Abstract

A rigid cohomology class on a complex manifold is a class that is represented by a unique closed positive current. The positive current representing a rigid class is also called rigid. For a compact Kahler manifold XX all eigenvectors of hyperbolic automorphisms acting on H1,1(X)H^{1,1}(X) that have non-unit eigenvalues are rigid classes. Such classes are always parabolic, namely, they belong to the boundary of the Kahler cone and have vanishing volume. We study parabolic (1,1)(1,1)-classes on compact hyperkahler manifolds with b27b_2 \geq 7. We show that a parabolic class is rigid if it is not orthogonal to a rational vector with respect to the BBF form. This implies that a general parabolic class on a hyperkahler manifold is rigid.
