On établit la compacité des solutions du problème de Yamabe sur toute variété riemannienne, régulière compacte connexe (non conformément équivalente à la sphère standard) de dimension n⩽7. Le même résultat est valable en dimension n⩾8 sous une hypothèse supplémentaire.

We establish compactness of solutions to the Yamabe problem on any smooth compact connected Riemannian manifold (not conformally diffeomorphic to standard spheres) of dimension n⩽7 as well as on any manifold of dimension n⩾8 under some additional hypothesis.
