We show that an enlargeable Riemannian metric on a (possibly nonspin) manifold cannot have uniformly positive scalar curvature. This extends a well-known result of Gromov and Lawson to the nonspin setting. We also prove that every…

We prove that a Kahler metric in the anticanonical class which is a critical point of the functional E_k and has nonnegative Ricci curvature, is necessarily Kahler-Einstein. This partially answers a question of X.X.Chen.

We study Laplace eigenvalues $\lambda_k$ on K\"ahler manifolds as functionals on the space of K\"ahler metrics with cohomologous K\"ahler forms. We introduce a natural notion of a $\lambda_k$-extremal K\"ahler metric and obtain necessary…

For any $G$-invariant metric on a compact homogeneous space $M=G/K$, we give a formula for the Lichnerowicz Laplacian restricted to the space of all $G$-invariant symmetric $2$-tensors in terms of the structural constants of $G/K$. As an…

Using Seiberg-Witten theory, it is shown that any Kaehler metric of constant negative scalar curvature on a compact 4-manifold M minimizes the L^2-norm of scalar curvature among Riemannian metrics compatible with a fixed decomposition…

We address the problem of curvature estimation from sampled compact sets. The main contribution is a stability result: we show that the gaussian, mean or anisotropic curvature measures of the offset of a compact set K with positive…

The Kreck-Stolz $s$-invariant is a classic path-component invariant for the space and moduli space of positive scalar curvature metrics. It is an absolute (as opposed to relative) invariant, but this strength comes at the expense of being…

In this paper, we generalize our apriori estimates on cscK(constant scalar curvature K\"ahler) metric equation to more general scalar curvature type equations (e.g., twisted cscK metric equation). As applications, under the assumption that…

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…

We establish a regularity result for the metric on any 4-dimensional extremal K\"ahler manifold, and a weak compactness theorem on the space of such metrics. Specifically, the sectional curvature at a point is bounded when the quantity…

We propose new types of canonical metrics on K\"ahler manifolds, called coupled K\"ahler-Einstein metrics, generalizing K\"ahler-Einstein metrics. We prove existence and uniqueness results in the cases when the canonical bundle is ample and…

In K-stability, the delta invariant of a Fano variety encodes the existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics. We introduce a weighted analytic delta invariant, and a reduced version, that characterize the existence of weighted solitons. We…

In this paper we prove that the set of metrics conformal to the standard metric on $\mathbb{S}^{n}\backslash\{p_{1},\cdots,p_{l}\}$ is locally compact in $C^{m,\alpha}$ topology for any $m>0$, whenever the metrics have constant $\sigma_{k}$…
