On a compact $n$-dimensional manifold, it is well known that a critical metric of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with unit volume is Einstein. It has been conjectured that a critical metric of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with constant scalar curvature of unit volume, will be Einstein. This conjecture, proposed in 1987 by Besse, has not been resolved except when $M$ has harmonic curvature or the metric is Bach flat. In this paper, we prove some gap properties under divergence-free Bach tensor condition for $ngeq 5$, and a similar condition for $n=4$.

On a compact $n$-dimensional manifold $M$, it is well known that a critical metric of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with unit volume, is Einstein. It has been conjectured that a critical metric of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with constant scalar curvature of unit volume, will also be Einstein. It was shown that this conjecture is true when $M$ together with a critical metric has harmonic curvature or the metric is Bach flat. In this paper, we tried to prove this conjecture with a divergence-free Bach tensor.
In this paper, we study vacuum static spaces with the complete divergence of the Bach tensor and Weyl tensor. First, we prove that the vanishing of complete divergence of the Bach tensor and Weyl tensor implies the harmonicity of the metric, and we present examples in which these conditions do not imply Bach flatness. As an application, we prove the non-existence of multiple black holes in vacuum static spaces with zero scalar curvature. On the other hand, we prove the Besse conjecture under these conditions, which are weaker than harmonicity or Bach flatness. Moreover, we show a rigidity result for vacuum static spaces and find a sufficient condition for the metric to be Bach-flat.
In the first part of this paper, we prove the extensibility of an arbitrary boundary metric to a positive scalar curvature (PSC) metric inside for a compact manifold with boundary, which completely solves an open problem due to Gromov (see Question ref{extension1}). Then we introduce a fill-in invariant (see Definition ref{fillininvariant}) and discuss its relationship with the positive mass theorems for asymptotically flat (AF) and asymptotically hyperbolic (AH) manifolds. Moreover, we prove that the positive mass theorem for AH manifolds implies that for AF manifolds. In the end, we give some estimates for the fill-in invariant, which provide some partially affirmative answers to Gromovs conjectures formulated in cite{Gro19} (see Conjecture ref{conj0} and Conjecture ref{conj1} below)
We provide a general Bochner type formula which enables us to prove some rigidity results for $V$-static spaces. In particular, we show that an $n$-dimensional positive static triple with connected boundary and positive scalar curvature must be isometric to the standard hemisphere, provided that the metric has zero radial Weyl curvature and satisfies a suitable pinching condition. Moreover, we classify $V$-static spaces with non-negative sectional curvature.
Leon Green obtained remarkable rigidity results for manifolds of positive scalar curvature with large conjugate radius and/or injectivity radius. Using $C^{k,alpha}$ convergence techniques, we prove several differentiable stability and sphere theor
