Place: | Room 202, Astro-Math. Building |
Abstract: | On manifolds of dimension 4, Q curvature is a natural extension of the Gaussian curvature on compact surfaces. In this talk, we will survey some analytic and geometric aspects and some recent study of Q curvature on manifolds of other dimensions. We will also discuss the study of the fractional Q curvature and connection to a class of non-local operators in conformal geometry. |
