Given a smooth polarized Riemann surface (X, L) endowed with a hyperbolic metric $\omega$ with cusp singularities along a divisor D, we show the L^2 projective embedding of (X, D) defined by L^k is asymptotically almost balanced in a…
Consider a polarized complex manifold (X,L) and a ray of positive metrics on L defined by a positive metric on a test configuration for (X,L). For most of the common functionals in K\"ahler geometry, we prove that the slope at infinity…
Given a compact polarized K\"ahler manifold $X\hookrightarrow\mathbb{CP}^N$, the space of Bergman metrics on $X$, parameterized by $\mathrm{SL}(N+1,\mathbb{C})$, corresponds to a dense set in the space of K\"ahler potentials in the K\"ahler…
In this paper, we prove the equivalence of the existence of extremal Kahler metrics and the properness of the modified K energy on projective bundles. Moreover, we discuss the relations of the lower boundedness of the K energy, the infimum…
Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}^n$ be a bounded domain with smooth boundary, whose Bergman projection $B$ maps the Sobolev space $H^{k_{1}}(\Omega)$ (continuously) into $H^{k_{2}}(\Omega)$. We establish two smoothing results: (i) the full…
Let $(X,\Delta)$ be a smooth complex projective simple normal crossing pair of dimension $n\geq 3$ endowed with an everywhere nondegenerate logarithmic conformal tensor. If $K_X+\Delta$ is not nef, then precisely one of the following…
Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g$, with $g \geq 2$. For each $d <\eta(X)$, where $\eta(X)$ is the gonality of $X$, the symmetric product $\text{Sym}^d(X)$ embeds into $\text{Pic}^d(X)$ by sending an effective…
For a compact Riemann surface $X$ of any genus $g$, let $L$denote the line bundle $K_{X\times X}\otimes {\cal O}_{X\times X}(2\Delta)$ on $X\times X$, where $K_{X\times X}$ is the canonical bundle of $X\times X$ and $\Delta$ is the diagonal…
The geometry of the target space of an N=(2,2) supersymmetry sigma-model carries a generalized Kahler structure. There always exists a real function, the generalized Kahler potential K, that encodes all the relevant local differential…
We establish the convexity of Mabuchi's K-energy functional along weak geodesics in the space of Kahler potentials on a compact Kahler manifold thus confirming a conjecture of Chen and give some applications in Kahler geometry, including a…
We prove that the Bergman kernel function associated to a smooth measure supported on a piecewise-smooth maximally totally real submanifold K in C^n is of polynomial growth (e.g, in dimension one, K is a finite union of transverse Jordan…
Let $M$ be a Carath\'eodory hyperbolic complex manifold. We show that $M$ supports a real-analytic bounded strictly plurisubharmonic function. If $M$ is also complete K\"ahler, we show that $M$ admits the Bergman metric. When $M$ is…
Let X be a projective manifold. We prove that the Mabuchi Energy of X is bounded below on all degenerations in B (the space of Bergman metrics) if and only if it is bounded below uniformly on B.
We study the limits of holonomy representations of complex projective structures on a compact Riemann surface in the Morgan-Shalen compactification of the character variety. We show that the dual R-trees of the quadratic differentials…
This article aims to extend classical homological results about the rational normal curves to analogues in weighted projective spaces. Results include determinantality and nonstandard versions of quadratic generation and the Koszul…
We classify smooth complex projective varieties $X \subset \proj^N$ of dimension $2s+1$ containing a linear subspace $\Lambda$ of dimension $s$ whose normal bundle $N_{\Lambda/X}$ is numerically effective.
For divisors over smooth projective varieties, we show that the volume can be characterized by the duality between pseudo-effective cone of divisors and movable cone of curves. Inspired by this result, we give and study a natural…
We introduce the notion of a ``projective hull'' for subsets of complex projective varieties, parallel to the idea of the polynomial hull in affine varieties. With this concept, a generalization of J. Wermer's classical theorem on the hull…
We compute the first four coefficients of the asymptotic off-diagonal expansion of the Bergman kernel for the N-th power of a positive line bundle on a compact Kaehler manifold, and we show that the coefficient b_1 of the N^{-1/2} term…
We show that the efficiency of a natural pairing between certain projectively invariant Hardy spaces on dual strongly C-linearly convex real hypersurfaces in complex projective space is measured by the norm of the corresponding Leray…
