Let $\Omega$ be a domain on the unit $n$-sphere $ \mathbb S^n$ and $\mathring{g}$ the standard metric of $\mathbb S^n$, $n\ge 3$. We show that there exists a conformal metric $g$ with vanishing scalar curvature $R(g)=0$ such that $(\Omega,…

For warped products with harmonic curvature, nonconstant warping functions $\phi$, and compact two-dimensional bases $(M,h)$, we establish a dichotomy: either the Gaussian curvature $K$ of the metric $g=\phi^{-2}h$ is constant and negative,…
