Conformal Deformations

In this paper, we study conformal deformations and [Formula: see text]-conformal deformations of Ricci-directional and second type scalar curvatures on Finsler manifolds. Then we introduce the best equation to study the Yamabe problem on Finsler manifolds. Finally, we restrict conformal deformations of metrics to [Formula: see text]-conformal deformations and derive the Yamabe functional and the Yamabe flow in Finsler geometry.

AbstractThe class of generalized P-reducible manifolds (briefly GP-reducible manifolds) was first introduced by Tayebi and his collaborates [1]. This class of Finsler manifolds contains the classes of P-reducible manifolds, C-reducible manifolds and Landsberg manifolds. We prove that every compact GP-reducible manifold with positive or negative character is a Randers manifold. The norm of Cartan torsion plays an important role for studying immersion theory in Finsler geometry. We find the relation between the norm of Cartan torsion, mean Cartan torsion, Landsberg and mean Landsberg curvatures of the class of GP-reducible manifolds. Finally, we prove that every GP-reducible manifold admitting a concurrent vector field reduces to a weakly Landsberg manifold.

AbstractIn this note, we study a new Finslerian quantity Ĉ defined by the Riemannian curvature. We prove that the new Finslerian quantity is a non-Riemannian quantity for a Finsler manifold with dimension n = 3. Then we study Finsler metrics of scalar curvature. We find that the Ĉ-curvature is closely related to the flag curvature and the H-curvature. We show that Ĉ-curvature gives, a measure of the failure of a Finsler metric to be of weakly isotropic flag curvature. We also give a simple proof of the Najafi-Shen-Tayebi' theorem.

Yamabe Soliton

In this paper, we deal with a generalization of the Yamabe flow named conformal geometry flow. Firstly we derive a monotone formula of the Einstein-Hilbert functional under the conformal geometry flow. Then we prove the properties that the conformal geometry solitons and conformal geometry breather both have constant scalar curvature at each time by using the modified Einstein-Hilbert function. Finally we present some properties of Yamabe solitons in compact manifold and noncompact manifolds through the equation of Yamabe soliton.

The existence of a homogeneous geodesic in homogeneous Finsler manifolds was positively answered in previous papers. However, the result is not optimal. In the present paper, this result is refined and the existence of at least two homogeneous geodesics in any homogeneous Finsler manifold is proved. In a previous paper, examples of Randers metrics which admit just two homogeneous geodesics were constructed, which shows that the present result is the best possible.

Let [Formula: see text] be a compact complex manifold of complex dimension [Formula: see text] endowed with a Hermitian metric [Formula: see text]. The Chern-Yamabe problem is to find a conformal metric of [Formula: see text] such that its Chern scalar curvature is constant. In this paper, we prove that the solution to the Chern-Yamabe problem is unique under some conditions. On the other hand, we obtain some results related to the Chern-Yamabe soliton.

AbstractAs a generalization of the Yamabe problem, Hebey and Vaugon considered the equivariant Yamabe problem: for a subgroup G of the isometry group, find a G-invariant metric whose scalar curvature is constant in a given conformal class. In this paper, we study the equivariant Yamabe problem with boundary.
