Abstract
|
We propose a definition of the weighted
-curvature of
a smooth metric measure space and justify it in two ways. First, we show that the weighted
-curvature
prescription problem is governed by a fully nonlinear second order elliptic PDE which is
variational when
or the smooth metric measure space is locally conformally flat in
the weighted sense. Second, we show that, in the variational cases,
quasi-Einstein metrics are stable with respect to the total weighted
-curvature
functional. We also discuss related conjectures for weighted Einstein manifolds.
