### The axisymmetric σk-Nirenberg problem

Abstract:

We study the problem of prescribing $\sigma_k$-curvature for a conformal metric on the standard sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$ with $2 \leq k < n/2$ and $n \geq 5$ in axisymmetry. Compactness, non-compactness, existence and non-existence results are proved in terms of the behaviors of the prescribed curvature function $K$ near the north and the south poles. For example, consider the case when the north and the south poles are local maximum points of $K$ of flatness order $\beta \in [2,n)$. We prove...
