We show that any quantum irreducible flag manifold satisfies an analogue of the Einstein condition, expressing proportionality between the Ricci tensor and the metric, at least in a small open interval around the classical value of the…
We introduce the notion of a hamiltonian 2-form on a Kaehler manifold and obtain a complete local classification. This notion appears to play a pivotal role in several aspects of Kaehler geometry. In particular, on any Kaehler manifold with…
On an oriented 4-manifold, we study pairs of Riemannian metrics $(g, h)$ for which the curvature tensor of $g$ preserves the Hodge splitting determined by $h$. This extends the Einstein condition in dimension four, which is recovered when…
We derive expressions for the Ricci curvature tensor and scalar in terms of intrinsic torsion classes of half-flat manifolds by exploiting the relationship between half-flat manifolds and non-compact $G_2$ holonomy manifolds. Our…
We prove compactification theorems for some complete K\"ahler manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. Among other things, we prove that a complete noncompact K\"ahler Ricci flat manifold with maximal volume growth and quadratic…
We introduce a large class of canonical K\"ahler metrics, called in this paper well-behaved, extending metrics induced by complex space forms. We study K\"ahler--Ricci iterations of well-behaved metrics on compact and non-compact K\"ahler…
Let X be a compact Kahler orbifold without \C-codimension-1 singularities. Let D be a suborbifold divisor in X such that D \supset Sing(X) and -pK_X = q[D] for some p, q \in \N with q > p. Assume that D is Fano. We prove the following two…
We show that every quaternion-K\"ahler manifold of negative scalar curvature is stable as an Einstein manifold and therefore scalar curvature rigid. In particular, this implies that every irreducible nonpositive Einstein manifold of special…
We prove that the non-Kahler locus of a nef and big class on a compact complex manifold bimeromorphic to a Kahler manifold equals its null locus. In particular this gives an analytic proof of a theorem of Nakamaye and…
For an infinitesimal deformation of a Riemannian manifold, we prove that the scalar, vector, and tensor modes in decompositions of perturbations of the metric tensor, the scalar curvature, the Ricci tensor, and the Einstein tensor decouple…
Given two homogeneous spaces of the form G_1/K and G_2/K, where G_1 and G_2 are compact simple Lie groups, we study the existence problem for G_1xG_2-invariant Einstein metrics on the homogeneous space M=G_1xG_2/K. For the large subclass C…
We consider complete K\"ahler manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. The main results are: 1. When the manifold has nonnegative bisectional curvature, we show that $\lim\limits_{r\to\infty}\frac{r^{2}}{vol(B(p, r))}\int_{B(p, r)}S$…
A. Derdzinki [D] gave examples of Riemannian metrics with harmonic curvature and non parallel Ricci tensor on some compact manifolds $(M,g]$ . We examine their existence as well as their number wich naturally depends on the geometry of the…
In this article, we thoroughly investigate the stability inequality for Ricci-flat cones. Perhaps most importantly, we prove that the Ricci-flat cone over CP^2 is stable, showing that the first stable non-flat Ricci-flat cone occurs in the…
This work establishes a structure theorem for compact K\"ahler manifolds with semipositive anticanonical bundle. Up to finite \'etale cover, it is proved that such manifolds split holomorphically and isometrically as a product of Ricci flat…
A Riemannian manifold (M,g) is said to be Einstein if its Ricci tensor satisfies ric(g) = cg, for some real number c. In the homogeneous case, a problem that is still open is the so called Alekseevskii Conjecture. This conjecture says that…
Let $(g, X)$ be a K\"ahler-Ricci soliton on a complex manifold $M$. We prove that if the K\"ahler manifold $(M, g)$ can be K\"ahler immersed into a definite or indefinite complex space form of constant holomorphic sectional curvature $2c$,…
Four dimensional simply connected Lie groups admitting a pseudo K\"ahler metric are determined. The corresponding Lie algebras are modelized and the compatible pairs $(J,\omega)$ are parametrized up to complex isomorphism (where $J$ is a…
We show the existence of strictly almost-Kahler anti-self-dual metrics on certain 4-manifolds by deforming scalar-flat Kahler metrics. On the other hand, we prove the non-existence of such metrics on certain other 4-manifolds by means of…
We consider the space of Kahler metrics as a Riemannian submanifold of the space of Riemannian metrics, and study the associated submanifold geometry. In particular, we show that the intrinsic and extrinsic distance functions are…
