We study the Yamabe problem on open manifolds of bounded geometry and show that under suitable assumptions there exist Yamabe metrics, i.e. conformal metrics of constant scalar curvature. For that, we use weighted Sobolev embeddings.
We consider the equivariant Yamabe problem, i.e. the Yamabe problem on the space of G-invariant metrics for a compact Lie group G. The G-Yamabe invariant is analogously defined as the supremum of the constant scalar curvatures of unit…

We characterize the rate of convergence of a converging volume-normalized Yamabe flow in terms of Morse theoretic properties of the limiting metric. If the limiting metric is an integrable critical point for the Yamabe functional (for…
