An equation of Monge-Ampere type in conformal geometry, and four-manifolds of positive Ricci curvature
Abstract
We formulate natural conformally invariant conditions on a 4-manifold for the existence of a metric whose Schouten tensor satisfies a quadratic inequality. This inequality implies that the eigenvalues of the Ricci tensor are positively pinched.
