ABSTRACT
In this note we study the conformal metrics of constant Q curvature on closed locally conformally flat manifolds. We prove that for a closed locally conformally flat manifold of dimension n = 5 and with Poincarï¿½ exponent less than $$\frac {n-4}2$$ , the set of conformal metrics of positive constant Q and positive scalar curvature is compact in the C8 topology.

In this article, we show that the Newton transformations of the shape operator can be applied successfully to foliated manifolds. Using these transformations, we generalize known integral formulae (due to Britoï¿½Langevinï¿½Rosenberg, Ranjan, Walczak, etc.) for foliations of codimension...
