In this paper we prove that the CR-Yamabe equation on the Heisenberg group has infinitely many changing-sign solutions. By means of the Cayley transform we will set the problem on the sphere S2n+1; since the functional I associated with the equation does not satisfy the Palais-Smale compactness condition, we will find a suitable closed subspace X on which we can apply the minmax argument for I|X. We generalize the result to any compact contact manifold of K-contact type.

Abstract: | In this paper we prove that the CR-Yamabe equation on the Heisenberg group has infinitely many changing-sign solutions. By means of the Cayley transform we will set the problem on the sphere S2n+1; since the functional I associated with the equation does not satisfy the Palais-Smale compactness condition, we will find a suitable closed subspace X on which we can apply the minmax argument for I|X. We generalize the result to any compact contact manifold of K-contact type. |
