Invariant Solutions of the Yamabe equation on the Koiso-Cao Soliton

Abstract

We consider the non-trivial Ricci soliton on $\mathbb{CP}^2\#\overline{\mathbb{CP}^2}$ constructed by Koiso and Cao. It is a K\"ahler metric invariant by the $U(2)$ action on $\mathbb{CP}^2\#\overline{\mathbb{CP}^2}$. We study its Yamabe equation and prove it has exactly one $U(2)-$invariant solution up to homothecies.
