On conformal invariants for elliptic systems with multiple critical exponents

In this article we study multiple solutions of the prescribed curvatures problem for a compact Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary and with indefinite signs of the energy function and nonlinearities. We generalize the conception of the critical Palais–Smale level and find new type of conformally invariant necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of multiple solutions of the problem.
