We prove the existence of metrics with prescribed $Q$-curvature under natural assumptions on the sign of the prescribing function and the background metric. In the dimension four case, we also obtain existence results for curvature forms…
We study conformal metrics with prescribed Gaussian curvature on surfaces with conical singularities and geodesic boundary in supercritical regimes. Exploiting a variational argument, we derive a general existence result for surfaces with…
We establish several nonuniqueness results for the problem of finding complete conformal metrics with constant (fourth-order) $Q$-curvature on compact and noncompact manifolds of dimension $\geq5$. Infinitely many branches of metrics with…
This paper is devoted to the construction of weak solutions to the singular constant $Q$-curvature problem. We build on several tools developed in the last years. This is the first construction of singular metrics on closed manifolds of…
A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence and uniqueness of a conformal metric on 2-sphere of constant curvature 1 and with three conical singularities of prescribed order is given.
We demonstrate the existence of branched immersed 2-spheres with prescribed mean curvature, with controlled Morse index and with arbitrary codimensions in closed Riemannian manifold $N$ admitting finite fundamental group, where $\pi_k(N)…
In this article we give a criterion for the existence of a metric of curvature $1$ on a $2$-sphere with $n$ conical singularities of prescribed angles $2\pi\vartheta_1,\dots,2\pi\vartheta_n$ and non-coaxial holonomy. Such a necessary and…
We construct infinitely many distinct hypersurfaces with prescribed mean curvature (PMC) for a large class of prescribing functions when $(M^{n+1}, g)$ is a closed smooth manifold containing a minimal surface that is strictly stable (or…
In this paper we study the problem of prescribing the $\bar Q^{\prime}$-curvature on pseudo-Einstein CR 3-manifolds. In the first stage we study the problem in the compact setting and we show that under natural assumptions, one can…
We consider the constant Q-curvature metric problem in the given conformal class on conic 4-manifolds and study related differential equations.
This paper develops a technique for applying one-parameter prescribed mean curvature min-max theory in certain non-compact manifolds. We give two main applications. First, fix a dimension $3\le n+1 \le 7$ and consider a smooth function…
This paper is concerned with the problem of prescribing Gaussian curvature and geodesic curvature in a compact surface with boundary with conical singularities and corners. Solutions are obtained using a new variational formulation,…
Given a compact four dimensional manifold, we prove existence of conformal metrics with constant $Q$-curvature under generic assumptions. The problem amounts to solving a fourth-order nonlinear elliptic equation with variational structure.…
In this paper it is hown that given any smooth, positive function f on a closed, smooth manifold of dimension greater than four and with positive Paneitz invariant, there exists a metric on M such that $Q_g$ = f.
We study the spectrum of phase transitions with prescribed mean curvature in Riemannian manifolds. These phase transitions are solutions to an inhomogeneous semilinear elliptic PDE that give rise to diffuse objects (varifolds) that limit to…
We prove that, for a generic set of smooth prescription functions $h$ on a closed ambient manifold, there always exists a nontrivial, smooth, closed hypersurface of prescribed mean curvature $h$. The solution is either an embedded minimal…
We consider a variational problem for submanifolds Q $\subset$ M with nonempty boundary $\partial$Q = K. We propose the definition that the boundary K of any critical point Q have constant mean curvature, which seems to be a new perspective…
We consider the problem of varying conformally the metric of a four dimensional manifold in order to obtain constant $Q$-curvature. The problem is variational, and solutions are in general found as critical points of saddle type. We show…
We show that for given four points on the sphere and prescribed angles at these points, which are not multiples of $2\pi$, the number of metrics of curvature 1 having conic singularities with these angles at these points is finite.
In this paper we study the prescribed fractional $Q$-curvatures problem of order $2 \sigma$ on the $n$-dimensional standard sphere $(\mathbb{S}^{n}, g_0)$, where $n\geq3$, $\sigma\in(0,\frac{n-2}{2})$. By combining critical points at…
