A Compactness Theorem for Locally Conformally Flat Riemannian Manifolds

In this paper, we prove that if a complete locally conformally flat Riemannian manifold with positive Yamabe invariant has a positive lower bound on its scalar curvature, an upper bound on its Ricci curvature, and the Lq norm (q⩾2) of the traceless Ricci curvature is finite, then it is compact.

Abstract

In this paper, we prove that if a complete locally conformally flat Riemannian manifold with positive Yamabe invariant has a positive lower bound on its scalar curvature, an upper bound on its Ricci curvature, and the Lq norm (q⩾2) of the traceless Ricci curvature is finite, then it is compact.
