Prescribing, by conformal transformation, thekth-elementary symmetric polynomial of the Schouten tensor σk(P) to be constant is a generalisation of the Yamabe problem. On compact Riemanniann-manifolds we show that, for 3 ≤k≤n, this prescription equation is an Euler–Lagrange equation of some action if and only if the structure is locally conformally flat.
