Abstract: In this paper we produce families of Riemannian metrics with positive constant $sigm{a}_k$-curvature equal to $2^{-k}nchoosek$ by performing the connected sum of two given compact {em non degenerate} $n$--dimensional solutions $(M_1,g_1)$ and $(M_2,g_2)$ of the (positive) $sigm{a}_k$-Yamabe problem, provided $2leq2k<n$. The problem is equivalent to solve a second order fully nonlinear elliptic equation.
