In this paper, we study the boundary behavior of the negatively curved K\"ahler-Einstein metric attached to a log canonical pair $(X,D)$ such that $K_X+D$ is ample. In the case where $X$ is smooth and $D$ has simple normal crossings support…
We introduce complex singularity exponents of plurisubharmonic functions and prove a general semi-continuity result for them. This concept contains as a special case several similar concepts which have been considered e.g. by Arnold and…
We study K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on singular projective varieties. We show that under an approximation property with constant scalar curvature metrics, the metric completion of the smooth part is a non-collapsed RCD space, and is…
In this paper, we prove an existence result for K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on $\mathbb Q$-Fano compactifications of Lie groups. As an application, we classify $\mathbb Q$-Fano compactifications of $SO_4(\mathbb C)$ which admit a…
Let $X$ denote the complex projective plane, blown up at the nine base points of a pencil of cubics, and let $D$ be any fiber of the resulting elliptic fibration on $X$. Using ansatz metrics inspired by work of Gross-Wilson and a PDE method…
Every compact K\"ahler manifold with negative first Chern class admits a unique metric $g$ such that $\text{Ric}(g) = -g$. Understanding how families of these metrics degenerate gives insight into their geometry and is important for…
Using methods of A. Grigor'yan and L. Saloff-Coste we prove that on a manifold with a conical end the heat kernel has a Gaussian bound. This result is applied to asymptotically conical K\"ahler manifolds. It is a result of the author and R.…
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…
In this expository article we review the problem of finding Einstein metrics on compact K\"ahler manifolds and Sasaki manifolds. In the former half of this article we see that, in the K\"ahler case, the problem fits better with the notion…
We prove that a complete K\"ahler manifold with holomorphic curvature bounded between two negative constants admits a unique complete K\"ahler-Einstein metric. We also show this metric and the Kobayashi-Royden metric are both uniformly…
Using Seiberg-Witten theory, it is shown that any Kaehler metric of constant negative scalar curvature on a compact 4-manifold M minimizes the L^2-norm of scalar curvature among Riemannian metrics compatible with a fixed decomposition…
In the present paper and the companion paper [8] a probabilistic (statistical mechanical) approach to the study of canonical metrics and measures on a complex algebraic variety X is introduced. On any such variety with positive Kodaira…
We extend Tsuji's iterative construction of complete K\"ahler--Einstein metrics with negative scalar curvature to noncompact K\"ahler manifolds with bounded geometry, using Berndtsson's method from the compact setting. Consequently, given a…
We give an elementary treatment of the existence of complete Kahler-Einstein metrics with nonpositive Einstein constant and underlying manifold diffeomorphic to the tangent bundle of the (n+1)-sphere.
We prove that for a residual (and hence dense) subset $\mathcal{G}$ of Riemannian metrics on $S^{n+1}$ in the $C^{3}$ topology, no area-minimizing integral $n$-current that is a boundary admits a singular tangent cone which is linearly…
This is a continuation of paper \cite{Li}. On any toric Fano manifold, we discuss the behavior of limit metric of a sequence of metrics, which are solutions to a continuity family of complex Monge-Ampere equations in Kahler-Einstein…
Considering a non-constant smooth solution $f$ of the Tanno equation on a closed, connected K\"ahler manifold $(M,g,J)$ with positively definite metric $g$, Tanno showed that the manifold can be finitely covered by…
Supersymmetric domain-wall spacetimes that lift to Ricci-flat solutions of M-theory admit generalized Heisenberg (2-step nilpotent) isometry groups. These metrics may be obtained from known cohomogeneity one metrics of special holonomy by…
This paper is concerned with the construction of special metrics on non-compact 4-manifolds which arise as resolutions of complex orbifold singularities. Our study is close in spirit to the construction of the hyperkaehler gravitational…
Motivated by the work of Li and Mantoulidis, we study singular metrics which are uniformly Euclidean $(L^\infty)$ on a compact manifold $M^n$ ($n\ge 3$) with negative Yamabe invariant $\sigma(M)$. It is well-known that if $g$ is a smooth…
