All spherically symmetric Riemannian metrics of constant scalar curvature in any dimension can be written down in a simple form using areal coordinates. All spherical metrics are conformally flat, so we search for the conformally flat…

We provide a partial characterization of the conformal infinity of asymptotically de Sitter spacetimes by deriving constraints that relate the asymptotics of the stress-energy tensor with conformal geometric data. The latter is captured…

In 1992, motivated by Riemann mapping theorem, Escobar considered a version of Yamabe problem on manifolds of dimension n greater than 2 with boundary. The problem consists in finding a conformal metric such that the scalar curvature is…

We find necessary and sufficient conditions for a Riemannian four-dimensional manifold $(M, g)$ with anti-self-dual Weyl tensor to be locally conformal to a Ricci--flat manifold. These conditions are expressed as the vanishing of scalar and…

Let $M$ be a compact complex manifold of dimension $n\geq 2$. We prove that for any Hermitian metric $\omega$ on $M$, there exists a unique smooth function $f$ (up to additive constants) such that the conformal metric $\omega_g =e^f \omega$…
