Special Riemannian Metrics and Curvature Functionals

The Dirichlet problem for a fully nonlinear version of the Yamabe problem

speaker: Matthew Gursky (University of Notre Dame)

abstract: I will discuss ongoing work with Q. Han, in which we study the problem of conformally deforming the metric on a manifold with boundary in order to prescribe symmetric functions of the eigenvalues of the Schouten and Ricci tensors. I will also explain the geometrictopological motivation for this work.
