Nonlinear sigma models with non-compact target space and non-amen-able symmetry group were introduced long ago in the study of disordered electron systems. They also occur in dimensionally reduced quantum gravity; recently they have been…

Let $f$ be a function on a bounded domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ and $\delta$ be a positive function on $\Omega$ such that $B(x,\delta(x))\subseteq \Omega$. Let $\sigma(f)(x)$ be the average of $f$ over the ball $B(x,\delta(x))$.…

We consider canonical metrics on Fano manifolds. First we introduce a norm-type functional on Fano manifolds, which has Kahler-Einstein or Kahler-Ricci soliton as its critical point and the Kahler-Ricci flow can be viewed as its (reduced)…

It is shown that any, possibly singular, Fano variety X admitting a Kahler-Einstein metric is K-polystable, thus confirming one direction of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture in the setting of Q-Fano varieties equipped with their…

From the work of Dervan-Keller, there exists a quantization of the critical equation for the J-flow. This leads to the notion of J-balanced metrics. We prove that the existence of J-balanced metrics has a purely algebro-geometric…

Let $d,k$ be natural numbers and let $\mathcal{L}_1, \dots, \mathcal{L}_k \in \mathrm{GL}_d(\mathbb{Q})$ be linear transformations such that there are no non-trivial subspaces $U, V \subseteq \mathbb{Q}^d$ of the same dimension satisfying…

Let $L$ be a holomorphic line bundle on a compact complex manifold $X$ of dimension $n,$ and let $e^{-\phi}$ be a continuous metric on $L.$ Fixing a measure $d\mu$ on $X$ gives a sequence of Hilbert spaces consisting of holomorphic sections…

In 2010, the first author of this paper introduced the notion of $\sigma$--stability for a nonempty subset of an $L^0(\mathcal{F},K)$--module in [T.X. Guo, Relations between some basic results derived from two kinds of topologies for a…

Let $M$ be a closed smooth manifold. In 1999, L. Friedlander and N. Nadirashvili introduced a new differential invariant $I_1(M)$ using the first normalized nonzero eigenvalue of the Lalpace-Beltrami operator $\Delta_g$ of a Riemannian…

We show that delta invariant is a continuous function on the big cone. We will also introduce an analytic delta invariant and show its continuity in the K\"ahler cone, from which we deduce the continuity of the greatest Ricci lower bound.…

In this thesis we study the principle that extremal objects in differential geometry correspond to stable objects in algebraic geometry. In our introduction we survey the most famous instances of this principle with a view towards the…

We prove that on any log Fano pair of dimension $n$ whose stability threshold is less than $\frac{n+1}{n}$, any valuation computing the stability threshold has a finitely generated associated graded ring. Together with earlier works, this…

The Hitchin-Kobayashi correspondence for vector bundles, established by Donaldson, Kobayashi, Luebke, Uhlenbeck and Yau, states that an indecomposable holomorphic vector bundle over a compact Kaehler manifold is stable in the sense of…

Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold of dimension $n$ and let $m$ be a positive integer with $m\leq n$. Assume that $X$ admits a K\"ahler metric $\omega$ and a weakly positive, $\partial\bar\partial$-closed, smooth $(n-m,\,n-m)$-form…

A general construction for $\sigma-$finite absolutely continuous invariant measure will be presented. It will be shown that the local bounded distortion of the Radon-Nykodym derivatives of $f^n_*(\lambda)$ will imply the existence of a…

The theory of quantum gravity, in which tetrads emerge as the bilinear combinations of the fermionic field, suggests that in general relativity the interval $ds$ is dimensionless. Several other approaches to quantum gravity, including the…

We consider operators $L$ acting on functions on a Riemannian surface, $\Sigma$, of the form $L = \Delta + V +a K.$ Here $\Delta$ is the Laplacian of $\Sigma$, $V$ a non-negative potential on $\Sigma$, K the Gaussian curvature and $a$ is a…

For a two dimensional bounded pseudoconvex domain of finite type, we prove uniformization theorems via K$\ddot{\operatorname{a}}$hler-Kobayashi metric or K$\ddot{\operatorname{a}}$hler-Carath$\acute{\operatorname{e}}$odory metric with…

This is a sequel of our paper [arXiv:1809.08425] on the Quot-scheme limit and variational properties of Donaldson's functional, which established its coercivity for slope stable holomorphic vector bundles over smooth projective varieties.…

We extend the framework of K-stability (Tian, Donaldson) to more general algebro-geometric setting, such as partial desingularisations of (fixed) singularities, (not necessarily flat) families over higher dimensional base and the classical…
