Examples of K-unstable Fano manifolds
Abstract
We examine various examples of horosymmetric manifolds which exhibit interesting properties with respect to canonical metrics. In particular, we determine when the blow-up of a quadric along a linear subquadric admits K\"ahler-Einstein metrics, providing infinitely many examples of manifolds with no K\"ahler-Ricci solitons that are not K-semistable. Using a different construction, we provide an infinite family of Fano manifolds with no K\"ahler-Einstein metrics but which admit coupled K\"ahler-Einstein metrics. Finally, we elaborate on the relationship between K\"ahler-Ricci solitons and the more general concept of multiplier Hermitian structures and illustrate this with examples related to the two previous families.
