Conformal scalar curvature rigidity on Riemannian manifolds

Let $(M, \bar g)$ be an $n$-dimensional complete Riemannian manifold. In this paper, we considers the following conformal scalar curvature rigidity problem: Given a compact smooth domain $Ω$ with $\partial Ω$, can one find a conformal metric $g$ whose scalar curvature $R[g]\ge R[\bar g]$ on $Ω$ and the mean curvature $H[g] \ge H[ \bar g]$ on $\partial Ω$ with $\bar g = g$ on $\partial Ω$? We prove that $\bar g = g$ on some smooth domains in a general Riemannian manifold, which is an extension of the previous results given by Qing and Yuan, and Hang and Wang.

Rigidity of noncompact complete Bach-flat manifolds

Let $(M,g)$ be a noncompact complete Bach-flat manifold with positive Yamabe constant. We prove that $(M,g)$ is flat if $(M, g)$ has zero scalar curvature and sufficiently small $L_{2}$ bound of curvature tensor. When $(M, g)$ has nonconstant scalar curvature, we prove that $(M, g)$ is conformal to the flat space if $(M, g)$ has sufficiently small $L_2$ bound of curvature tensor and $L_{4/3}$ bound of scalar curvature.

Rigidity of noncompact complete manifolds with harmonic curvature

Let $(M,g)$ be a noncompact complete $n$-manifold with harmonic curvature and positive Sobolev constant. Assume that $L_2$ norms of Weyl curvature and traceless Ricci curvature are finite. We prove that $(M,g)$ is Einstein if $n \ge 5$ and $L_{n/2}$ norms of Weyl curvature and traceless Ricci curvature are small enough.

Gravitating Self-dual Chern-Simons Solitons

Self-dual solitons of Chern-Simons Higgs theory are examined in curved spacetime. We derive duality transformation of the Einstein Chern-Simons Higgs theory within path integral formalism and study various aspects of dual formulation including derivation of Bogomolnyi type bound. We find all possible rotationally-symmetric soliton configurations carrying magnetic flux and angular momentum when underlying spatial manifolds of these objects comprise a cone, a cylinder, and a two sphere.
