study the problem of prescribing $\sigma_k$-curvature for a conformal metric on the standard sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$ with $2 \leq k < n/2$ and $n \geq 5$ in axisymmetry. Compactness, non-compactness, existence and non-existence results are…
We continue our previous work studying critical exponent semilinear elliptic (and subelliptic) problems which generalize the classical Yamabe problem. In [3] the focus was on metric-measure spaces with an `almost smooth' structure, with…
Assume that $(X, g^+)$ is an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold, $(M, [\bar{h}])$ is its conformal infinity, $\rho$ is the geodesic boundary defining function associated to $\bar{h}$ and $\bar{g} = \rho^2 g^+$. For any $\gamma \in (0,1)$,…
Let $R$ be a constant. Let $\mathcal{M}^R_\gamma$ be the space of smooth metrics $g$ on a given compact manifold $\Omega^n$ ($n\ge 3$) with smooth boundary $\Sigma $ such that $g$ has constant scalar curvature $R$ and $g|_{\Sigma}$ is a…
In this paper we analyze the capacitary potential due to a charged body in order to deduce sharp analytic and geometric inequalities, whose equality cases are saturated by domains with spherical symmetry. In particular, for a regular…
Among all metrics on $\mathbb S^d$ with $d>4$ that are conformal to the standard metric and have positive scalar curvature, the total $\sigma_2$-curvature, normalized by the volume, is uniquely (up to M\"obius transformations) minimized by…
