An introduction is provided to some current research trends in stability in geometric invariant theory and the problem of Kaehler metrics of constant scalar curvature. Besides classical notions such as Chow-Mumford stability, the emphasis…
Using log canonical thresholds and basis divisors Fujita--Odaka introduced purely algebro-geometric invariants $\delta_m$ whose limit in $m$ is now known to characterize uniform K-stability on a Fano variety. As shown by Blum-Jonsson this…
We study chiral rings of 4d $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric gauge theories via the notion of K-stability. We show that when using Hilbert series to perform the computations of Futaki invariants, it is not enough to only include the test…
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…
We generalise partial results about the Yau-Tian-Donaldson correspondence on ruled manifolds to bundles whose fibre is a classical flag variety. This is done using Chern class computations involving the combinatorics of Schur functors. The…
Recent work on flux compactifications suggests that the tadpole constraint generically allows only a limited number of complex structure moduli to become massive, i.e., be stabilized at quadratic order in the spacetime superpotential. We…
G. Tian and S.K. Donaldson formulated a conjecture relating GIT stability of a polarized algebraic variety to the existence of a Kahler metric of constant scalar curvature. In [Don02] Donaldson partially confirmed it in the case of…
We formulate an effective variant of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture, then review effective results on K-stability of spherical varieties, that is, K-stability criterions which can be effectively computed given the combinatorial data…
In 1987, the $\alpha$-invariant theorem gave a fundamental criterion for existence of Kahler-Einstein metrics on smooth Fano manifolds. In 2012, Odaka-Sano extended the framework to $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties in terms of K-stability, and…
We prove that the Landau--Ginzburg superpotential of del Pezzo surfaces can be realized as a limit of their hyperK\"ahler rotation toward the large complex structure limit point. As a corollary, we compute the limit of the complex affine…
The Donaldson-Fujiki K\"ahler reduction of the space of compatible almost complex structures, leading to the interpretation of the scalar curvature of K\"ahler metrics as a moment map, can be lifted canonically to a hyperk\"ahler reduction.…
We study tilting for the heart A of the canonical t-structure of the finite-dimensional derived category of the Ginzburg algebra for a quiver with potential (Q,W). We give conditions on that the stable objects for a central charge on A…
Let (X,\Omega) be a closed polarized complex manifold, g be an extremal metric on X that represents the K\"ahler class \Omega, and G be a compact connected subgroup of the isometry group Isom(X,g). Assume that the Futaki invariant relative…
In this thesis we study the relationship between the existence of canonical metrics on a complex manifold and stability in the sense of geometric invariant theory. We introduce a modification of K-stability of a polarised variety which we…
We provide a sufficient condition for polarisations of Fano varieties to be K-stable in terms of Tian's alpha invariant, which uses the log canonical threshold to measure singularities of divisors in the linear system associated to the…
We propose a new mechanism for stabilization of confined modes in lasers and semiconductor microcavities holding exciton-polariton condensates, with spatially uniform linear gain, cubic loss, and cubic self-focusing or defocusing…
We consider the problem of existence of constant scalar curvature Kaehler metrics on complete intersections of sections of vector bundles. In particular we give general formulas relating the Futaki invariant of such a manifold to the weight…
In this thesis we discuss various classical problems in enumerative geometry. We are focused on ideas and methods which can be used explicitly for practical computations. Our approach is based on studying the limits of elliptic stable…
Let $\sigma$ be a stability condition on the bounded derived category $D^b({\mathop{\rm Coh}\nolimits} W)$ of a Calabi-Yau threefold $W$ and $\mathcal{M}$ a moduli stack parametrizing $\sigma$-semistable objects of fixed topological type.…
We introduce an analogue of Bridgeland's stability conditions for polarised varieties. Much as Bridgeland stability is modelled on slope stability of coherent sheaves, our notion of Z-stability is modelled on the notion of K-stability of…
