For a homotopically energy-minimizing map $u: N^3to S^1$ on a compact, oriented $3$-manifold $N$ with boundary, we establish an identity relating the average Euler characteristic of the level sets $u^{-1}{theta}$ to the scalar curvature of $N$ and the mean curvature of the boundary $partial N$. As an application, we obtain some natural geometric estimates for the Thurston norm on $3$-manifolds with boundary, generalizing results of Kronheimer-Mrowka and the second named author from the closed setting. By combining these techniques with results from minimal surface theory, we obtain moreover a characterization of the Thurston norm via scalar curvature and the harmonic norm for general closed, oriented three-manifolds, extending Kronheimer and Mrowkas characterization for irreducible manifolds to arbitrary topologies.

For a harmonic map $u:M^3to S^1$ on a closed, oriented $3$--manifold, we establish the identity $$2pi int_{thetain S^1}chi(Sigma_{theta})geq frac{1}{2}int_{thetain S^1}int_{Sigma_{theta}}(|du|^{-2}|Hess(u)|^2+R_M)$$ relating the scalar curvature $R_M
$ of $M$ to the average Euler characteristic of the level sets $Sigma_{theta}=u^{-1}{theta}$. As our primary application, we extend the Kronheimer--Mrowka characterization of the Thurston norm on $H_2(M;mathbb{Z})$ in terms of $|R_M^-|_{L^2}$ and the harmonic norm to any closed $3$--manifold containing no nonseparating spheres. Additional corollaries include the Bray--Brendle--Neves rigidity theorem for the systolic inequality $(min R_M)sys_2(M)leq 8pi$, and the well--known result of Schoen and Yau that $T^3$ admits no metric of positive scalar curvature.
We study the problem of deforming a Riemannian metric to a conformal one with nonzero constant scalar curvature and nonzero constant boundary mean curvature on a compact manifold of dimension $ngeq 3$. We prove the existence of such conformal metrics
in the cases of $n=6,7$ or the manifold is spin and some other remaining ones left by Escobar. Furthermore, in the positive Yamabe constant case, by normalizing the scalar curvature to be $1$, there exists a sequence of conformal metrics such that their constant boundary mean curvatures go to $+infty$.
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 isome
tric 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.
We study (transverse) scalar curvature type equation on compact Sasaki manifolds, in view of recent breakthrough of Chen-Cheng cite{CC1, CC2, CC3} on existence of Kahler metrics with constant scalar curvature (csck) on compact Kahler manifolds. Follo
wing their strategy, we prove that given a Sasaki structure (with Reeb vector field and complex structure on its cone fixed ), there exists a Sasaki structure with transverse constant scalar curvature (cscs) if and only if the $mathcal{K}$-energy is reduced proper modulo the identity component of the automorphism group which preserves both the Reeb vector field and transverse complex structure. Technically, the proof mainly consists of two parts. The first part is a priori estimates for scalar curvature type equations which are parallel to Chen-Chengs results in cite{CC2, CC3} in Sasaki setting. The second part is geometric pluripotential theory on a compact Sasaki manifold, building up on profound results in geometric pluripotential theory on Kahler manifolds. There are notable, and indeed subtle differences in Sasaki setting (compared with Kahler setting) for both parts (PDE and pluripotential theory). The PDE part is an adaption of deep work of Chen-Cheng cite{CC1, CC2, CC3} to Sasaki setting with necessary modifications. While the geometric pluripotential theory on a compact Sasaki manifold has new difficulties, compared with geometric pluripotential theory in Kahler setting which is very intricate. We shall present the details of geometric pluripotential on Sasaki manifolds in a separate paper cite{HL} (joint work with Jun Li).
The Han-Li conjecture states that: Let $(M,g_0)$ be an $n$-dimensional $(ngeq 3)$ smooth compact Riemannian manifold with boundary having positive (generalized) Yamabe constant and $c$ be any real number, then there exists a conformal metric of $g_0$
with scalar curvature $1$ and boundary mean curvature $c$. Combining with Z. C. Han and Y. Y. Lis results, we answer this conjecture affirmatively except for the case that $ngeq 8$, the boundary is umbilic, the Weyl tensor of $M$ vanishes on the boundary and has a non-zero interior point.
