Remark on a conjecture of conformal transformations of Riemannian manifolds
/ Authors
/ Abstract
Ejiri gave a negative answer to a conjecture of Lichnerowicz concerning Riemannian manifolds with constant scalar curvature admitting an infinitesimal non isometric conformal transformation. With this aim he constructed a warped product of a circle of lenght $T$ and a compact manifold. But he omitted in his analysis the condition that $T$ must to be big enough. Here we give an explicit sharp bound $T_0 < T$ that will make the proof complete. Our presentation is self-contained and mainly uses bifurcation techniques. Moreover, we show that there are other such examples and contribute some results to the classification of these manifolds.
