Dual higher-order Bol inequality for normal solutions with lower-bounded Q-curvature

From papers

Let n2n\geq 2 be an even integer, and let uu be a normal solution on Rn\mathbb{R}^n of

(Δ)n2u=Qenu(-\Delta)^{\frac{n}{2}}u=Qe^{nu}

with Q(x)(n1)!Q(x)\geq (n-1)!.

Dual higher-order Bol inequality conjecture. One should have

Rnenu,dxSn,\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}e^{nu}\\,\mathrm{d}x\leq |\mathbb{S}^n|,

with equality if and only if Q(x)(n1)!Q(x)\equiv(n-1)!.

This is presented as the dual version of the upper-bound conjecture. Unlike the special cases established for the first conjecture, no corresponding general resolution is supplied here, so the dual assertion remains open.
