A compactness theorem for scalar-flat metrics on manifolds with boundary

Sergio Almaraz

Published 2009-06-04, updated 2010-12-23Version 3

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This paper is concerned with the set of scalar-flat metrics which are in the conformal class of g and have the boundary as a constant mean curvature hypersurface. We prove that this set is compact for dimensions greater than or equal to 7 under the generic condition that the trace-free 2nd fundamental form of the boundary is nonzero everywhere.
