We prove the existence of a solution of the Yamabe equation on complete manifolds with finite volume and positive Yamabe invariant. In order to circumvent the standard methods on closed manifolds which heavily rely on global (compact)…
Spinorial methods have proven to be a powerful tool to study geometric properties of spin manifolds. Our aim is to continue the spinorial study of manifolds that are not necessarily spin. We introduce and study the notion of $G$-invariance…
We study the existence of solutions to the spinorial Yamabe equation -- that is, the Euler--Lagrange equation associated with the conformal invariant introduced by S. Raulot -- for compact manifolds with boundary. For the inhomogeneous…
Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold with dimension n > 2. The Yamabe problem is to find a metric with constant scalar curvature in the conformal class of g, by minimizing the total scalar curvature. The proof was completed in 1984.…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the closedness of the range of a class of first-order differential operators associated with an involutive structure on $M\times\mathbb{T}^m$, where $M$ is a non-compact manifold…
We complete the classification (started by Bray and the second author) of all closed 3-manifolds with Yamabe invariant greater than that of $\RP^3$, by showing that such manifolds are either $S^3$ or finite connected sums $# m(S^2 \times…

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.…
Given closed Riemannian manifold $(M^n, g)$ of positive Ricci curvature $Ricci(g) \geq (n-1)g$ we study isoperimetric regions on the spherical cone over $M$. When $g$ is Einstein we use this to compute the Yamabe constant of $(M \times {\bf…
Our aim in this paper is to study local rigidity for metrics defined on a compact manifold $M$ with boundary satisfying constant scalar curvature on $M$ and constant mean curvature on $\partial M$. We present some geometrical hypotheses…
In this paper, we consider a class of fully nonlinear equations on closed smooth Riemannian manifolds, which can be viewed as an extension of $\sigma_k$ Yamabe equation. Moreover, we prove local gradient and second derivative estimates for…
We give sufficient and "almost" necessary conditions for the prescribed scalar curvature problems within the conformal class of a Riemannian metric $ g $ for both closed manifolds and compact manifolds with boundary, including the…
Let (M,g) be a compact manifold of dimension n greater or equals to 3. We suppose that g is a given metric in a precised Sobolev space and there is a point P in M and d>o such that g is smooth on the ball B(P,d). We define the second Yamabe…
This paper is concerned with the zero mode equation $D_g\varphi=iA\cdot\varphi$ on product of closed spin manifolds $(M_1^{n_1}\times M_2^{n_2},g_1+g_2,\sigma)$ of dimensions $n_1\leq n_2$ respectively. Here $A$ is a real vector field on…
Given a conformally variational scalar Riemannian invariant $I$, we identify a sufficient condition for a compact Riemannian manifold to admit finite regular coverings with many nonhomothetic conformal rescalings with $I$ constant. We also…
We solve the $\sigma_2$-Yamabe problem for a non locally conformally flat manifold of dimension $n>8$.
Symmetry plays a basic role in variational problems (settled e.g. in $\mathbb R^{n}$ or in a more general manifold), for example to deal with the lack of compactness which naturally appear when the problem is invariant under the action of a…
We prove global existence of Yamabe flows on non-compact manifolds $M$ of dimension $m\geq3$ under the assumption that the initial metric $g_0=u_0g_M$ is conformally equivalent to a complete background metric $g_M$ of bounded, non-positive…
In this paper, we consider the Yamabe equation on a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold and find some geometric conditions on the manifold such that the Yamabe problem admits a bounded positive solution.
In this article we study any 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with harmonic curvature which admits a smooth nonzero solution $f$ to the following equation \begin{eqnarray} \label{0002bx} \nabla df = f(Rc -\frac{R}{n-1} g) + x Rc+…
