Description
Summary:Inspired by the work of Fischer-Marsden [Duke Math. J. 42 (1975), 519-547], we study in this paper the deformation of the weighted scalar curvature. By studying the kernel of the formal ²ϕ-adjoint for the linearization of the weighted scalar curvature, we prove several geometric results. In particular, we define a weighted vacuum static space and study locally conformally flat weighted vacuum static spaces. We then prove some stability results of the weighted scalar curvature on flat spaces. Finally, we consider the prescribed weighted scalar curvature problem on closed smooth metric measure spaces.
