In this paper,quasi-almost-Einstein metrics on complete manifolds are studied.Two examples are given and several formulas are established.With the help of these formulas,the author proves rigid results on compact or noncompact manifolds,in which some basic tools,such as the weighted volume comparison theorem and the weak maximum principle at infinity,are used.A lower bound estimate for the scalar curvature is also obtained.
Let M be an n-dimensional complete noncompact Riemannian manifold with sectional curvature bounded from below, dμ = e^h(x) dV(x) the weighted measure and △μ,p the weighted p-Laplacian. In this paper we consider the non-linear elliptic equation △μ,pu=-λμ,p|u|^p-2ufor p ∈ (1, 2). We derive a sharp gradient estimate for positive smooth solutions of this equation. As applications, we get a Harnack inequality and a Liouville type theorem..
