Geometric Flows and Geometric Operators

seminar: Metrics of constant Q-curvature on R^2m and applications

speaker: Luca Martinazzi (Università degli Studi di Padova)

abstract: We shall discuss metrics on R^2m which are conformal to the Euclidean metric and have finite volume and constant Q-curvature (positive, negative or zero). We will give some geometric and analytic conditions under which such metrics have a special (spherical) shape. We will also see how this results can be used to prove compactness results for sequences of metrics of prescribed Q-curvature.
