The symplectic reduction of a complete toric K\"ahler manifold need not be closed or even be a polygon. Sharp differences in behavior occur between those complete toric K\"ahler 4-manifolds with closed and with non-closed reductions. This…

In this paper, we study gravitational instantons (i.e., complete hyperk\"aler 4-manifolds with faster than quadratic curvature decay). We prove three main theorems: 1.Any gravitational instanton must have known end----ALE, ALF, ALG or ALH.…

We prove the instability of conformally K\"ahler, compact or ALF Einstein 4-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature which are not half conformally flat. This applies to all the known examples of gravitational instantons which are not…

We study complete scalar-flat Kahler manifolds with a Killing field and a mild asymptotic condition. We show that topological and geometric rigidities exist that powerfully restrict the manifold's behavior at infinity. We create a rough…

In this paper, we show that the complete scalar-flat Kahler metrics constructed by Abreu and the author on strictly unbounded toric 4-dimensional orbifolds have finite $L^2$ norm of the full Riemannian tensor. In particular, this answers a…

In a previous paper, the first two authors classified complete Ricci-flat ALF Riemannian 4-manifolds that are toric and Hermitian, but non-Kaehler. In this article, we consider general Ricci-flat deformations of such spaces, assuming only…

We study unbounded 2-dimensional metric polytopes such as those arising as K\"ahler quotients of complete K\"ahler 4-manifolds with two commuting symmetries and zero scalar curvature. Under a mild closedness condition, we obtain a complete…

We establish sharp lower bounds for the mass of asymptotically locally Euclidean (ALE) and asymptotically locally flat (ALF) toric 4-manifolds, in terms of equilibrium geometries consisting of gravitational instantons. More precisely, the…

In a recent paper Donaldson explains how to use an older construction of Joyce to obtain four dimensional local models for scalar-flat Kahler metrics with a 2-torus symmetry. Using this idea, he recovers and generalizes the Taub-NUT metric…

Conditions for the existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics and central K\"ahler metrics [MS] along with examples, both old and new, are given on classes of Lorentzian $4$-manifolds with two distinguished vector fields. The results utilize…

A notion of asymptotically conical K\"ahler orbifold is introduced, and, following previous existence results in the setting of asymptotically conical manifolds, it is shown that a certain complex Monge-Amp\'ere equation admits a rapidly…

This is our second paper in a series to study gravitational instantons, i.e. complete hyperk\"aler 4-manifolds with faster than quadratic curvature decay. We prove two main theorems: 1.The asymptotic rate of gravitational instantons to the…

We find all hyper-K\"ahler 4-manifolds admitting conformal K\"ahler structures with respect to either orientation, and we show that these structures can be expressed as a combination of twistor elementary states (and possibly a self-dual…

We present a method in nonlinear elliptic systems to study curvature decays on asymptotically locally Euclidean (ALE) manifolds. In particular, we show that scalar flat Kahler and harmonic ALE metrics of real dimension n are of order n-2.

A theorem of E.Lerman and S.Tolman, generalizing a result of T.Delzant, states that compact symplectic toric orbifolds are classified by their moment polytopes, together with a positive integer label attached to each of their facets. In…

We give a classification of toric, Hermitian, Ricci flat, ALF Riemannian metrics in dimension 4, including metrics with conical singularities. The only smooth examples are on one hand the hyperKaehler ALF metrics, on the other hand, the…

Given a strictly unbounded toric symplectic 4-manifold, we explicitly construct complete toric scalar-flat K\"ahler metrics on the complement of a toric divisor. These symplectic 4-manifolds correspond to a specific class of non-compact…

We prove a simple, explicit formula for the mass of any asymptotically locally Euclidean (ALE) K\"ahler manifold, assuming only the sort of weak fall-off conditions required for the mass to actually be well-defined. For ALE scalar-flat…

This talk is based on the recent work in collaboration with M. Azreg-A\"{\i}nou and G. Cl\'ement devoted to extremal instantons in the one-vector truncation of the Euclidean $\mathcal{N}=4,\, D=4$ theory. Extremal solutions satisfying the…

We prove that any asymptotically locally Euclidean scalar-flat K\"ahler 4-orbifold whose isometry group contains a 2-torus is isometric, up to an orbifold covering, to a quaternionic-complex quotient of a $k$-dimensional quaternionic vector…
