We investigate compact complex manifolds endowed with SKT or balanced metrics. In each case we define a new functional whose critical points are proved to be precisely the K\"ahler metrics, if any, on the manifold. As general manifolds of…
On a complex manifold an Hermitian metric which is simultaneously SKT and balanced has to be necessarily K\"ahler. It has been conjectured that if a compact complex manifold (M,J) has an SKT metric and a balanced metric both compatible with…
In this note we present, for every $n \geq 4$, a non-K\"ahler compact complex manifold $X$ of complex dimension $n$ admitting a balanced metric and an astheno-K\"ahler metric which is in addition $k$-th Gauduchon for any $1\leq k\leq n-1$.
In this paper we study the set of balanced metrics (in Donaldson's terminology) on a compact complex manifold M which are homothetic to a given balanced one. This question is related to various properties of the Tian-Yau-Zelditch…
We introduce a property of compact complex manifolds under which the existence of balanced metric is stable by small deformations of the complex structure. This property, which is weaker than the $\partial\overline\partial$-Lemma, is…
We show that an $n-$dimensional Moishezon manifold is uniruled if and only if it supports a balanced metric $\omega^{n-1}$ of positive total scalar Chern curvature. A similar statement also holds true for class $\mathcal C$ manifolds of…
A complex Hermitian $n$-manifold $(M,I, \omega)$ is called locally conformally Kahler (LCK) if $d\omega=\theta\wedge\omega$, where $\theta$ is a closed 1-form, balanced if $\omega^{n-1}$ is closed, and SKT if $dId\omega=0$. We conjecture…
We continue our study on Hermitian manifolds that are {\em Bismut torsion parallel,} or {\em BTP} for brevity, which means that the Bismut connection has parallel torsion tensor. For $n\geq 3$, BTP metrics can be balanced (and…
In our previous works on deformation limits of projective and Moishezon manifolds, we introduced and made crucial use of the notion of strongly Gauduchon metrics as a reinforcement of the earlier notion of Gauduchon metrics. Using direct…
We study the existence of three classes of Hermitian metrics on certain types of compact complex manifolds. More precisely, we consider balanced, SKT and astheno-K\"ahler metrics. We prove that the twistor spaces of compact hyperk\"ahler…
A hypercomplex structure on a differentiable manifold consists of three integrable almost complex structures that satisfy quaternionic relations. If, in addition, there exists a metric on the manifold which is Hermitian with respect to the…
In the paper we construct a modification $S(M)$ of the twistor space of a K\"ahler scalar flat surface $M$ and study its complex-geometric and metric properties. In particular, we construct complete balanced metrics on $S(M)$ and show that…
In this note we prove that, under a weak condition, small deformations of a compact balanced manifold are also balanced. This condition is satisfied on the twistor space over a compact self-dual four manifold.
We introduce two notions of hyperbolicity for not necessarily K\"ahler even balanced $n$-dimensional compact complex manifolds $X$. The first, called {\it SKT hyperbolicity}, generalises Gromov's K\"ahler hyperbolicity by means of SKT…
In this paper, the concept of balanced manifolds is generalized to reduced complex spaces: the class B and balanced spaces. Compared with the case of Kahlerian, the class B is similar to the Fujiki class C and the balanced space is similar…
In this paper, we consider a natural map from the Kahler cone to the balanced cone of a Kahler manifold. We study its injectivity and surjecticity. We also give an analytic characterization theorem on a nef class being Kahler.
In a paper by Angella, Otal, Ugarte, and Villacampa, the authors conjectured that on a compact Hermitian manifold, if a Gauduchon connection other than Chern or Strominger is K\"ahler-like, then the Hermitian metric must be K\"ahler. They…
We review the relations between compact complex manifolds carrying various types of Hermitian metrics (K\"ahler, balanced or {\it strongly Gauduchon}) and those satisfying the $\partial\bar\partial$-lemma or the degeneration at $E_1$ of the…
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…
This paper is intended as the first step of a programme aiming to prove in the long run the long-conjectured closedness under holomorphic deformations of compact complex manifolds that are bimeromorphically equivalent to compact K\"ahler…
