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…
Based on Donaldson's method, we prove that, for an integral Kahler class, when there is a Kahler metric of constant scalar curvature, then it minimizes the K-energy. We do not assume that the automorphism group is discrete.
We introduce a class of almost homogeneous varieties contained in the class of spherical varieties and containing horospherical varieties as well as complete symmetric varieties. We develop K{\"a}hler geometry on these varieties, with…
We study a system of equations on a compact complex manifold, that couples the scalar curvature of a Kaehler metric with a spectral function of a first-order deformation of the complex structure. The system comes from an…

Given a compact K\"ahler manifold, we survey the study of complex Monge-Amp\`ere type equations with prescribed singularity type, developed by the authors in a series of papers. In addition, we give a general answer to a question of…
Motivated by constructions appearing in mirror symmetry, we study special representatives of complexified K\"ahler classes, which extend the notions of constant scalar curvature and extremal representatives for usual K\"ahler classes. In…
We prove that constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (cscK) manifolds with transcendental cohomology class are K-semistable, naturally generalising the situation for polarised manifolds. Relying on a very recent result by R. Berman, T. Darvas…
Finite energy pluripotential theory accommodates the variational theory of equations of complex Monge-Amp\`ere type arising in K\"ahler geometry. Recently it has been discovered that many of the potential spaces involved have a rich metric…
In this note, we shall prove geodesic convexity of the space of K\"ahler potentials on an ALE K\"ahler manifold. This extends earlier results in the compact case proved in the fundamental work of X-X. Chen. We further prove the boundedness…
Given a compact polarized K\"ahler manifold $X\hookrightarrow\mathbb{CP}^N$, the space of Bergman metrics on $X$, parameterized by $\mathrm{SL}(N+1,\mathbb{C})$, corresponds to a dense set in the space of K\"ahler potentials in the K\"ahler…
Given a compact K\"ahler manifold, to better understand Mabuchi's $K$ energy we introduce a family of $K^\beta$ energies, whose favorable properties are similar to those of the Ding energy from the Fano case. The construction uses Berman's…
In this paper, we study Mabuchi's K-energy on a compactification M of a reductive Lie group G, which is a complexification of its maximal compact subgroup K. We give a criterion for the properness of K-energy on the space of K \times…
We study degenerate complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations on a compact K\"ahler manifold $(X,\omega)$. We show that the complex Monge-Amp\`ere operator $(\omega + dd^c \cdot)^n$ is well-defined on the class ${\mathcal E}(X,\omega)$ of…
The K\"ahler metric which has been constructed by present author is used in this paper to find an exact solution of Einstein equations with energy-momentum tensor of special type. The type of $T_{ij}$ admits in particular to use it as…
We show that K-energy minimizing movements agree with smooth solutions to Calabi flow as long as the latter exist. As corollaries we conclude that in a general Kahler class long time solutions of Calabi flow minimize both K-energy and…
We investigate the supersymmetric extension of k-field models, in which the scalar field is described by generalized dynamics. We illustrate some results with models that support static solutions with the standard kink or the compact…
