We focus on the classical open problem of the classification of K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds that can be K\"ahler immersed into a complex projective space endowed with the Fubini-Study metric. In particular, we will deal with such problem in…

The total space of the tangent bundle of a K\"ahler manifold admits a canonical K\"ahler structure. Parallel translation identifies the space ${\Bbb{T}}$ of oriented affine lines in ${\Bbb{R}}^3$ with the tangent bundle of $S^2$. Thus, the…

We prove a sharp result for the distortion of a hyperbolic type metric under $K$-quasiregular mappings of the upper half plane. The proof makes use of a new kind of Bernoulli inequality and the Schwarz lemma for quasiregular mappings.

Astronomical observations showed that there may exist a bulk flow with peculiar velocities in the universe, which contradicts with the (\Lambda)CDM model. The bulk flow reveals that the observational universe is anisotropic at large scales.…

In this paper, we introduce a new parabolic equation on K\"ahler manifolds. The static point of this flow is related to the existence of a lower bound of the Mabuchi energy. In this paper, we prove the flow always exists for all times for…

This paper surveys the role of moment maps in K\"ahler geometry. The first section discusses the Ricci form as a moment map and then moves on to moment map interpretations of the K\"ahler--Einstein condition and the scalar curvature…

The two-dimensional (2-D) Euler equations of a perfect fluid possess a beautiful geometric description: they are reduced geodesic equations on the infinite-dimensional Lie group of symplectomorphims with respect to a right-invariant…

Using quaternionic Feix--Kaledin construction we provide a local classification of quaternion-K\"ahler metrics with a rotating $S^1$-symmetry with the fixed point set submanifold $S$ of maximal possible dimension. For any K\"ahler manifold…

The incompressible Schr\"odinger flow is a Madelung's hydrodynamical form of quantum mechanics, which can simulate classical fluids with particular advantage in its simplicity and its ability of capturing thin vortex dynamics. This model…

In incompressible flow the viscous force is solenoidal, whereas the Madelung transform of a spinless Schr\"odinger equation produces only gradient forces. The two are orthogonal, so viscosity cannot arise from Hamiltonian quantum mechanics…

The mathematical formalism of Quantum Mechanics is derived or "reconstructed" from more basic considerations of probability theory and information geometry. The starting point is the recognition that probabilities are central to QM: the…
