We prove some results on the existence and compactness of solutions of a fractional Nirenberg problem. The crucial ingredients of our proofs are the understanding of the blow up profiles and a Liouville theorem.
Dealing with the generalized Calabi-Yau equation proposed by Gromov on closed almost-Kähler manifolds, we extend to arbitrary dimension a non-existence result proved in complex dimension .
We show that there exists exactly one homothety class of invariant Einstein metrics on each space defined below.
A regular normal parabolic geometry of type on a manifold gives rise to sequences of invariant differential operators, known as the curved version of the BGG resolution. These sequences are constructed from the normal covariant derivative on the corresponding tractor bundle , where is the normal Cartan connection. The first operator in the sequence is overdetermined and it is well known that yields the prolongation of this operator in the homogeneous case . Our first main result...
We prove that every generalized Cartan hypersurface satisfies the so called Roter type equation. Using this fact, we construct a particular class of generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes.
