Prescribed Ricci curvature near an Einstein manifold with boundary
Let <inline-formula content-type="math/mathml"> <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" alttext="left-parenthesis upper M comma g right-parenthesis"> <mml:semantics> <mml:mrow> <mml:mo stretchy="false">(</mml:mo> <mml:mi>M</mml:mi> <mml:mo>,</mml:mo> <mml:mi>g</mml:mi> <mml:mo stretchy="false">)</mml:mo> </mml:mrow> <mml:annotation encoding="application/x-tex">(M,g)</mml:annotation> </mml:semantics> </mml:math> </inline-formula> be a compact Einstein Riemannian manifold with boundary. We show that under certain conditions, the map that associates to a metric on <inline-formula content-type="math/mathml"> <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" alttext="upper M"> <mml:semantics> <mml:mi>M</mml:mi> <mml:annotation encoding="application/x-tex">M</mml:annotation> </mml:semantics> </mml:math> </inline-formula> its Ricci curvature, its induced conformal class on the boundary, and its mean curvature on the boundary is locally invertible near <inline-formula content-type="math/mathml"> <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" alttext="g"> <mml:semantics> <mml:mi>g</mml:mi> <mml:annotation encoding="application/x-tex">g</mml:annotation> </mml:semantics> </mml:math> </inline-formula> . The contravariant Ricci operator as well as other operators such as the Einstein operator are also studied.
