Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold and $S$ a subvariety of $X$ with higher co-dimension. The aim is to study complete constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics on non-compact K\"ahler manifold $X-S$ with Poincar\'e--Mok--Yau asymptotic…

We extend the classical Donaldson-Fujiki interpretation of the scalar curvature as moment map in K\"ahler Geometry to the wider framework of locally conformally K\"ahler Geometry.

The chiral scalar-tensor theory is an extension of the Chern-Simons modified gravity by introducing couplings between the first and second derivatives of the scalar field and parity-violating spacetime curvatures. A key feature of this…

In this paper, we investigate the noncompact prescribed Chern scalar curvature problem which reduces to solve a Kazdan-Warner type equation on noncompact non-K\"{a}hler manifolds. By introducing an analytic condition on noncompact…

A long-standing conjecture in complex geometry says that a compact Hermitian manifold with constant holomorphic sectional curvature must be K\"ahler when the constant is non-zero and must be Chern flat when the constant is zero. The…

In this paper we study almost complex manifolds admitting a quasi-K\"ahler Chern-flat metric (Chern-flat means that the holonomy of the Chern connection is trivial). We prove that in the compact case such manifolds are all nilmanifolds.…

Perturbations of Kantowski-Sachs models with a positive cosmological constant are considered in a harmonic decomposition, in the framework of gauge invariant 1+3 and 1+1+2 covariant splits of spacetime. Scalar, vector and tensor modes are…

We give examples of smooth surfaces with negative first Chern class which are slope unstable with respect to certain polarisations, and so have Kahler classes that do not admit any constant scalar curvature Kahler metrics. We also compare…

We show that the scalar curvature is uniformly bounded for the normalized Kahler-Ricci flow on a Kahler manifold with semi-ample canonical bundle. In particular, the normalized Kahler-Ricci flow has long time existence if and only if the…
