The object of the present paper is to study $\beta$-almost Yamabe solitons and $\beta$-almost Ricci solitons on almost co-K\"{a}hler manifolds. In this paper, we prove that if an almost co-K\"{a}hler manifold $M$ with the Reeb vector field…

In this paper, we provide a necessary and sufficient conditions for the warped product $M=B\times_f F$ to be a gradient Yamabe soliton when the base is conformal to an n-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space, which are invariant under the…

We identify the smooth metrics $\mc{M}(M)$ on a manifold $M^n$ with the smooth isometric embeddings $f_g: (M,g) \rightarrow (\mb{S}^{\tn}, \tg)$ into a standard sphere of large dimension $\tn=\tn(n)$, and their Palais isotopic deformations,…

We develop a "metrically selfdual" variational calculus for $c$-monotone vector fields between general manifolds $X$ and $Y$, where $c$ is a coupling on $X\times Y$. Remarkably, many of the key properties of classical monotone operators…

We consider two cases of the asymptotically flat scalar-flat Yamabe problem on a non-compact manifold with boundary, in dimension $n\geq3$. First, following arguments of Cantor and Brill in the compact case, we show that given an…

We consider almost quasi-Yamabe solitons in Riemannian manifolds, derive a Bochner-type formula in the gradient case and prove that under certain assumptions, the manifold is of constant scalar curvature. We also provide necessary and…

We consider the case with boundary of the classical Kazdan-Warner problem in dimension greater or equal than three, i.e. the prescription of scalar and boundary mean curvatures via conformal deformations of the metric. We deal in particular…

In this paper, we classify 3-dimensional complete gradient Yamabe solitons with divergence-free Cotton tensor. We also give some classifications of complete gradient Yamabe solitons with nonpositively curved Ricci curvature in the direction…

The Yamabe invariant is an invariant of a closed smooth manifold defined using conformal geometry and the scalar curvature. Recently, Petean showed that the Yamabe invariant is non-negative for all closed simply connected manifolds of…

This paper is concerned with the study of generalized gradient Ricci-Yamabe solitons. We characterize the compact generalized gradient Ricci-Yamabe soliton and find certain conditions under which the scalar curvature becomes constant. The…

We investigate the conformal and superconformal properties of a non-relativistic spinning particle propagating in a curved background coupled to a magnetic field and with a scalar potential. We derive the conditions on the couplings for a…

In this paper a thorough study of the normal form and the first integrability conditions arising from {\em bi-conformal vector fields} is presented. These new symmetry transformations were introduced in {\em Class. Quantum…

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…

In this work, we study the convergence of the normalized Yamabe flow with positive Yamabe constant on a class of pseudo-manifolds that includes stratified spaces with iterated cone-edge metrics. We establish convergence under a low energy…

For a simply connected closed Riemannian manifold with positive scalar curvature, we prove an upper diameter bound in terms of its scalar curvature integral, the Yamabe constant and the dimension of the manifold. When a manifold has a…

In this article, we present a complete study of two disjoint classes of conformal vector fields on doubly warped product manifolds as well as on doubly warped space-times. Then we study Ricci solitons on doubly warped product manifollds…

On any closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$, we prove that if a function nearly minimizes the Yamabe energy, then the corresponding conformal metric is close, in a quantitative sense, to a minimizing Yamabe metric in the…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension n \geq 3. The Compactness Conjecture asserts that the set of constant scalar curvature metrics in the conformal class of g is compact unless (M,g) is conformally equivalent to the…

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 will report some results concerning the Yamabe problem and the Nirenberg problem. Related topics will also be discussed. Such studies have led to new results on some conformally invariant fully nonlinear equations arising from geometry.…
