We prove an analogue of the Donaldson-Uhlenbeck-Yau theorem for asymptotically cylindrical K\"ahler manifolds: If $\mathscr{E}$ is a reflexive sheaf over an ACyl K\"ahler manifold, which is asymptotic to a $\mu$-stable holomorphic vector…
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.
In this paper, we prove that for any K\"ahler metrics $\omega_0$ and $\chi$ on $M$, there exists $\omega_\varphi=\omega_0+\sqrt{-1}\partial\bar\partial\varphi>0$ satisfying the J-equation $\mathrm{tr}_{\omega_\varphi}\chi=c$ if and only if…
A C^2 function on C^n is called (n-1)-plurisubharmonic in the sense of Harvey-Lawson if the sum of any n-1 eigenvalues of its complex Hessian is nonnegative. We show that the associated Monge-Ampere equation can be solved on any compact…
We consider the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on compact K\"ahler manifolds with semiample canonical bundle and intermediate Kodaira dimension, and show that the flow collapses to a canonical metric on the base of the Iitaka fibration in the locally…
In this short note, we investigate the existence of orbifold K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on toric varieties. In particular, we show that every $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial normal projective toric variety allows an orbifold K\"ahler-Einstein metric.…
We discuss the extent to which numerical techniques for computing approximations to Ricci-flat metrics can be used to investigate hierarchies of curvature scales on Calabi-Yau manifolds. Control of such hierarchies is integral to the…
This note illustrates the Ricci flow method based on the Cao.H.D's paper[1] and Yau.S.T's paper[4], and tries to explain the method in detail, especially in some calculations. Jian Song and Weinkove's note[9] used some other estimates to…
This paper is devoted to the study of a problem arising from a geometric context, namely the conformal deformation of a Riemannian metric to a scalar flat one having constant mean curvature on the boundary. By means of blow-up analysis…
A Riemannian manifold $M$ is said to satisfy the Omori-Yau maximum principle if for any $C^2$ bounded function $g:M\to \Bbb R$ there is a sequence $x_n\in M$, such that $\lim_{n\to \infty}g(x_n)=\sup_M g$, $ \lim_{n\to \infty}|\nabla…
We find new obstructions to the desingularization of compact Einstein orbifolds by smooth Einstein metrics. These new obstructions, specific to the compact situation, raise the question of whether a compact Einstein $4$-orbifold which is…
Given a Fano manifold $(X,\omega)$ we develop a variational approach to characterize analytically the existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics with prescribed singularities, assuming that these singularities can be approximated algebraically.…
We prove that a complete K\"ahler manifold with holomorphic curvature bounded between two negative constants admits a unique complete K\"ahler-Einstein metric. We also show this metric and the Kobayashi-Royden metric are both uniformly…
We prove a positive mass theorem for spaces which asymptotically approach a flat Euclidean space times a Calabi-Yau manifold (or any special honolomy manifold except the quaternionic K\"ahler). This is motivated by the very recent work of…
We develop a theory of stable bundles and affine Hermitian-Einstein metrics for flat vector bundles over a special affine manifold (a manifold admitting an atlas whose gluing maps are all locally constant volume-preserving affine maps). Our…
In this paper, we construct a completion of the moduli space for polarized Calabi-Yau manifolds by using Ricci-flat K\"ahler-Einstein metrics and the Gromov-Hausdorff topology, which parameterizes certain Calabi-Yau varieties. We then study…
We present in this note a lower bound for the Calabi functional in a given K\"ahler class. This yields an integral inequality for constant scalar curvature metrics, which can be viewed as a refined version of Yau's Chern number inequality.
Yau conjectured that a Fano manifold admits a Kahler-Einstein metric if and only if it is stable in the sense of geometric invariant theory. There has been much progress on this conjecture by Tian, Donaldson and others. The Mabuchi energy…
Open Calabi-Yau manifolds and log Calabi-Yau varieties have been broadly studied over decades. Regarding them as "semistable" objects, we propose to consider their good proper subclass, which we regard as certain poly-stable ones, morally…
We prove that any complete non-compact K\"ahler surface with positive sectional curvature is biholomorphic to $\mathbb{C}^2$, establishing the two dimensional case of the weaker form of Yau's uniformisation conjecture. In contrast to all…
