We prove a theorem which asserts that the Lie algebra of all holomorphic vector fields on a compact K\"ahler manifold with a perturbed extremal metric has the structure similar to the case of an unperturbed extremal K\"ahler metric proved…

We consider constant scalar curvature K\"{a}hler metrics on a smooth minimal model of general type in a neighborhood of the canonical class, which is the perturbation of the canonical class by a fixed K\"{a}hler metric. We show that…

We characterize homogeneous hypersurfaces in complex space forms which arise as critical points of a higher order energy functional. As a consequence, we obtain existence and non-existence results for $\mathbb{CP}^n$ and $\mathbb{CH}^n$,…

The Schur-Horn theorem is a well-known result that characterizes the relationship between the diagonal elements and eigenvalues of a symmetric (Hermitian) matrix. In this paper, we extend this theorem by exploring the eigenvalue…

For every compact Kaehler manifold we give a canonical extension of Griffith's period map to generalized deformations, intended as solutions of Maurer-Cartan equation in the algebra of polyvector fields. Our construction involves the notion…

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…

We provide a moment map interpretation for the coupled K\"ahler-Einstein equations introduced by Hultgren and Witt Nystr\"om, and in the process introduce a more general system of equations, which we call coupled cscK equations. A…

We show that Hermitian metrics with vanishing holomorphic curvature on compact complex manifolds with pseudoeffective canonical bundle are conformally balanced. Pluriclosed metrics with vanishing holomorphic curvature on compact K\"ahler…

In a previous paper [\AS], we used superspace techniques to prove that perturbation theory (around a classical solution with no zero modes) for Chern--Simons quantum field theory on a general $3$-manifold $M$ is finite. We conjectured (and…

In this paper, we establish Chern number identities on compact complex surfaces. As an application, we prove that if $(M,g)$ is a compact Riemannian four-manifold with constant scalar curvature and admits a compatible complex structure $J$…

In this paper we study the concept of characteristic numbers and Chern slopes in the context of curve configurations in the real and complex projective plane. We show that some extremal line configurations inherit the same asymptotic…

In this paper we give sufficient conditions on a compact orbifold with an extremal Kaehler metric to admit a resolution with an extremal Kaehler metric. We also complete the Kaehler constant scalar curvature case.

We generalize the Chern-Simons modified gravity to the metric-affine case and impose projective invariance by supplementing the Pontryagin density with homothetic curvature terms which do not spoil topologicity. The latter is then broken by…

For a harmonic map $u:M^3\to S^1$ on a closed, oriented $3$--manifold, we establish the identity $$2\pi \int_{\theta\in S^1}\chi(\Sigma_{\theta})\geq \frac{1}{2}\int_{\theta\in S^1}\int_{\Sigma_{\theta}}(|du|^{-2}|Hess(u)|^2+R_M)$$ relating…

We prove that constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (cscK) manifolds with transcendental cohomology class are K-semistable, naturally generalising the situation for polarised manifolds. Relying on a very recent result by R. Berman, T. Darvas…

In a recent work, Kai Tang conjectured that any compact Hermitian manifold with non-zero constant mixed curvature must be K\"ahler. He confirmed the conjecture in complex dimension $2$ and for Chern K\"ahler-like manifolds in general…

We study harmonic and quasi-harmonic discs in metric spaces admitting a uniformly local quadratic isoperimetric inequality for curves. The class of such metric spaces includes compact Lipschitz manifolds, metric spaces with upper or lower…

This paper is concerned with the existence of constant scalar curvature Kaehler metrics on blow ups at finitely many points of compact manifolds which already carry constant scalar curvature Kaehler metrics. We also consider the…

In this paper, we study the existence of various harmonic maps from Hermitian manifolds to Kaehler, Hermitian and Riemannian manifolds respectively. By using refined Bochner formulas on Hermitian (possibly non-Kaehler) manifolds, we derive…

In this paper we introduce a class of polygonal complexes for which we can define a notion of sectional combinatorial curvature. These complexes can be viewed as generalizations of 2-dimensional Euclidean and hyperbolic buildings. We focus…
