Let $M=P(E)$ be the complex manifold underlying the total space of the projectivization of a holomorphic vector bundle $E \to \Sigma$ over a compact complex curve $\Sigma$ of genus $\ge 2$. Building on ideas of Fujiki, we prove that $M$…

We establish the essentially optimal form of Donaldson's geodesic stability conjecture regarding existence of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics. We carry this out by exploring in detail the metric geometry of Mabuchi geodesic rays,…

Let (X,L) be a polarized K\"ahler manifold that admits an extremal K\"ahler metric in c1(L). We show that on a nearby polarized deformation that preserves the symmetry induced by the extremal vector field of (X,L), the modified K-energy is…

We use the correspondence between extremal Sasaki structures and weighted extremal Kahler metrics defined on a regular quotient of a Sasaki manifold, established by the first two authors, and Lahdili's theory of weighted K-stability in…

In the present paper, we prove a stability theorem for the Kaehler Ricci flow near the infimum of the functional E_1 under the assumption that the initial metric has Ricci > -1 and |Riem| bounded. At present stage, our main theorem still…

In this paper we show that on a Fano manifold the convergence of the K\"ahler-Ricci flow to a K\"ahler-Einstein metric follows from the integrability of the $L^2$ norm of the Ricci potential for positive time.

Using spin$^c$ structure we prove that K\"ahler-Einstein metrics with nonpositive scalar curvature are stable (in the direction of changes in conformal structures) as the critical points of the total scalar curvature functional. Moreover if…

Given a K\"ahler fiber space $p:X\to Y$ whose generic fiber is of general type, we prove that the fiberwise singular K\"ahler-Einstein metric induces a semipositively curved metric on the relative canonical bundle $K_{X/Y}$ of $p$. We also…

We identify a set of "energy" functionals on the space of metrics in a given Kaehler class on a Calabi-Yau manifold, which are bounded below and minimized uniquely on the Ricci-flat metric in that class. Using these functionals, we recast…

In this article, we will characterize regular points respectively by the local vanishing, positivity of the Ricci curvature and $L^2$-solvability of the $\overline\partial$-equation together with Skoda's theorem for Nadel-Lebesgue…

This paper concerns the explicit construction of extremal Kaehler metrics on total spaces of projective bundles, which have been studied in many places. We present a unified approach, motivated by the theory of hamiltonian 2-forms (as…

We introduce and construct a novel type of canonical metric: the semi-flat constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (semi-flat cscK) current, which naturally arises in Calabi-Yau fibrations. For a given elliptic surface $X$ with a holomorphic…

The purpose of this paper is to investigate canonical metrics on a semi-stable vector bundle E over a compact Kahler manifold X. It is shown that, if E is semi-stable, then Donaldson's functional is bounded from below. This implies that E…

We study singular K\"ahler-Einstein metrics that are obtained as non-collapsed limits of polarized K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds. Our main result is that if the metric tangent cone at a point is locally isomorphic to the germ of the…

In this paper, we make a generalization of the results in \cite{Li22a} to the singular and weighted setting. In particular, we show that on a polarized projective klt variety, the $\mathbb{G}$-uniform weighted K-stability for models implies…

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,…

We introduce the coupled Ricci-Calabi functional and the coupled H-functional which measure how far from a coupled K\"ahler-Einstein metric in the sense of Hultgren-Witt Nystr\"om. We first give corresponding moment weight type inequalities…

This is an account of some aspects of the geometry of K\"ahler affine metrics based on considering them as smooth metric measure spaces and applying the comparison geometry of Bakry-Emery Ricci tensors. Such techniques yield a version for…

In this paper, we extend the existence and regularity theorems for K\"ahler-Einstein metrics having conic singularities along a simple normal crossing divisor to the case of normal crossing divisor, i.e. when components of the divisor are…
