Abstract: 

In this talk, I will be presenting results on the compactness of Yamabe problems on general
three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with boundaries. The Yamabe problem is a
classical topic of study in conformal geometry that concerns the existence of metrics with
constant curvatures. In my presentation, I will be focusing on the cases with constant scalar
curvature in the interior and constant boundary mean curvature as well. This involves a
blow-up argument for nonlinear partial differential equations with critical nonlinearities both in
the interior and on the boundary. The talk is based on joint work with Sergio Almaraz
(https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.07088) and with both S. Almaraz and Olivaine Queiroz
(https://arxiv.org/abs/1807.08406).
