In this paper we derive a refined asymptotic expansion, near an isolated singularity, for conformally flat metrics with constant positive Q-curvature and positive scalar curvature. The condition that the metric has constant Q-curvature forces the conformal factor to satisfy a fourth order nonlinear partial differential equation with critical Sobolev growth, whose leading term is the bilaplacian. We model our results on a similar asymptotic expansion for conformally flat, constant scalar curvature metrics proven by Korevaar, Mazzeo, Pacard, and Schoen. Along the way we analyze the linearization of the Q-curvature equation about the Delaunay metrics recently discovered by Frank and K\"onig, which may be of independent interest.

    math.AP 2025-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Any solution with finite total e^u mass of -Δu=K(x)e^u in a punctured disk satisfies u(x)=α ln|x|+O(1) near the singularity, with α>-2, and the same log asymptotics hold for polyharmonic Q-curvature equations in all d...

  2. Local asymptotics for singular solutions to critical Hartree equations

    math.AP 2025-05 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    For the critical Hartree equation, positive singular solutions are claimed to be radially symmetric and to converge near the singularity to a blow-up limit, but the key lower-bound proof is missing.
