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…

The Ricci Calabi functional is a functional on the space of K\"ahler metrics of Fano manifolds. Its critical points are called generalized K\"ahler Einstein metrics. In this article, we show that the Hessian of the Ricci Calabi functional…

For Fano varieties, significant progress has been made recently in the study of $K$-stability, while the understanding of the weaker but more algebraic concept of $(-K)$-slope stability remains intricate. For instance, a conjecture…

Let $(M,g)$ be a $C^{\infty}$ compact, boudaryless connected manifold without conjugate points with quasi-convex universal covering and divergent geodesic rays. We show that the geodesic flow of $(M,g)$ is $C^{2}$-structurally stable from…

We prove that constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metric "adjacent" to a fixed K\"ahler class is unique up to isomorphism. This extends the uniqueness theorem of Donaldson and Chen-Tian, and formally fits into the infinite dimensional G.I.T…

Over the space of K\"ahler metrics associated to a fixed K\"ahler class, we first prove the lower bound of the energy functional $\tilde E^\beta$, then we provide the criterions of the geodesics rays to detect the lower bound of $\tilde…

We numerically calculate Perelman's entropy for a variety of canonical metrics on $\mathbb{CP}^{1}$-bundles over products of Fano K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds. The metrics investigated are Einstein metrics, K\"ahler-Ricci solitons and…

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…

The main goal of this paper is to present results of existence and non-existence of convex functions on Riemannian manifolds and, in the case of the existence, we associate such functions to the geometry of the manifold. Precisely, we prove…

We prove that the four-dimensional blowdown shrinking Ricci soliton constructed by Feldman-Ilmanen-Knopf is strictly linearly stable in the sense of Cao-Hamilton-Ilmanen. This provides the first known example of a non-cylindrical linearly…

We prove dynamical stability and instability theorems for Poincar\'{e}-Einstein metrics under the Ricci flow. Our key tool is a variant of the expander entropy for asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds, which Dahl, McCormick and the first…

In this paper, we continue to study the generalized Ricci flow. We give a criterion on steady gradient Ricci soliton on complete and noncompact Riemannian manifolds that is Ricci-flat, and then introduce a natural flow whose stable points…

We establish the existence of saddle points for a free boundary problem describing the two-dimensional free surface of a ferrofluid which undergoes normal field instability (also known as Rosensweig instability). The starting point consists…

In this paper, we discuss the relative $K$-stability and the modified $K$-energy associated to the Calabi's extremal metric on toric manifolds. We give a sufficient condition in the sense of convex polytopes associated to toric manifolds…

We show that if a compact K\"ahler manifold admits a weighted extremal metric for the action of a torus, so too does its blowup at a relatively stable point that is fixed by both the torus action and the extremal field. This generalises…

We study the growth rate of harmonic functions in two aspects: gradient estimate and frequency. We obtain the sharp gradient estimate of positive harmonic function in geodesic ball of complete surface with nonnegative curvature. On complete…

We show that for any solution to the K\"ahler-Ricci flow with positive bisectional curvature on a compact K\"ahler manifold $M^n$, the bisectional curvature has a uniform positive lower bound. As a consequence, the solution converges…

We first give a precise statement on the short time existence of the Calabi flow and prove a stability result: any metric near a constant scalar curvature metric will flow to this cscK metric exponentially fast. Secondly, we prove that a…

In this paper we define a Weil-Petersson type metric on the space of shrinking Kaehler-Ricci solitons and prove a necessary and sufficient condition on when it is independent of the choices of Kaehler-Ricci soliton metrics. We also show…

We run the continuity method for Mabuchi's generalization of K\"{a}hler-Einstein metrics, assuming the existence of an extremal K\"{a}hler metric. It gives an analytic proof (without minimal model program) of the recent existence result…
