We partially confirm a conjecture of Donaldson relating the greatest Ricci lower bound $R(X)$ to the existence of conical Kahler-Einstein metrics on a Fano manifold $X$. In particular, if $D\in |-K_X|$ is a smooth simple divisor and the…
In this note, we give a new proof for Perelman's scalar curvature and diameter estimates for the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on Fano manifolds. The proof relies on a new Harnack estimate for a special family of functions in space-time. Our new…
We develop a general approach to prove K-stability of Fano varieties. The new theory is used to (a) prove the existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on all smooth Fano hypersurfaces of Fano index two, (b) to compute the stability thresholds…
We examine various examples of horosymmetric manifolds which exhibit interesting properties with respect to canonical metrics. In particular, we determine when the blow-up of a quadric along a linear subquadric admits K\"ahler-Einstein…
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…
We introduce uniform K-stability and its relationship with the coercivity property of the K-energy functional, for general polarized manifolds. Since the automorphism groups are not necessarily finite, size of the norm measuring uniformity…
We introduce a flow of Riemannian metrics and positive volume forms over compact oriented manifolds whose formal limit is a shrinking Ricci soliton. The case of a fixed volume form has been considered in our previous work. We still call…
As a generalization of Kahler-Einstein metrics for Fano manifolds with nonvanishing Futaki invariant, Mabuchi solitons are critical points of a Calabi-type energy functional. We study their existence on toric Fano varieties and the…
In this paper, we will establish a regularity theory for the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on Fano $n$-manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded in $L^p$-norm for some $p > n$. Using this regularity theory, we will also solve a long-standing conjecture…
In this paper, we first confirm the Hamilton-Tian conjecture for the Sasaki-Ricci flow in a compact transverse Fano quasi-regular Sasakian $5$-manifold with klt foliation singularities. Secondly, we derive the compactness theorem of…
We study stability of non-compact gradient Kaehler-Ricci flow solitons with positive holomorphic bisectional curvature. Our main result is that any compactly supported perturbation and appropriately decaying perturbations of the Kaehler…
In this paper, we derive the uniform L^{4}-bound of the transverse conic Ricci curvature along the conic Sasaki-Ricci flow on a compact transverse log Fano Sasakian manifold M of dimension five and the space of leaves of the characteristic…
Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold with a given ample line bundle $L$. In \cite{Don05}, Donaldson proved that the Calabi energy of a K\"ahler metric in $c_1(L)$ is bounded from below by the supremum of a normalized version of the minus…
The existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on a compact K\"ahler manifold has been the subject of intensive study over the last few decades, following Yau's solution to Calabi's conjecture. The Ricci flow, introduced by Richard Hamilton has…
In this paper, we prove the Hamilton-Tian conjecture for K\"ahler-Ricci flow based on a recent work of Liu-Sz\'ekelyhidi on Tian's partical $C^0$-estimate for poralized K\"ahler metrics with Ricci bounded below. The Yau-Tian-Donaldson…
Mabuchi solitons generalize K\"{a}hler-Einstein metrics on Fano manifolds, which constitute a Yau-Tian-Donaldson type correspondence with relative Ding stability. Comparing with K\"{a}hler-Ricci solitons, there is a distinct necessary…
Let X be a Fano manifold. G.Tian proves that if X admits a Kaehler-Einstein metric, then it satisfies two different stability conditions: one involving the Futaki invariant of a special degeneration of X, the other Hilbert-Mumford-stability…
Given a compact polarized manifold $(X,L)$, we introduce two new stability thresholds in terms of singularity types of global quasi-plurisubharmonic functions on $X$. We prove that in the Fano setting, the new invariants can effectively…
In this paper, we extend Tosatti's method to study the lower boundedness of modified $K$-energy on a Fano manifold and apply this result to study the relative $K$-stability of the deformation space of a K\"ahler Ricci soliton.
We show that if a Fano manifold has discrete automorphism group and admits a polarized K\"ahler-Einstein metric, then there exists a sequence of anticanonically balanced metrics converging smoothly to the K\"ahler-Einstein metric. Our proof…
