We introduce an iterative scheme to solve the Yamabe equation $ - a\Delta_{g} u + S u = \lambda u^{p-1} $ on small domains $(\Omega,g)\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ equipped with a Riemannian metric $g$. Thus $g$ admits a conformal change to a…

On a compact stratified space (X, g) there exists a metric of constant scalar curvature in the conformal class of g, if the scalar curvature satisfies an integrability condition and if the Yamabe constant of X is strictly smaller than the…

We obtain uncountably many periodic solutions to the singular Yamabe problem on a round sphere, that blow up along a great circle. These are (complete) constant scalar curvature metrics on the complement of $S^1$ inside $S^m$, $m\geq 5$,…

The Yamabe invariant Y(M) of a smooth compact manifold is roughly the supremum of the scalar curvatures of unit-volume constant-scalar curvature Riemannian metrics g on M. (To be absolutely precise, one only considers…

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…
