Small deformations of the complex structure do not always preserve special metric properties in the Hermitian non-K\"ahler setting. In this paper, we find necessary conditions for the existence of smooth curves of balanced metrics…
A Hermitian metric on a complex manifold of complex dimension $n$ is called {\em astheno-K\"ahler} if its fundamental $2$-form $F$ satisfies the condition $\partial \overline \partial F^{n - 2} =0$. If $n =3$, then the metric is {\em strong…
Existence of strong K\"ahler with torsion metrics, shortly SKT metrics, on complex manifolds has been shown to be unstable under small deformations. We find necessary conditions under which the property of being SKT is stable for a smooth…
We study Hermitian geometrically formal metrics on compact complex manifolds, focusing on Dolbeault, Bott-Chern, and Aeppli cohomologies. We establish topological and cohomological obstructions to their existence and we provide a detailed…

Let $(X,\omega)$ be a compact hermitian manifold of dimension $n$. We study the asymptotic behavior of Monge-Amp\`ere volumes $\int_X (\omega+dd^c \varphi)^n$, when $\omega+dd^c \varphi$ varies in the set of hermitian forms that are…

A Hermitian metric on a complex manifold is called strong K\"ahler with torsion (SKT) if its fundamental 2-form $\omega$ is $\partial \bar \partial$-closed. We review some properties of strong KT metrics also in relation with symplectic…
An SKT metric is a Hermitian metric on a complex manifold whose fundamental 2-form $\omega$ satisfies $\de\debar\omega=0$. Streets and Tian introduced in \cite{sttiPlur} a Ricci-type flow that preserves the SKT condition. This flow uses the…

In a Riemannian manifold with a smooth positive function that weights the associated Hausdorff measures we study stable sets, i.e., second order minima of the weighted perimeter under variations preserving the weighted volume. By assuming…
Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold of dimension $n$ and let $m$ be a positive integer with $m\leq n$. Assume that $X$ admits a K\"ahler metric $\omega$ and a weakly positive, $\partial\bar\partial$-closed, smooth $(n-m,\,n-m)$-form…

We introduce a countable collection of positivity classes for Hermitian symmetric functions on a complex manifold, and establish their basic properties. We study a related notion of stability. The first main result shows that, if the…
