Abstract: Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$. The $\sigma_k$-Yamabe problem is concerned with finding metric of constant $\sigma_k$-curvature in the conformal class of g. The compactness of the $\sigma_k$-Yamabe problem is still widely open when $n/2> k\geq 2$. We will present a non-compactness result for the $\sigma_2$-Yamabe problem when n is large. This is a joint work with Bin Deng and Juncheng Wei.
