Consider a compact K\"ahler manifold which either admits an extremal K\"ahler metric, or is a small deformation of such a manifold. We show that the blowup of the manifold at a point admits an extremal K\"ahler metric in K\"ahler classes…

It is conjectured that the existence of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics will be equivalent to K-stability, or K-polystability depending on terminology (Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture). There is another GIT stability condition,…

In this paper, we shall show that a polarized algebraic manifold is K-stable if the polarization class admits a Kaehler metric of constant scalar curvature. This generalizes the results of Chen-Tian, Donaldson and Stoppa. (Parts of the…

We show that a polarised manifold with a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metric and discrete automorphisms is K-stable. This refines the K-semistability proved by S. K. Donaldson.

K-polystability of a polarised variety is an algebro-geometric notion conjecturally equivalent to the existence of a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metric. When a variety is K-unstable, it is expected to admit a "most destabilising"…

We study the existence of extremal K\"ahler metrics on K\"ahler manifolds. After introducing a notion of relative K-stability for K\"ahler manifolds, we prove that K\"ahler manifolds admitting extremal K\"ahler metrics are relatively…

We formulate a notion of K-stability for K\"ahler manifolds, and prove one direction of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture in this setting. More precisely, we prove that the Mabuchi functional being bounded below (resp. coercive) implies…

In this paper, by generalizing the concept of balanced metrics, we shall show that Donaldson's asymptotic approximation of balanced metrics for constant scalar curvature cases can be generalized to extremal Kaehler cases.

We embed polarised orbifolds with cyclic stabiliser groups into weighted projective space via a weighted form of Kodaira embedding. Dividing by the (non-reductive) automorphisms of weighted projective space then formally gives a moduli…

Let (X,L) be a polarised manifold. We show that K-stability and asymptotic Chow stability of the blowup of X along a 0-dimensional cycle are closely related to Chow stability of the cycle itself, for polarizations making the exceptional…

We survey some recent developments in the direction of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture, which relates the existence of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics to the algebro-geometric notion of K-stability. The emphasis is put on the…

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…

We define a quantisation of the J-flow over a projective complex manifold. As corollaries, we obtain new proofs of uniqueness of critical points of the J-flow and that these critical points achieve the absolute minimum of an associated…

In this paper we study K-polystability of arbitrary (possibly non-projective) compact K\"ahler manifolds admitting holomorphic vector fields. As a main result, we show that existence of a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (cscK) metric…

From the work of Dervan-Keller, there exists a quantization of the critical equation for the J-flow. This leads to the notion of J-balanced metrics. We prove that the existence of J-balanced metrics has a purely algebro-geometric…

We propose an algebraic geometric stability criterion for a polarised variety to admit an extremal Kaehler metric. This generalises conjectures by Yau, Tian and Donaldson which relate to the case of Kaehler-Einstein and constant scalar…

In this note, given a polarized algebraic manifold $(X,L)$, we define the Donaldson-Futaki invariant for a sequence of test configurations for $(X,L)$ with exponents tending to infinity. This then allows us to define a strong version of…

Donaldson proved that if a polarized manifold $(V,L)$ has constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics in $c_1(L)$ and its automorphism group Aut$(M,L)$ is discrete, $(V,L)$ is asymptotically Chow stable. In this paper, we shall show an…

We introduce a notion of a K\"ahler metric with constant weighted scalar curvature on a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$, depending on a fixed real torus $\mathbb{T}$ in the reduced group of automorphisms of $X$, and two smooth (weight)…

An almost K\"ahler structure is {\it extremal} if the Hermitian scalar curvature is a Killing potential [29]. When the almost complex structure is integrable it coincides with extremal K\"ahler metric in the sense of Calabi [8]. We observe…
