Abstract: We study asymptotic behaviors of positive solutions to the Yamabe equation and the sigmak-Yamabe equation near isolated singular points and establish expansions up to arbitrary orders. Such results generalize an earlier pioneering work by Caffarelli, Gidas, and Spruck, and a work by Korevaar, Mazzeo, Pacard, and Schoen, on the Yamabe equation, and a work by Han, Li, and Teixeira on the sigmak-Yamabe equation. The study is based on a combination of classification of global singular solutions and an analysis of linearized operators at these global singular solutions. Such linearized equations are uniformly elliptic near singular points for 1leqkleqn/2 and become degenerate for n/2<kleqn. In a significant portion of the paper, we establish a degree 1 expansion for the sigmak-Yamabe equation for n/2<k<n, generalizing a similar result for k=1 by Korevaar, Mazzeo, Pacard, and Schoen and for 2leqkleqn/2 by Han, Li, and Teixeira.
