In this paper, we use a Killing form on a Riemannian manifold to construct a class of Finsler metrics. We find equations that characterize Einstein metrics among this class. In particular, we construct a family of Einstein metrics on $S^3$…
Several Einstein-Sasaki 7-metrics appearing in the physical literature are fibered over four dimensional Kahler-Einstein metrics. Instead we consider here the natural Kahler-Einstein metrics defined over the twistor space Z of any…
We construct quasi-Einstein metrics on some hypersurface families. The hypersurfaces are circle bundles over the product of Fano, K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds. The quasi-Einstein metrics are related to various gradient K\"ahler-Ricci…
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…
This article is an expository introduction to our paper Convexity of the K-energy and Uniqueness of Extremal metrics. We present the main ideas behind the proof that Mabuchi's K-energy functional is convex along weak geodesics in the space…
We construct explicit Einstein-Kahler metrics in all even dimensions D=2n+4 \ge 6, in terms of a $2n$-dimensional Einstein-Kahler base metric. These are cohomogeneity 2 metrics which have the new feature of including a NUT-type parameter,…
We give an explicit local classification of conformally equivalent but oppositely oriented Kaehler metrics on a 4-manifold which are toric with respect to a common 2-torus action. In the generic case, these structures have an intriguing…
This is a corrected and essentially extended version of the previous preprint arXiv:gr-qc/0105088 v4 (2002) by Y. Nutku and M. Sheftel containing new results. It is being published now in honor of Y. Nutku's memory. All responsibility for…
This paper is the first step in a systematic project to study examples of K\"ahler manifolds with positive holomorphic sectional curvature ($H > 0$). Previously Hitchin proved that any compact K\"ahler surface with $H>0$ must be rational…
Given a semi-Riemannian $4$-manifold $(M,g)$ with two distinguished vector fields satisfying properties determined by their shear, twist and various Lie bracket relations, a family of K\"ahler metrics $g_K$ is constructed, defined on an…
We study metric solutions of Einstein-anti-Maxwell theory admitting Killing spinors. The analogue of the IWP metric which admits a space-like Killing vector is found and is expressed in terms of a complex function satisfying the wave…
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…
The notion of weighted extremal K\"ahler metrics extends the classical notion of Calabi's extremal K\"ahler metrics, but includes many well-studied objects in K\"ahler geometry such as K\"ahler-Ricci solitons and Sasaki-Einstein metrics. In…
In their seminal work (\cite{CC}, \cite{CC2}), Chen and Cheng proved apriori estimates for the constant scalar curvature metrics on compact K\"ahler manifolds. They also proved $C^{3,\alpha}$ estimate for the potential of the \ka metrics…
We construct new explicit toric scalar-flat K{\"a}hler ALE metrics on weighted projective spaces of non-compact type, which we use to obtain smooth extremal K{\"a}hler metrics on appropriate resolutions of orbifolds. In particular, we…
In joint work with Chen and Weber, the author has elsewhere shown that CP2#2(-CP2) admits an Einstein metric. The present paper gives a new and rather different proof of this fact. Our results include new existence theorems for extremal…
We present three families of exact, cohomogeneity-one Einstein metrics in $(2n+2)$ dimensions, which are generalizations of the Stenzel construction of Ricci-flat metrics to those with a positive cosmological constant. The first family of…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of polyhedral K\"ahler metrics on $\mathbb{CP}^n$ whose singular set is a hyperplane arrangement and whose cone angles are in $(0, 2\pi)$. These conditions take the form of…
In this paper, we prove the equivalence of the existence of extremal Kahler metrics and the properness of the modified K energy on projective bundles. Moreover, we discuss the relations of the lower boundedness of the K energy, the infimum…
Conformally K\"{a}hler, Einstein-Maxwell metrics and $f$-extremal metrics are generalization of canonical metrics in K\"{a}hler geometry. We introduce uniform K-stability for toric K\"{a}hler manifolds, and show that uniform K-stability is…
