Đề tài " Prescribing symmetric functions of the eigenvalues of the Ricci tensor "

We study the problem of conformally deforming a metric to a prescribed symmetric function of the eigenvalues of the Ricci tensor. We prove an existence theorem for a wide class of symmetric functions on manifolds with positive Ricci curvature, provided the conformal class admits an admissible metric. 1. Introduction Let (M n , g) be a smooth, closed Riemannian manifold of dimension n.
