The notion of coupled K\"ahler-Einstein metrics was introduced recently by Hultgren-WittNystr\"om. In this paper we discuss deformation of a coupled K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on a Fano manifold. In particular we obtain a necessary and…

Let $X$ be a smooth $n$-dimensional Fano hypersurface in $\mathbb P^{n+1}$ where $n \geq 3$. Let $\Gamma$ be a smooth positive-dimensional complete intersection of $X$, a hypersurface and one of more hyperplanes in $\mathbb P^{n+1}$. Let $Y…

This is the first of a series of three papers which provide proofs of results announced recently in arXiv:1210.7494.

We relate the global log canonical threshold of a variety with torus action to the global log canonical threshold of its quotient. We apply this to certain Fano varieties and use Tian's criterion to prove the existence of Kahler-Einstein…

We show that if a Fano manifold $M$ is K-stable with respect to special degenerations equivariant under a compact group of automorphisms, then $M$ admits a K\"ahler-Einstein metric. This is a strengthening of the solution of the…

We compute global log canonical thresholds of certain birationally bi-rigid Fano 3-folds embedded in weighted projective spaces as complete intersections of codimension 2 and prove that they admit an orbifold K\"{a}hler-Einstein metric and…

We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition of existence of a K{\"a}hler-Einstein metric on a $G\times G$-equivariant Fano compactification of a complex connected reductive group $G$ in terms of the associated polytope. This condition is…

In this note we report on examples of 7- and 8-dimensional toric Fano manifolds that are not symmetric and still admit a Kaehler-Einstein metric. This answers a question first posed by V.V. Batyrev and E. Selivanova. The examples were found…

We annnounce a proof of the fact that a K-stable Fano manifold admits a Kahler-Einstein metric and give a brief outline of the proof.

This is the third and final paper in a series which establish results announced in arXiv:1210.7494. In this paper we consider the Gromov-Hausdorff limits of metrics with cone singularities in the case when the limiting cone angle approaches…

We show that if a Fano manifold has discrete automorphism group and admits a polarized K\"ahler-Einstein metric, then there exists a sequence of anticanonically balanced metrics converging smoothly to the K\"ahler-Einstein metric. Our proof…

We compute global log canonical thresholds, or equivalently alpha invariants, of birationally rigid orbifold Fano threefolds embedded in weighted projective spaces as codimension two or three. As an important application, we prove that most…

In these notes we give an exposition of a result of G. Tian, which says that a Fano surfaces admits a Kahler-Einstein metric precisely when the Lie algebra of holomorphic vector fields is reductive.

Let $X$ be a complex toric Fano $n$-fold and ${\cal N}(T)$ the normalizer of a maximal torus $T$ in the group of biholomorphic authomorphisms $Aut(X)$. We call $X$ {\em symmetric} if the trivial character is a single ${\cal N}(T)$-invariant…

We survey the theory of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics, with particular focus on the circle of ideas surrounding the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for Fano manifolds.

This is the second of two papers studying both the geometric structure of Fano fibrations and the application to K\"ahler-Ricci flows developing a singularity in finite time. We assume that the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a compact K\"ahler…

Given a space X, we study the homotopy type of ${\mathcal B}_n(X)$ the space obtained as "the union of all (n-1)-simplexes spanned by points in X". This is a space encountered in non-linear analysis under the name of "space of barycenters"…

Let $X$ be any $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano variety and $\mathrm{Aut}(X)_0$ be the identity component of the automorphism group of $X$. Let $\mathbb{G}$ be a connected reductive subgroup of $\mathrm{Aut}(X)_0$ that contains a maximal torus of…

We show that any $n$-dimensional Fano manifold $X$ with $\alpha(X)=n/(n+1)$ and $n\geq 2$ is K-stable, where $\alpha(X)$ is the alpha invariant of $X$ introduced by Tian. In particular, any such $X$ admits K\"ahler-Einstein metrics and the…

We prove that, for a spherical Fano threefold not in the Mori-Mukai family 2-29, and a weight function associated with the action of the connected center of a Levi subgroup of its automorphism group, weighted K-polystability is equivalent…
