On the Critical Points of the E_k Functionals in Kahler Geometry

Differential Geometry 2008-06-02 v2

Abstract

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.
