We prove that in conformal classes of metrics near the class of an Einstein metric (other than the standard round metric on a sphere) the Yamabe problem has a unique solution up to scaling. This is a local extension, in the space of…

We study the equation $\Delta_g u -\frac{n-2}{4(n-1)}R(g)u+Ku^p=0 (1+\zeta \leq p \leq \frac{n+2}{n-2})$ on locally conformally flat compact manifolds $(M^n,g)$. We prove the following: (i) When the scalar curvature $R(g)>0$ and the…
Physicists such as Green, Vanhove, et al show that differential equations involving automorphic forms govern the behavior of gravitons. One particular point of interest is solutions to $(\Delta-\lambda)u=E_{\alpha} E_{\beta}$ on an…

Motivated by the prescribing scalar curvature problem, we study the equation $\Delta_g u +Ku^p=0 (1+\zeta \leq p \leq \frac{n+2}{n-2})$ on locally conformally flat manifolds $(M,g)$ with $R(g)=0$. We prove that when $K$ satisfies certain…
