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.

We study the space of smooth Riemannian structures on compact three-manifolds with boundary that satisfies a critical point equation associated with a boundary value problem, for simplicity, Miao-Tam critical metrics. We provide an estimate to the ar ea of the boundary of Miao-Tam critical metrics on compact three-manifolds. In addition, we obtain a Bochner type formula which enables us to show that a Miao-Tam critical metric on a compact three-manifold with positive scalar curvature must be isometric to a geodesic ball in $Bbb{S}^3.$

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 $+infty$.
In this paper, we prove that a compact quasi-Einstein manifold $(M^n,,g,,u)$ of dimension $ngeq 4$ with boundary $partial M,$ nonnegative sectional curvature and zero radial Weyl tensor is either isometric, up to scaling, to the standard hemisphere $ Bbb{S}^n_+,$ or $g=dt^{2}+psi ^{2}(t)g_{L}$ and $u=u(t),$ where $g_{L}$ is Einstein with nonnegative Ricci curvature. A similar classification result is obtained by assuming a fourth-order vanishing condition on the Weyl tensor. Moreover, a new example is presented in order to justify our assumptions. In addition, the case of dimension $n=3$ is also discussed.
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.
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 th e 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.
