Abstract

We investigate different concentration–compactness and blow-up phenomena related to the Q-curvature in arbitrary even dimension. We first treat the case of an open domain in {R^2}, then that of a closed manifold and, finally, the particular case of the sphere {S^2m}. In all cases we allow the sign of the Q-curvature to vary, and show that in the case of a closed manifold, contrary to the case of open domains in {R^2m}, blow-up phenomena can occur only at points of positive Q-curvature. As a consequence, on a locally conformally flat manifold of non-positive Euler characteristic we always have compactness.
