In K\"ahler geometry, the Donaldson-Fujiki moment map picture interprets the scalar curvature of a K\"ahler metric as a moment map on the space of compatible almost complex structures on a fixed symplectic manifold. In this paper, we…
We revisit generalized K$\ddot{a}$hler reduction introduced by Lin and Tolman in \cite{LT} from a viewpoint of geometric invariant theory. It is shown that in the strong Hamiltonian case introduced in the present paper, many well-known…
We show that the blow-up of a generalized Kahler 4-manifold in a nondegenerate complex point admits a generalized Kahler metric. As with the blow-up of complex surfaces, this metric may be chosen to coincide with the original outside a…
In this paper we obtain a stability theorem of generalized Kahler structures with one pure spinor under small deformations of generalized complex structures. (This is analogous to the stability theorem of Kahler manifolds by…
The paper studies the deformation theory of a holomorphic surjective map from a normal compact complex space to a compact Kaehler manifold and describes the component of the space of holomorphic maps, generalizing results in the projective…
We present an infinite-dimensional hyperk\"ahler reduction that extends the classical moment map picture of Fujiki and Donaldson for the scalar curvature of K\"ahler metrics. We base our approach on an explicit construction of hyperk\"ahler…
Let M be a Kaehler manifold with a free, holomorphic and Hamiltonian action of the standard n-torus T. We give a simple, explicit and canonical formula for the Kaehler potential on the Kaehler reduction of M. As a consequence we can derive…
Let (M,g) be an oriented Lorentzian 4-manifold, and consider the space S of oriented, unparameterized time-like 2-surfaces in M (string world-sheets) with fixed boundary conditions. Then the infinite-dimensional manifold S carries a natural…
We define a certain compactifiction of the general linear group and give a modular description for its points with values in arbitrary schemes. This is a first step in the construction of a higher rank generalization of Gieseker's…
We give a new characterization of generalized K\"ahler structures in terms of their corresponding complex Dirac structures. We then give an alternative proof of Hitchin's partial unobstructedness for holomorphic Poisson structures. Our main…
We use the twistorial construction of D-instantons in Calabi-Yau compactifications of type II string theory to compute an explicit expression for the metric on the hypermultiplet moduli space affected by these non-perturbative corrections.…
We develop a new framework for the study of generalized Killing spinors, where generalized Killing spinor equations, possibly with constraints, can be formulated equivalently as systems of partial differential equations for a polyform…
The construction of Atiyah, Drinfeld, Hitchin, and Manin [ADHM78] provided complete description of all instantons on Euclidean four-space. It was extended by Kronheimer and Nakajima to instantons on ALE spaces, resolutions of orbifolds…
We discuss a natural extension of the K\"ahler reduction of Fujiki and Donaldson, which realises the scalar curvature of K\"ahler metrics as a moment map, to a hyperk\"ahler reduction. Our approach is based on an explicit construction of…
We survey some recent developments in the asymptotic geometry of the Hitchin moduli space, starting with an introduction to the Hitchin moduli space and hyperk\"ahler geometry.
It is known that the almost-Kaehler anti-self-dual metrics on a given 4-manifold sweep out an open subset in the moduli space of anti-self-dual metrics. However, we show here by example that this subset is not generally closed, and so need…
We continue the study of blow-ups in generalized complex geometry with the blow-up theory for generalized K\"ahler manifolds. The natural candidates for submanifolds to be blown-up are those which are generalized Poisson for one of the two…
We describe mirror manifolds in dimensions different from the familiar case of complex threefolds. We emphasize the simplifying features of dimension three and supply more robust methods that do not rely on such special characteristics and…
We study reduction of generalized complex structures. More precisely, we investigate the following question. Let $J$ be a generalized complex structure on a manifold $M$, which admits an action of a Lie group $G$ preserving $J$. Assume that…
