On the prescribed scalar curvature problem on the three-dimensional half sphere [PDF]

open access: yesPacific Journal of Mathematics, 2005
We provide a variety of classes of functions that can be realized as the scalar curvature of the standard three-dimensional half sphere with respect to some metric whose boundary mean curvature is zero. Such a problem is nontrivial, since we have to overcome topological obstructions.

Existence and Multiplicity Results for the Prescribed Webster Scalar Curvature Problem on Three CR Manifolds [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geometric Analysis, 2011
This paper is devoted to the existence of contact forms of prescribed Webster scalar curvature on a $3-$dimensional CR compact manifold locally conformally CR equivalent to the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{3}$ of $\mathbb{C}^{2}$. Due to Kazdan-Warner type obstructions, conditions on the function $H$ to be realized as a Webster scalar curvature have to be ...

Constructing solutions for the prescribed scalar curvature problem via local Pohozaev identities

open access: yesJournal of Differential Equations, 2019
Abstract This paper deals with the following prescribed scalar curvature problem − Δ u = Q ( | y ′ | , y ″ ) u N + 2 N − 2 , u > 0 , y = ( y ′ , y ″ ) ∈ R 2 × R N − 2 , where Q ( y ) is nonnegative and bounded.

On the prescribed scalar curvature problem on S: Part 1, asymptotic estimates and existence results

open access: yesDifferential Geometry and its Applications, 2016
Abstract There have been many works on the problem of finding a conformal metric on the standard sphere S n , n ≥ 3 , when the prescribed scalar curvature function is flat near its critical points with order of flatness β . All the existence results up to this research concern the case 1 β n .

The Dirichlet problem for the equation of prescribed scalar curvature in Minkowski space

open access: yesCalculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations, 2003
In this nice paper the author extend recent work by \textit{P. Bayard} [Calc. Var. Partial Differ. Equ. 18, No. 1, 1--30 (2003; Zbl 1043.53027)] on the Dirichlet problem for the equation of prescribed scalar curvature in Minkowski space. Among other results, the authors prove a maximum principle for the curvature of spacelike admissible solutions of ...

Topological methods for the prescribed Webster Scalar Curvature problem on CR manifolds

open access: yesDifferential Geometry and its Applications, 2010
AbstractWe consider the existence of contact forms of prescribed Webster scalar curvature on a (2n+1)-dimensional CR compact manifold locally conformally CR equivalent to the standard unit sphere S2n+1 of Cn+1. We give some existence results, using dynamical and topological methods involving the study of the critical points at infinity of the ...

Infinitely many solutions for the prescribed scalar curvature problem onSN

open access: yesJournal of Functional Analysis, 2010
AbstractWe consider the following prescribed scalar curvature problem on SN(∗){−ΔSNu+N(N−2)2u=K˜uN+2N−2onSN,u>0 where K˜ is positive and rotationally symmetric. We show that if K˜ has a local maximum point between the poles then Eq. (∗) has infinitely many non-radial positive solutions, whose energy can be made arbitrarily large.

On the prescribed scalar curvature problem in RN, local uniqueness and periodicity

open access: yesJournal de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées, 2015
Abstract We obtain a local uniqueness result for bubbling solutions of the prescribed scalar curvature problem in R N . Such a result implies that some bubbling solutions preserve the symmetry from the scalar curvature K ( y ) .

On the prescribed scalar curvature problem on Sn: The degree zero case

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Mathématique, 2012
In this Note, we consider the problem of the existence of conformal metrics with prescribed scalar curvature on the standard sphere Sn, n⩾3. We give new existence and multiplicity results based on a new Euler–Hopf formula type. Our argument also has the advantage of extending the well known results due to Y. Li (1995) [10].
