Integrability of scalar curvature and normal metric on conformally flat manifolds
Abstract
On a manifold (Rn ,e2u | dx|2), we say u is normal if the Q-curvature equation that u satisfies (- Δ) n/2 u =Qgenu can be written as the integral form u (x) = 1/cn ∫Rn log |y|/|x-y| Qg (y)e nu (y) dy + C. In this paper, we show that the integrability assumption on the negative part of the scalar curvature implies the metric is normal. As an application, we prove a bi-Lipschitz equivalence theorem for conformally flat metrics.
