Abstract:

We classify compact conformally flat $n$-dimensional manifolds with constant positive scalar curvature and satisfying an optimal integral pinching condition: they are covered isometrically by either $\mathbb{S}^{n}$ with the round metric, $\mathbb{S}^{1} \times \mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ with the product metric or $\mathbb{S}^{1} \times \mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ with a rotationally symmetric Derdzi\'nski metric.
