Blow-up Solutions for Linear Perturbations of the Yamabe Equation
For a smooth, compact Riemannian manifold (M,g) of dimension $N \geg 3$, we are interested in the critical equation $$\Delta_g u+(N-2/4(N-1) S_g+\epsilon h)u=u^{N+2/N-2} in M, u>0 in M,$$ where \Delta_g is the Laplace--Beltrami operator, S_g is the Scalar curvature of (M,g), $h\in C^{0,\alpha}(M)$, and $\epsilon$ is a small parameter.
