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,…

In this paper, we shall show that a polarized algebraic manifold is K-stable if the polarization class admits a Kaehler metric of constant scalar curvature. This generalizes the results of Chen-Tian, Donaldson and Stoppa. (Parts of the…

Consider a compact K\"ahler manifold which either admits an extremal K\"ahler metric, or is a small deformation of such a manifold. We show that the blowup of the manifold at a point admits an extremal K\"ahler metric in K\"ahler classes…

An asymptotic formula for the Tian-Paul CM-line of a flat family blown-up at a flat closed sub-scheme is given. As an application we prove that the blow-up of a polarized manifold along a (relatively) Chow-unstable submanifold admits no…

We show that the blowup of an extremal Kahler manifold at a relatively stable point in the sense of GIT admits an extremal metric in Kahler classes that make the exceptional divisor sufficiently small, extending a result of…

We show that a polarised manifold with a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metric and discrete automorphisms is K-stable. This refines the K-semistability proved by S. K. Donaldson.

We study the K-stability of a polarised variety with non-reductive automorphism group. We associate a canonical filtration of the co-ordinate ring to each variety of this kind, which destabilises the variety in several examples which we…

For a polarized algebraic manifold $(X,L)$, let $T$ be an algebraic torus in the group of all holomorphic automorphisms of $X$. Then strong relative K-stability will be shown to imply asymptotic relative Chow-stability. In particular, by…

Parabolic structures with rational weights encode certain iterated blowups of geometrically ruled surfaces. In this paper, we show that the three notions of parabolic polystability, K-polystability and existence of constant scalar curvature…

This is a continuation of the work of Arezzo-Pacard-Singer and the author on blowups of extremal K\"ahler manifolds. We prove the conjecture stated in [32], and we relate this result to the K-stability of blown up manifolds. As an…

Donaldson proved that if a polarized manifold $(V,L)$ has constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics in $c_1(L)$ and its automorphism group Aut$(M,L)$ is discrete, $(V,L)$ is asymptotically Chow stable. In this paper, we shall show an…

We investigate Chow stability of projective bundles P(E) where E is a strictly Gieseker stable bundle over a base manifold that has constant scalar curvature. We show that, for suitable polarisations L, the pair (P(E),L) is Chow stable and…

The holomorphic invariants introduced by Futaki as obstruction to the asymptotic Chow semistability are studied by an algebraic-geometric point of view and are shown to be the Mumford weights of suitable line bundles on the Hilbert scheme.…

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…

In the previous article (\cite{S}), we proved that slope stability of a holomorphic vector bundle $E$ over a polarized manifold $(X,L)$ implies Chow stability of $(\mathbb{P}E^*,\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}E^*}(1)\otimes \pi^* L^k)$ for $k \gg…

We extend an argument of Stoppa to make some prgress towards a proof that K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds are "b-stable". We point out some algebro-geometric questions, involving finite generation, that arise.

Donaldson showed that the constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics can be quantized by the balanced Hermitian norms on the spaces of global sections. We explore an analogous problem in the unstable situation. For a K-unstable manifold…

We investigate the K-stability of certain blow-ups of $\mathbb{P}^1$-bundles over a Fano variety $V$, where the $\mathbb{P}^1$-bundle is the projective compactification of a line bundle $L$ proportional to $-K_V$ and the center of the…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective toric variety, and let $\widetilde{X}$ denote the blow-up of $X$ at finitely many distinct tours-invariant points. This paper provides an explicit combinatorial formula for the Chow weight of $\widetilde{X}$…

We express notions of K-stability of polarized spherical varieties in terms of combinatorial data, vastly generalizing the case of toric varieties. We then provide a combinatorial sufficient condition of G-uniform K-stability by studying…
