We prove a simple, explicit formula for the mass of any asymptotically locally Euclidean (ALE) K\"ahler manifold, assuming only the sort of weak fall-off conditions required for the mass to actually be well-defined. For ALE scalar-flat…
This is a collection of notes on the properties of left-invariant metrics on the eight-dimensional compact Lie group SU(3). Among other topics we investigate the existence of invariant pseudo-Riemannian Einstein metrics on this manifold. We…
We present new non-Ricci-flat Kahler metrics with U(N) and O(N) isometries as target manifolds of superconformally invariant sigma models with an anomalous dimension. They are so-called Ricci solitons, special solutions to a Ricci-flow…
We show that K\"ahler-Einstein metrics with cone singularities along simple normal crossing (SNC) divisors define RCD spaces, both in the compact setting and in certain non-compact cases, thereby producing many examples of Einstein RCD…
Given a compact constant scalar curvature Kaehler orbifold, with nontrivial holomorphic vector fields, whose singularities admit a local ALE Kaehler Ricci-flat resolution, we find sufficient conditions on the position of the singular points…
We show that if a compact connected $n$-dimensional manifold $M$ has a conformal class containing two non-homothetic metrics $g$ and $\tilde g=e^{2\varphi}g$ with non-generic holonomy, then after passing to a finite covering, either $n=4$…
For a k-flat F inside a locally compact CAT(0)-space X, we identify various conditions that ensure that F bounds a (k+1)-dimensional half flat in X. Our conditions are formulated in terms of the ultralimit of X. As applications, we obtain…
When a complex semisimple group $G$ acts holomorphically on a K\"ahler manifold $(X,\omega)$ such that a maximal compact subgroup $K\subset G$ preserves the symplectic form $\omega$, a basic result of symplectic geometry says that the…
We first determine the asymptotic cone of the steady gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton of the Taub-NUT type constructed by Apostolov and Cifarell. Then we study a special case and prove that it is an ALF Calabi-Yau metric in a certain sense.…
In a recent preprint, Chi Li proved that aymptotically conical complex manifolds with regular tangent cone at infinity admit holomorphic compactifications (his result easily extends to the quasiregular case). In this short note, we show…
We construct the normal forms of null-K\"ahler metrics: pseudo-Riemannian metrics admitting a compatible parallel nilpotent endomorphism of the tangent bundle. Such metrics are examples of non-Riemannian holonomy reduction, and (in the…
Let G be a connected complex simple Lie group with maximal compact subgroup U. Let g be the Lie algebra of G, and X = G/U be the associated Riemannian globally symmetric space of type IV. We have constructed three types of arithmetic…
We construct locally homogeneous 6-dimensional nearly K\"ahler manifolds as quotients of homogeneous nearly K\"ahler manifolds $M$ by freely acting finite subgroups of $Aut_0(M)$. We show that non-trivial such groups do only exists if…
We study the collapsing behaviour of Ricci-flat Kahler metrics on a projective Calabi-Yau manifold which admits an abelian fibration, when the volume of the fibers approaches zero. We show that away from the critical locus of the fibration…
We show that the Calabi-Yau metrics with isolated conical singularities of Hein-Sun admit polyhomogeneous expansions near their singularities. Moreover, we show that, under certain generic assumptions, natural families of smooth Calabi-Yau…
Let $M$ be complex projective manifold and $A$ a positive line bundle on it. Assume that a compact and connected Lie group $G$ acts on $M$ in a Hamiltonian and holomorphic manner and that this action linearizes to $A$. Then, there is an…
In this paper we consider left-invariant pseudo-K\"{a}hler structures on six-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras. The explicit expressions of the canonical complex structures are calculated, and the curvature properties of the associated…
We associate (under a minor assumption) to any analytic isolated singularity of dimension $n\geq 2$ the `analytic lattice cohomology' ${\mathbb H}^*_{an}=\oplus_{q\geq 0}{\mathbb H}^q_{an}$. Each ${\mathbb H}^q_{an}$ is a graded ${\mathbb…
In this paper, we prove: 1. There is a one-to-one correspondence between: Hermitian non-K\"ahler ALE gravitational instantons $(M,h)$, and Bach-flat K\"ahler orbifolds $(\widehat{M},\widehat{g})$ of complex dimension 2 with exactly one…
Biquard-Gauduchon have shown that conformally K\"ahler, Ricci-flat, ALF toric metrics on the complement of toric divisors are: the Taub-NUT metric with reversed orientation, in the Kerr-Taub-bolt family or in the Chen-Teo family. The same…
