In this paper we show how Einstein metrics are naturally described using the quantization of the algebra of functions on a Kahler manifold M. In this setup one interprets M as the phase space itself, equipped with the Poisson brackets…
In this paper, we study the boundary behavior of the negatively curved K\"ahler-Einstein metric attached to a log canonical pair $(X,D)$ such that $K_X+D$ is ample. In the case where $X$ is smooth and $D$ has simple normal crossings support…
We study Einstein deformations of negative K\"ahler Einstein metrics. We relate the second order Einstein deformation theory of negative K\"ahler-Einstein metrics to the complex geometry of the underlying K\"ahler manifold. After suitable…
We prove that the twisted Kahler-Einstein metrics that arise on the base of certain holomorphic fiber space with Calabi-Yau fibers have conical-type singularities along the discriminant locus. These fiber spaces arise naturally when…
This is the first of a series of three papers which provide proofs of results announced recently in arXiv:1210.7494.
We give an elementary argument to compute the $\alpha$-invariant of this Fano 3-fold, which implies the existence of a Kahler-Einstein metric.
Let $(M,g)$ be a compact K\"ahler-Einstein manifold with $c_1 > 0$. Denote by $K\to M$ the canonical line-bundle, with total space $X$, and $X_0$ the singular space obtained by blowing down $X$ along its zero section. We employ a…
We develop a variational calculus for a certain free energy functional on the space of all probability measures on a Kahler manifold X. This functional can be seen as a generalization of Mabuchi's K-energy functional and its twisted…
We consider families of conical K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on rank one horosymmetric Fano manifolds, with decreasing cone angles along a codimension one orbit. At the limit angle, which is positive, we show that the metrics, restricted to…
It is shown that any, possibly singular, Fano variety X admitting a Kahler-Einstein metric is K-polystable, thus confirming one direction of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture in the setting of Q-Fano varieties equipped with their…
Well-known conjectures of Tian predict that existence of canonical Kahler metrics should be equivalent to various notions of properness of Mabuchi's K-energy functional. In some instances this has been verified, especially under restrictive…
We discover a "no semistability at infinity" phenomenon for complete Calabi-Yau metrics asymptotic to cones, by eliminating the possible appearance of an intermediate K-semistable cone in the 2-step degeneration theory developed by…
We study Einstein metrics on smooth compact 4-manifolds with an edge-cone singularity of specified cone angle along an embedded 2-manifold. To do so, we first derive modified versions of the Gauss-Bonnet and signature theorems for arbitrary…
In this expository article we review the problem of finding Einstein metrics on compact K\"ahler manifolds and Sasaki manifolds. In the former half of this article we see that, in the K\"ahler case, the problem fits better with the notion…
In this paper, we prove the conic version of YTD conjecture on log Fano manifolds.
We describe two simple obstructions to the existence of Ricci-flat Kahler cone metrics on isolated Gorenstein singularities or, equivalently, to the existence of Sasaki-Einstein metrics on the links of these singularities. In particular,…
Every compact K\"ahler manifold with negative first Chern class admits a unique metric $g$ such that $\text{Ric}(g) = -g$. Understanding how families of these metrics degenerate gives insight into their geometry and is important for…
We extend Tsuji's iterative construction of complete K\"ahler--Einstein metrics with negative scalar curvature to noncompact K\"ahler manifolds with bounded geometry, using Berndtsson's method from the compact setting. Consequently, given a…
We introduce a notion of uniform Ding stability for a projective manifold with big anticanonical class, and prove that the existence of a unique K\"ahler-Einstein metric on such a manifold implies uniform Ding stability. The main new…
In this new version, we give an affirmative solution to a conjecture of Cheng proposed in 1979 which asserts that the Bergman metric of a smoothly bounded strongly pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb{C}^n, n\geq 2,$ is K\"ahler-Einstein if and…
