We show that a projective manifold is stable if and only if the Mabuchi energy is proper on the space of algebraic metrics. We show that stability implies finite automorphism group.

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…

Consider a polarized complex manifold (X,L) and a ray of positive metrics on L defined by a positive metric on a test configuration for (X,L). For most of the common functionals in K\"ahler geometry, we prove that the slope at infinity…

Yau conjectured that a Fano manifold admits a Kahler-Einstein metric if and only if it is stable in the sense of geometric invariant theory. There has been much progress on this conjecture by Tian, Donaldson and others. The Mabuchi energy…

An explicit seminorm $||f||_{#}$ on the vector space of Chow vectors of projective varieties is introduced, and shown to be a generalized Mabuchi energy functional for Chow varieties. The singularities of the Chow varieties give rise to…

We consider the K\"ahler-Ricci flow on a Fano manifold. We show that if the curvature remains uniformly bounded along the flow, the Mabuchi energy is bounded below, and the manifold is K-polystable, then the manifold admits a…

We make a systematic study of the Hilbert-Mumford criterion for different notions of stability for polarised algebraic varieties $(X,L)$; in particular for K- and Chow stability. For each type of stability this leads to a concept of slope…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a K\"ahler manifold and let $K$ be a compact group that acts on $M$ in a Hamiltonian fashion. We study the action of $K^\mathbb{C}$ on probability measures on $M$. First of all we identify an abstract setting for the…

Mabuchi solitons generalize K\"{a}hler-Einstein metrics on Fano manifolds, which constitute a Yau-Tian-Donaldson type correspondence with relative Ding stability. Comparing with K\"{a}hler-Ricci solitons, there is a distinct necessary…

We show that a compact weighted extremal Kahler manifold (as defined by the third named author) has coercive weighted Mabuchi energy with respect to a maximal complex torus in the reduced group of complex automorphisms. This provides a vast…

We show that if a Fano manifold $M$ is K-stable with respect to special degenerations equivariant under a compact group of automorphisms, then $M$ admits a K\"ahler-Einstein metric. This is a strengthening of the solution of the…

Let X be a Fano manifold. G.Tian proves that if X admits a Kaehler-Einstein metric, then it satisfies two different stability conditions: one involving the Futaki invariant of a special degeneration of X, the other Hilbert-Mumford-stability…

We study the stability of compact pseudo-K\"ahler manifolds, i.e. compact complex manifolds $X$ endowed with a symplectic form compatible with the complex structure of $X$. When the corresponding metric is positive-definite, $X$ is K\"ahler…

Let (X,L) be a polarized projective complex manifold. We show, by a simple toric one-dimensional example, that Mabuchi's K-energy functional on the geodesically complete space of bounded positive (1,1)-forms in the first Chern class of L,…

We show that the Mabuchi energy of any polarized manifold (X,L) is (bounded below) proper on the full space of Kahler metrics in the first Chern class of L if and only if (X,L) is asymptotically (semi)stable. In particular it now follows…

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…

For Fano manifolds T. Mabuchi introduced a generalization of the K\"ahler-Einstein metric, which is characterized as the critical point of the Ricci-Calabi functional. We show that a Fano manifold admits Mabuchi's metric if and only if it…

We show that any $n$-dimensional Fano manifold $X$ with $\alpha(X)=n/(n+1)$ and $n\geq 2$ is K-stable, where $\alpha(X)$ is the alpha invariant of $X$ introduced by Tian. In particular, any such $X$ admits K\"ahler-Einstein metrics and the…

We prove the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for cohomogeneity one manifolds, that is, for projective manifolds equipped with a holomorphic action of a compact Lie group with at least one real hypersurface orbit. Contrary to what seems to be…

We prove that the stability condition for Fano manifolds defined by Saito-Takahashi, given in terms of the sum of the Ding invariant and the Chow weight, is equivalent to the existence of anticanonically balanced metrics. Combined with the…
