This paper is concerned with the construction of special metrics on non-compact 4-manifolds which arise as resolutions of complex orbifold singularities. Our study is close in spirit to the construction of the hyperkaehler gravitational…
In 1987, the $\alpha$-invariant theorem gave a fundamental criterion for existence of Kahler-Einstein metrics on smooth Fano manifolds. In 2012, Odaka-Sano extended the framework to $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties in terms of K-stability, and…
We give criterions for the existence of toric conical Kahler-Einstein and Kahler-Ricci soliton metrics on any toric manifold in relation to the greatest Ricci and Bakry-Emery-Ricci lower bound. We also show that any two toric manifolds with…
Seiberg-Witten theory is used to obtain new obstructions to the existence of Einstein metrics on 4-manifolds with conical singularities along an embedded surface. In the present article, the cone angle is required to be of the form 2(pi)/p,…
The total space of the tangent bundle of a K\"ahler manifold admits a canonical K\"ahler structure. Parallel translation identifies the space ${\Bbb{T}}$ of oriented affine lines in ${\Bbb{R}}^3$ with the tangent bundle of $S^2$. Thus, the…
We prove that for any smooth polarized complex $n$-dimensional manifold $(X, L_X)$ which admits an extremal K\"ahler metric in $c_1(L_X)$, and for any integer $k$ large enough (in terms of a bound depending on $(X, L_X)$), the…
We classify simply connected compact Sasaki manifolds of dimension $2n+1$ with positive transverse bisectional curvature. In particular, the K\"ahler cone corresponding to such manifolds must be bi-holomorphic to $\C^{n+1}\backslash \{0\}$.…
Recently Johnson and Koll\'ar determined the complete list of anticanonically embedded quasi smooth log del Pezzo surfaces in weighted projective 3-spaces. They also proved that many of those surfaces admit a K\"ahler-Einstein metric, and…
The wonderful compactification $X_m$ of a symmetric homogeneous space of type AIII$(2,m)$ for each $m \geq 4$ is Fano, and its blowup $Y_m$ along the unique closed orbit is Fano if $m \geq 5$ and Calabi-Yau if $m = 4$. Using a combinatorial…
We present classical and recent results on K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on compact complex manifolds, focusing on existence, obstructions and relations to algebraic geometric notions of stability (K-stability). These are the notes for the SMI…
In this paper, we study constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (cscK) metrics on complete non-compact K\"ahler--Einstein manifolds. We give sufficient conditions under which a cscK perturbation of a K\"ahler--Einstein metric must remain…
This is the second of two papers studying both the geometric structure of Fano fibrations and the application to K\"ahler-Ricci flows developing a singularity in finite time. We assume that the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a compact K\"ahler…
This manuscript served as lecture notes for a mini-course in the 2016 Southern California Geometric Analysis Seminar Winter School. The goal is to give a quick introduction to Kahler geometry by describing the recent resolution of Tian's…
We present a renormalized Gauss-Bonnet formula for approximate Kahler-Einstein metrics on compact complex manifolds with pseudo-Einstein CR boundaries. The boundary integral is given explicitly, and it is proved that it gives a…
Cone spherical metrics, defined on compact Riemann surfaces, are conformal metrics with constant curvature one and finitely many cone singularities. Such a metric is termed \textit{reducible} if a developing map of the metric has monodromy…
We define K-stability of a polarized Sasakian manifold relative to a maximal torus of automorphisms. The existence of a Sasaki-extremal metric in the polarization is shown to imply that the polarization is K-semistable. Computing this…
Let $\pi: \mathcal{X}^* \rightarrow B^*$ be an algebraic family of compact K\"ahler manifolds of complex dimension $n$ with negative first Chern class over a punctured disc $B^*\in \mathbb{C}$. Let $g_t$ be the unique K\"ahler-Einstein…
This article is a summary of some of the author's work on Sasaki-Einstein geometry. A rather general conjecture in string theory known as the AdS/CFT correspondence relates Sasaki-Einstein geometry, in low dimensions, to superconformal…
We prove two new results on the K-polystability of Q-Fano varieties based on purely algebro-geometric arguments. The first one says that any K-semistable log Fano cone has a special degeneration to a uniquely determined K-polystable log…
We study equivalence of invariant metrics on noncompact K\"ahler manifolds with a complete Bergman metric of bounded curvature. Especially only the boundedness of the ratio between Bergman kernel and the $n$-times wedge product of Bergman…
