    The paper under review is concerned with the study of conformal deformation problems on manifolds. The authors prove a Dirichlet principle when the induced metric on the boundary is fixed. It is also established an Obata-type theorem on the upper hemisphere. A key tool in the proofs is the use of some related conformally covariant multilinear operators.
