Schoen's Yamabe invariant conjecture for closed 3-manifolds
Let be a closed -manifold that admits a constant-curvature metric . Here denotes the Yamabe invariant of , and denotes the normalized Einstein-Hilbert energy of . Schoen's conjecture. If admits a constant-curvature metric , then
This conjecture concerns the relationship between the Yamabe invariant and constant-curvature metrics on closed -manifolds, and is described as one of the most fundamental unsolved problems related to Yamabe invariants.
