Abstract

Abstract We study the existence of conformal metrics on noncompact Riemannian manifolds with noncompact boundary, which are complete as metric spaces and have negative constant scalar curvature in the interior and negative constant mean curvature on the boundary. These metrics are constructed on smooth manifolds obtained by removing d-dimensional submanifolds from certain n-dimensional compact spaces locally modelled on generalized solid cones. We prove the existence of such metrics if and only if d > n - 2 2 {d>\frac{n-2}{2}} . Our main theorem is inspired by the classical results by Aviles–McOwen and Loewner–Nirenberg, known in the literature as the “singular Yamabe problem”.
