In this note we prove convexity, in the sense of Colding-Naber, of the regular set of solutions to some complex Monge-Ampere equations with conical singularities along simple normal crossing divisors. In particular, any two points in the…
We study Riemannian geometry of canonical Kahler-Einstein currents on projective Calabi-Yau varieties and canonical models of general type with crepant singularities. We prove that the metric completion of the regular part of such a…
Let $X$ be a non-singular compact K\"ahler manifold, endowed with an effective divisor $D= \sum (1-\beta_k) Y_k$ having simple normal crossing support, and satisfying $\beta_k \in (0,1)$. The natural objects one has to consider in order to…
This is the first part in a two-part series on complete Calabi-Yau manifolds asymptotic to Riemannian cones at infinity. We begin by proving general existence and uniqueness results. The uniqueness part relaxes the decay condition…
In this work, the dual flatness, which is connected with Statistics and Information geometry, of general $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics (a new class of Finsler metrics) is studied. A nice characterization for such metrics to be dually flat under…
The main result of this paper shows that "test configurations" give new lower bounds on the $L^{2}$ norm of the scalar curvature on a Kahler manifold. This is closely analogous to the analysis of the Yang-Mills functional over Riemann…
We prove generalized lower Ricci curvature bounds for warped products over complete Finsler manifolds. On the one hand our result covers a theorem of Bacher and Sturm concerning euclidean and spherical cones. On the other hand it can be…
We describe the positive cone and the pseudo-effective cone of a non-K\"ahlerian surface. We use these results for two types of applications: - Describe the set $\sigma(X)$ of possible total Ricci scalars associated with Gauduchon metrics…
We prove that the parabolic flow of conformally balanced metrics introduced by Phong, Picard and Zhang in "A flow of conformally balanced metrics with K\"ahler fixed points", is stable around Calabi-Yau metrics. The result shows that the…
We generalize for pseudo-Riemannian metrics a classical result of Gallot and Tanno and use it to reprove a recent result of Alekseevsky, Cortes, Galaev and Leistner that decomposable cones over complete closed pseudo-Riemannian manifolds do…
After providing an explicit K-stability condition for a $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein log spherical cone, we prove the existence and uniqueness of an equivariant K-stable degeneration of the cone, and deduce uniqueness of the asymptotic cone of a…
In this paper, by generalizing the concept of balanced metrics, we shall show that Donaldson's asymptotic approximation of balanced metrics for constant scalar curvature cases can be generalized to extremal Kaehler cases.
The aim of this paper is to use the methods and results of symplectic homogenization (see [V4]) to prove existence of periodic orbits and invariant measures with rotation number depending on the differential of the Homogenized Hamiltonian.…
We construct Ricci flat Kahler metrics with cone singularities along a complex hypersurface. This construction is inspired in part by R. Mazzeo's program in the case of negative Einstein constant, and uses the linear theory developed…
This is a continuation of a previous paper of same title. The degeneration, i.e. curvature blow-up, of sequences of metrics appoaching the Sigma constant, assumed non-positive, is analysed. The degeneration is related to the sphere…
We prove a Kuranishi-type theorem for deformations of complex structures on ALE K\"ahler surfaces. This is used to prove that for any scalar-flat K\"ahler ALE surface, all small deformations of complex structure also admit scalar-flat…
In this paper, we prove the smooth cubic moments vanish for the Hecke--Maass cusp forms, which gives a new case of the random wave conjecture. In fact, we can prove a polynomial decay for the smooth cubic moments, while for the smooth…
Given a compact complex $n$-fold $X$ satisfying the $\partial\bar\partial$-lemma and supposed to have a trivial canonical bundle $K_X$ and to admit a balanced (=semi-K\"ahler) Hermitian metric $\omega$, we introduce the concept of…
We obtain sharp upper and lower bounds for the diameter of Ricci-flat Kahler metrics on polarized Calabi-Yau degeneration families, as conjectured by Kontsevich-Soibelman.
On a compact manifold with boundary, the map consisting of the scalar curvature in the interior and the mean curvature on the boundary is a local surjection at generic metrics. We prove that this result may be localized to compact…
