It is shown that on every closed oriented Riemannian 4-manifold $(M,g)$ with positive scalar curvature, $$int_M|W^+_g|^2dmu_{g}geq 2pi^2(2chi(M)+3tau(M))-frac{8pi^2}{|pi_1(M)|},$$ where $W^+_g$, $chi(M)$ and $tau(M)$ respectively denote the self-dual Weyl tensor of $g$, the Euler characteristic and the signature of $M$. This generalizes Gurskys inequality cite{gur} for the case of $b_1(M)>0$ in a much simpler way. We also extend all such lower bounds of the Weyl functional to 4-orbifolds including Gurskys inequalities for the case of $b_2^+(M)>0$ or $delta_gW^+_g=0$, and obtain topological obstructions to the existence of self-dual orbifold metrics of positive scalar curvature.

We determine the space of algebraic pseudo-Hermitian Kahler-Weyl curvature tensors and the space of para-Hermitian Kahler-Weyl curvature tensors in dimension 4 and show that every algebraic possibility is geometrically realizable. We establish the Gr
ay identity for pseudo-Hermitian Weyl manifolds and for para-Hermitian Weyl manifolds in arbitrary dimension.
We study in this paper the fractional Yamabe problem first considered by Gonzalez-Qing on the conformal infinity $(M^n , [h])$ of a Poincare-Einstein manifold $(X^{n+1} , g^+ )$ with either $n = 2$ or $n geq 3$ and $(M^n , [h])$ is locally flat - nam
ely $(M, h)$ is locally conformally flat. However, as for the classical Yamabe problem, because of the involved quantization phenomena, the variational analysis of the fractional one exhibits also a local situation and a global one. Furthermore the latter global situation includes the case of conformal infinities of Poincare-Einstein manifolds of dimension either 2 or of dimension greater than $2$ and which are locally flat, and hence the minimizing technique of Aubin- Schoen in that case clearly requires an analogue of the positive mass theorem of Schoen-Yau which is not known to hold. Using the algebraic topological argument of Bahri-Coron, we bypass the latter positive mass issue and show that any conformal infinity of a Poincare-Einstein manifold of dimension either $n = 2$ or of dimension $n geq 3$ and which is locally flat admits a Riemannian metric of constant fractional scalar curvature.
We prove that a critical metric of the volume functional on a $4$-dimensional compact manifold with boundary satisfying a second-order vanishing condition on the Weyl tensor must be isometric to a geodesic ball in a simply connected space form $mathb
b{R}^{4}$, $mathbb{H}^{4}$ or $mathbb{S}^{4}.$ Moreover, we provide an integral curvature estimate involving the Yamabe constant for critical metrics of the volume functional, which allows us to get a rigidity result for such critical metrics.
For $k ge 2,$ let $M^{4k-1}$ be a $(2k{-}2)$-connected closed manifold. If $k equiv 1$ mod $4$ assume further that $M$ is $(2k{-}1)$-parallelisable. Then there is a homotopy sphere $Sigma^{4k-1}$ such that $M sharp Sigma$ admits a Ricci positive metr
ic. This follows from a new description of these manifolds as the boundaries of explicit plumbings.
We show existence of solutions to the Poisson equation on Riemannian manifolds with positive essential spectrum, assuming a sharp pointwise decay on the source function. In particular we can allow the Ricci curvature to be unbounded from below. In co
mparison with previous works, we can deal with a more general setting both on the spectrum and on the curvature bounds.
