This equation extends to the $p$-Laplacian the equation of the prescribed scalar curvature. A minimizing sequence is constructed which converges to a non trivial solution belonging to $C^{1,alpha }(K)$ for any compact set $Ksubset M$ and some $alpha in (0,1)$. %K Complete manifolds %K p-Laplacian %K critical Sobolev exponent. %U http://ejde.math.txstate.edu/Volumes/2004/147/abstr.html
