On Deformations of Fano Manifolds

Abstract

In this paper we provide new necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on small deformations of a Fano K\"ahler-Einstein manifold. We also show that the Weil-Petersson metric can be approximated by the Ricci curvatures of the canonical L2L^2 metrics on the direct image bundles. In addition, we describe the plurisubharmonicity of the energy functional of harmonic maps on the Kuranishi space of the deformation of compact K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds of general type.

Comments

A new equivalent condition has been added to Theorem 1.1. In Theorem 1.2, we removed the assumption on the automorphism group which appeared in the previous version
