Abstract: The Paneitz operator is a fourth order differential operator which arises in conformal geometry and satisfies a certain covariance property. Associated to it is a fourth order curvature -- the \$Q\$-curvature. We prove the existence of a continuum of conformal radially symmetric complete metrics in hyperbolic space \$\mathbb{H}^n\$, \$n>4\$, all having the same constant \$Q\$-curvature. Moreover, similar results can be shown also for suitable non-constant prescribed \$Q\$-curvature functions.

Keywords: Paneitz equation, complete conformal metric, hyperbolic space, prescribed Q-curvature
