The aim of this book is to give an account of some important new
developments in the study of the Yamabe problem on quaternionic
contact manifolds. This book covers the conformally flat case of
the quaternionic Heisenberg group or sphere, where complete and
detailed proofs are given, together with a chapter on the conformal
curvature tensor introduced very recently by the authors. The
starting point of the considered problems is the well-known
Folland-Stein Sobolev type embedding and its sharp form that is
determined based on geometric analysis. This book also sits at the
interface of the generalization of these fundamental questions
motivated by the Carnot-Caratheodory geometry of quaternionic
contact manifolds, which have been recently the focus of extensive
research motivated by problems in analysis, geometry, mathematical
physics and the applied sciences. Through the beautiful resolution
of the Yamabe problem on model quaternionic contact spaces, the
book serves as an introduction to this field for graduate students
and novice researchers, and as a research monograph suitable for
experts as well.
