This L^p-L^2-implication provides explicit constants in the surgery-monotonicity formula for the smooth Yamabe invariant in a previous article of the authors. As an application we see that the smooth Yamabe invariant of any 2-connected compact 7-dimensional manifold is at least 74.5. Similar conclusions follow in dimension 8 and in dimensions at least 11.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-11-11T15:50:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35J60", "35P30", "57R65", "58J50", "58C40" ], "keywords": [ "yamabe equation", "smooth yamabe invariant", "n-dimensional non-compact riemannian manifolds", "square-integrability", "explicit constants" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1111.2780A" } } }
