Let X be a compact Kahler orbifold without \C-codimension-1 singularities. Let D be a suborbifold divisor in X such that D \supset Sing(X) and -pK_X = q[D] for some p, q \in \N with q > p. Assume that D is Fano. We prove the following two…

We use twistor methods to promote Namikawa's universal Poisson deformations of conic affine symplectic singularities to families of hyperk\"ahler structures deforming hyperk\"ahler cone metrics. The metrics we produce are generally…

We prove that any non-Sasakian contact metric (\kappa,\mu)-space admits a canonical \eta-Einstein Sasakian or \eta-Einstein paraSasakian metric. An explicit expression for the curvature tensor fields of those metrics is given and we find…

We show that by taking a certain scaling limit of a Euclideanised form of the Plebanski-Demianski metrics one obtains a family of local toric Kahler-Einstein metrics. These can be used to construct local Sasaki-Einstein metrics in five…

The purpose of this paper is to study *-Ricci tensor on Sasakian manifold. Here, \phi-confomally flat and confomally flat *-\eta-Einstein Sasakian manifold are studied. Next, we consider *-Ricci symmetric conditon on Sasakian manifold.…

We introduce and study the notion of Sasaki--Weyl manifold, which is a natural generalization of the notion of Sasaki manifold. We construct a reduction of Sasaki--Weyl manifolds and we show that it commutes with several reductions already…

We study the degenerations of asymptotically conical Ricci-flat K\"ahler metrics as the K\"ahler class degenerates to a semi-positive class. We show that under appropriate assumptions, the Ricci-flat K\"ahler metrics converge to a…

We extend Calabi ansatz over K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds to Sasaki-Einstein manifolds. As an application we prove the existence of a complete scalar-flat K\"ahler metric on K\"ahler cone manifolds over Sasaki-Einstein manifolds. In…

We introduce a special class of convex rational polyhedral cones which allows to construct generalized Calabi-Yau varieties of dimension $(d + 2(r-1))$, where $r$ is a positive integer and d is the dimension of critical string vacua with…

Motivated by the celebrated Schoen-Yau-Gromov-Lawson surgery theory on metrics of positive scalar curvature, we construct a double manifold associated with a minimal isoparametric hypersurface in the unit sphere. The resulting double…

We study the scalar curvature of K\"ahler metrics that have cone singularities along a divisor, with a particular focus on certain specific classes of such metrics that enjoy some curvature estimates. Our main result is that, on the…

We prove the existence of Sasaki-Einstein metrics on certain simply connected 5-manifolds where until now existence was unknown. All of these manifolds have non-trivial torsion classes. On several of these we show that there are a countable…

In this paper, we introduce a class of Sasaki manifolds with a reductive $G$-group action, called $G$-Sasaki manifolds. By reducing K-energy to a functional defined on a class of convex functions on a moment polytope, we give a criterion…

This work seeks to advance the understanding of the smooth structure of the moduli space of self-dual contact instantons (SDCI) on Sasakian 7-manifolds M. A neighborhood of a smooth point of M is locally modeled on the first cohomological…

This article is an exposition of four loosely related remarks on the geometry of Finsler manifolds with constant positive flag curvature. <p> The first remark is that there is a canonical Kahler structure on the space of geodesics of such a…

In this paper, by combining techniques from Ricci flow and algebraic geometry, we prove the following generalization of the classical uniformization theorem of Riemann surfaces. Given a complete noncompact complex two dimensional K\"ahler…

On Kahler manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded from below, we establish some theorems which are counterparts of some classical theorems in Riemannian geometry, for example, Bishop-Gromov's relative volume comparison, Bonnet-Meyers…

A series of examples of toric Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifolds is constructed. These are submanifolds of toric 3-Sasaki 7-manifolds and such a Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifold corresponds uniquely to a toric 3-Sasaki 7-manifold. This produces examples…

We introduce two new functionals on Sasaki manifolds, inspired by the work of Perelman, which are monotonic along the Sasaki-Ricci flow. We relate their gradient flow, via diffeomorphisms preserving the foliated structure of the manifold,…
