Suppose $(X,\omega)$ is a compact K\"ahler manifold. Following Mabuchi, the space of smooth K\"ahler potentials $\mathcal H$ can be endowed with a Riemannian structure, which induces an infinite dimensional path length metric space…

In this note, we shall prove geodesic convexity of the space of K\"ahler potentials on an ALE K\"ahler manifold. This extends earlier results in the compact case proved in the fundamental work of X-X. Chen. We further prove the boundedness…

Given a compact K\"ahler manifold, we prove that all global isometries of the space of K\"ahler metrics are induced by biholomorphisms and anti-biholomorphisms of the manifold. In particular, there exist no global symmetries for Mabuchi's…

Given any two K\"ahler manifolds $X_1$ and $X_2$, L. Lempert recently proved that if their spaces of K\"ahler potentials are isometric with respect to the Mabuchi metric, then $X_1$ and $X_2$ must be diffeomorphic. We prove that this is no…

Given a compact K\"ahler manifold (X,\omega_0), according to Mabuchi, the set of K\"ahler forms cohomologous to \omega_0 has the natural structure of an infinite dimensional Riemannian manifold. We address the question whether points in…

We introduce different Finsler metrics on the space of smooth K\"ahler potentials that will induce a natural geometry on various finite energy classes $\mathcal E_{\tilde \chi}(X,\omega)$. Motivated by questions raised by R. Berman, V.…

Given any closed Kaehler manifold we define, following an idea by Eugenio Calabi, a Riemannian metric on the space of Kaehler metrics regarded as an infinite dimensional manifold. We prove several geometrical features of the resulting…

We establish the convexity of Mabuchi's K-energy functional along weak geodesics in the space of Kahler potentials on a compact Kahler manifold thus confirming a conjecture of Chen and give some applications in Kahler geometry, including a…

In this article, we study minimal isometric immersions of K\"ahler manifolds into product of two real space forms. We analyse the obstruction conditions to the existence of pluriharmonic isometric immersions of a K\"ahler manifold into…

Given a compact K\"ahler manifold $(X,\omega_0)$ let $\mathcal H_{0}$ be the set of K\"ahler forms cohomologous to $\omega_0$. As observed by Mabuchi \cite{m}, this space has the structure of an infinite dimensional Riemannian manifold, if…

The space of K\"ahler metrics can, on the one hand, be approximated by subspaces of algebraic metrics, while, on the other hand, can be enlarged to finite-energy spaces arising in pluripotential theory. The latter spaces are realized as…

The K\"ahler cone of a compact manifold carries a natural Riemannian metric, given by the intersection product of its cohomology ring. We write down the curvature tensor of this metric by embedding the K\"ahler cone in the space of…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler unibranch complex analytic space of pure dimension. Fix a big class $\alpha$ with smooth representative $\theta$ and a model potential $\phi$ with positive mass. We define and the study non-pluripolar products…

We prove that the loop space of a K\"ahler manifold inherits a K\"ahler structure. Then we prove that equipped with this natural metric the loop space is complete and unbounded. Additionally, we show that a geodesic on the loop space can be…

We extend our previous results on the relation between quaternion-Kahler manifolds and hyperkahler cones and we describe how isometries, moment maps and scalar potentials descend from the cone to the quaternion-Kahler space. As an example…

We present an overview of recent results in locally conformally K\"ahler geometry, with focus on the topological properties which obstruct the existence of such structures on compact manifolds.

A symplectically invariant definition of special K\"ahler geometry is discussed. Certain aspects hereof are illustrated by means of Calabi-Yau moduli spaces.

We prove the convergence of geodesic distance during the quantization of the space of K\"ahler potentials. As applications, this provides alternative proofs of certain inequalities about the K-energy functional in the projective case.
