We exhibit families of Ricci-flat Kahler metrics on K3 surfaces which collapse to an interval, with Tian-Yau and Taub-NUT metrics occurring as bubbles. There is a corresponding continuous surjective map from the K3 surface to the interval,…
We study issues pertaining to the Ricci-flatness of metrics on orbifolds resolved by D-branes. We find a K\"ahler metric on the three-dimensional orbifold $\C^3/\Z_3$, resolved by D-branes, following an approach due to Guillemin. This…

Let (M,J) be a compact complex 2-manifold which which admits a Kaehler metric for which the integral of the scalar curvature is non-negative. Also suppose that M does not admit a Ricci-flat K\"ahler metric. Then if M is blown up at…
