Blow-up phenomena for the constant scalar curvature and constant boundary mean curvature equation

Abstract

We first present a warped product manifold with boundary to show the non-uniqueness of the positive constant scalar curvature and positive constant boundary mean curvature equation. Next, we construct a smooth counterexample to show that the compactness of the set of “lower energy” solutions to the above equation fails when the dimension of the manifold is not less than 62.
