We illustrate an example of a generic, positive function K on a Riemannian manifold to be conformally prescribed as the scalar curvature, for which the corresponding Yamabe type L2-gradient flow exhibits non compact flow lines, while a slight modification of it is compact.

The problem of prescribing conformally the scalar curvature of a closed Riemannian manifold as a given Morse function reduces to solving an elliptic partial differential equation with critical Sobolev exponent. Two ways of attacking this problem cons ist in subcritical approximations or negative pseudo gradient flows. We show under a mild none degeneracy assumption the equivalence of both approaches with respect to zero weak limits, in particular an one to one correspondence of zero weak limit finite energy subcritical blow-up solutions, zero weak limit critical points at infinity of negative type and sets of critical points with negative Laplacian of the function to be prescribed.

Given a closed manifold of positive Yamabe invariant and for instance positive Morse functions upon it, the conformally prescribed scalar curvature problem raises the question, whether or not such functions can by conformally changing the metric be r ealised as the scalar curvature of this manifold. As we shall quantify depending on the shape and structure of such functions, every lack of a solution for some candidate function leads to existence of energetically uniformly bounded solutions for entire classes of related candidate functions.
We study finite-energy blow-ups for prescribed Morse scalar curvatures in both the subcritical and the critical regime. After general considerations on Palais-Smale sequences we determine precise blow up rates for subcritical solutions: in particular the possibility of tower bubbles is excluded in all dimensions. In subsequent papers we aim to establish the sharpness of this result, proving a converse existence statement, together with a one to one correspondence of blowing-up subcritical solutions and {em critical points at infinity}. This analysis will be then applied to deduce new existence results for the geometric problem.
Prescribing conformally the scalar curvature of a Riemannian manifold as a given function consists in solving an elliptic PDE involving the critical Sobolev exponent. One way of attacking this problem consist in using subcritical approximations for t he equation, gaining compactness properties. Together with the results in cite{MM1}, we completely describe the blow-up phenomenon in case of uniformly bounded energy and zero weak limit in positive Yamabe class. In particular, for dimension greater or equal to five, Morse functions and with non-zero Laplacian at each critical point, we show that subsets of critical points with negative Laplacian are in one-to-one correspondence with such subcritical blowing-up solutions.
We consider the problem of prescribing conformally the scalar curvature on compact manifolds of positive Yamabe class in dimension $n geq 5$. We prove new existence results using Morse theory and some analysis on blowing-up solutions, under suitable pinching conditions on the curvature function. We also provide new non-existence results showing the sharpness of some of our assumptions, both in terms of the dimension and of the Morse structure of the prescribed function.
