We introduce a class of almost homogeneous varieties contained in the class of spherical varieties and containing horospherical varieties as well as complete symmetric varieties. We develop K{\"a}hler geometry on these varieties, with…
An almost K\"ahler structure is {\it extremal} if the Hermitian scalar curvature is a Killing potential [29]. When the almost complex structure is integrable it coincides with extremal K\"ahler metric in the sense of Calabi [8]. We observe…
We develop new algorithms for approximating extremal toric K\"ahler metrics. We focus on an extremal metric on $\mathbb{CP}^{2}\sharp2\overline{\mathbb{CP}}^{2}$, which is conformal to an Einstein metric (the Chen-LeBrun-Weber metric). We…
Using spin$^c$ structure we prove that K\"ahler-Einstein metrics with nonpositive scalar curvature are stable (in the direction of changes in conformal structures) as the critical points of the total scalar curvature functional. Moreover if…
It is well-known that every 6-dimensional strictly nearly K\"{a}hler manifold $(M,g,J)$ is Einstein with positive scalar curvature $scal>0$. Moreover, one can show that the space $E$ of co-closed primitive (1,1)-forms on $M$ is stable under…
We study the existence of extremal K\"ahler metrics on K\"ahler manifolds. After introducing a notion of relative K-stability for K\"ahler manifolds, we prove that K\"ahler manifolds admitting extremal K\"ahler metrics are relatively…
For any Lagrangean K\"ahler submanifold $M \subset T^*{\Bbb C}^n$, there exists a canonical hyper K\"ahler metric on $T^*M$. A K\"ahler potential for this metric is given by the generalized Calabi Ansatz of the theoretical physicists…
Based on Donaldson's method, we prove that, for an integral Kahler class, when there is a Kahler metric of constant scalar curvature, then it minimizes the K-energy. We do not assume that the automorphism group is discrete.
This paper, the second of a series, deals with the function space of all smooth K\"ahler metrics in any given closed complex manifold $M$ in a fixed cohomology class. The previous result of the second author \cite{chen991} showed that the…
Consider a fibred compact K\"ahler manifold X endowed with a relatively ample line bundle, such that each fibre admits a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metric and has discrete automorphism group. Assuming the base of the fibration…
Donaldson conjectured \cite{Dona96} that the space of K\"ahler metrics is geodesic convex by smooth geodesic and that it is a metric space. Following Donaldson's program, we verify the second part of Donaldson's conjecture completely and…
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 an eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian on a compact K\"{a}hler manifold. Considering the $k$-th eigenvalue $\lambda_{k}$ as a functional on the space of K\"{a}hler metrics with fixed volume on a compact complex manifold, we…
Let $Y$ be a compact K\"ahler normal space and $\alpha \in H^{1,1}(Y,\mathbb{R})$ a K\"ahler class. We study metric properties of the space $\mathcal{H}_\alpha$ of K\"ahler metrics in $\alpha$ using Mabuchi geodesics. We extend several…
In this paper, we study the existence of a complete holomorphic vector fields on a strongly pseudoconvex complex manifold admitting a negatively curved complete K\"ahler-Einstein metric and a discrete sequence of automorphisms. Using the…
We formulate a notion of K-stability for K\"ahler manifolds, and prove one direction of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture in this setting. More precisely, we prove that the Mabuchi functional being bounded below (resp. coercive) implies…
Well-known conjectures of Tian predict that existence of canonical Kahler metrics should be equivalent to various notions of properness of Mabuchi's K-energy functional. In some instances this has been verified, especially under restrictive…
Generalizing previous results of Arezzo-Pacard-Singer, Seyyedali-Sz\'ekelyhidi and Hallam, we prove the invariance under smooth blowups of the class of weighted extremal K\"ahler manifolds, modulo a log-concavity assumption on the first…
Inspired by a parabolic system of Li-Yuan-Zhang and the continuity equation of La Nave-Tian, we study a system of elliptic equations for a K\"ahler metric $\omega$ and a closed $(1, 1)$-form $\alpha$. Assuming a uniform estimate for…
