Remarks on GJMS operator of order six

Abstract: We study analysis aspects of the sixth order GJMS operator

P_{g}^{6}

. Under conformal normal coordinates around a point, the expansions of Green's function of

P_{g}^{6}

with pole at this point are presented. As a starting point of the study of

P_{g}^{6}

, we manage to give some existence results of prescribed

Q

-curvature problem on Einstein manifolds. One among them is that for

n g e q 10

, let

(M^{n}, g)

be a closed Einstein manifold of positive scalar curvature and

f

a smooth positive function in

M

. If the Weyl tensor is nonzero at a maximum point of

f

and

f

satisfies a vanishing order condition at this maximum point, then there exists a conformal metric

i l d e g

of

g

such that its

Q

-curvature

Q_{i l d e g}^{6}

equals

f

.
