Existence and uniqueness for the non-compact Yamabe problem of negative curvature type
Abstract
We study existence and uniqueness results for the Yamabe problem on non-compact manifolds of negative curvature type. Our first existence and uniqueness result concerns those such manifolds which are asymptotically locally hyperbolic. In this context, our result requires only a partial $C^2$ decay of the metric, namely the full decay of the metric in $C^1$ and the decay of the scalar curvature. In particular, no decay of the Ricci curvature is assumed. In our second result we establish that a local volume ratio condition, when combined with negativity of the scalar curvature at infinity, is sufficient for existence of a solution. Our volume ratio condition appears tight. This paper is based on the DPhil thesis of the first author.
