In this paper, we study the boundary behavior of the negatively curved Kähler-Einstein metric attached to a log canonical pair $(X,D)$ such that $K_X+D$ is ample. In the case where $X$ is smooth and $D$ has simple normal crossings support (but possibly negative coefficients), we provide a very precise estimate on the potential of the KE metric near the boundary $D$. In the more general singular case ($D$ being assumed effective though), we show that the KE metric has mixed cone and cusp singularities near $D$ on the snc locus of the pair. As a corollary, we derive the behavior in codimension one of the KE metric of a stable variety.
The object of the present paper is to study some properties of para-K$ä$hler manifold whose metric is conformal Einstein soliton. We have studied some certain curvature properties of para-K$ä$hler manifold admitting conformal Einstein soliton.
We introduce a class of almost homogeneous varieties contained in the class of spherical varieties and containing horospherical varieties as well as complete symmetric varieties. We develop K{ä}hler geometry on these varieties, with applications to canonical metrics in mind, as a generalization of the Guillemin-Abreu-Donaldson geometry of toric varieties. Namely we associate convex functions with hermitian metrics on line bundles, and express the curvature form in terms of this function, as well as the corresponding Monge-Amp{è}re volume form and scalar curvature. We then provide an expression…
On asymptotically complex hyperbolic (ACH) Einstein manifolds, we consider a certain variational problem for almost complex structures compatible with the metric, for which the linearized Euler-Lagrange equation at Kähler-Einstein structures is given by the Dolbeault Laplacian acting on $(0,1)$-forms with values in the holomorphic tangent bundle. A deformation result of Einstein ACH metrics associated with critical almost complex structures for this variational problem is given. It is also shown that the asymptotic expansion of a critical almost complex structure is determined by the induced (…
In this short note we are concerned with the Kahler-Einstein metrics near cone type log canonical singularities. By two different approaches, we construct a complete Kahler-Einstein metric with negative scalar curvature in a neighborhood of the cone over a Calabi-Yau manifold, which provides a local model for the future study of the global Kahler-Einstein metrics on singular varieties. In the first approach, we show that the singularity is uniformized by a complex ball and hence the induced metric from the Bergman metric of the ball is a desired one. In the second approach, we obtain a complet…
In this note we show that the bi-invariant Einstein metric on the compact Lie group $G_{2}$ is dynamically unstable as a fixed point of the Ricci flow. This completes the stability analysis for the bi-invariant metrics on the compact, connected, simple Lie groups. Interestingly, $G_{2}$ is the only unstable exceptional group.
We will show that a universal covering of a compact Kähler manifold with ample canonical bundle is the unit ball if it admits a global potential function of the Kähler-Einstein metric whose gradient length is a minimal constant. As an application, we will extend the Wong-Rosay theorem to a complex manifold without boundary.
We construct Kahler-Einstein metrics with negative scalar curvature near an isolated log canonical (non-log terminal) singularity. Such metrics are complete near the singularity if the underlying space has complex dimension 2 or if the singularity is smoothable. In complex dimension 2, we show that any complete Kahler-Einstein metric of negative scalar curvature near an isolated log canonical (non-log terminal) singularity is smoothly asymptotically close to one of the model metrics constructed by Kobayashi and Nakamura arising from hyperbolic geometry.
We classify the effective and transitive actions of a Lie group $G$ on an n-dimensional non-degenerate hyperboloid (also called real pseudo-hyperbolic space), under the assumption that $G$ is a closed, connected Lie subgroup of $SO_0(n-r,r+1)$, the connected component of the indefinite special orthogonal group. Assuming additionally that $G$ acts completely reducible on $\mathbb R^{n+1}$, we also obtain that any $G$-homogeneous Einstein pseudo-Riemannian metric on a real, complex or quaternionic pseudo-hyperbolic space, or on a para-complex or para-quaternionic projective space is homothetic t…
Let $X$ be a $\mathbb Q$-Fano variety admitting a Kähler-Einstein metric. We prove that up to a finite quasi-étale cover, $X$ splits isometrically as a product of Kähler-Einstein $\mathbb Q$-Fano varieties whose tangent sheaf is stable with respect to the anticanonical polarization. This relies among other things on a very general splitting theorem for algebraically integrable foliations. We also prove that the canonical extension of $T_X$ by $\mathscr O_X$ is semistable with respect to the anticanonical polarization.
Let $(X, L)$ be a polarized Calabi Yau variety (or canonical polarized variety) with crepant singularity. Suppose $ω_{KE} \in c_1(L)$ (or $ω_{KE} \in c_1(K_X)$) is the unique Ricci flat current (or Kahler Einstein current with negative scalar curvature) with local bounded potential constructed in [18], we show that the local tangent at any point $p \in X$ of metric $ω_{KE}$ is unique
Conformally Kähler, Einstein-Maxwell metrics and $f$-extremal metrics are generalization of canonical metrics in Kähler geometry. We introduce uniform K-stability for toric Kähler manifolds, and show that uniform K-stability is necessary condition for the existence of $f$-extremal metrics on toric manifolds. Furthermore, we show that uniform K-stability is equivalent to properness of relative K-energy.
While the existence of a unique Kähler-Einstein metric on a canonically polarized manifold X was established by Aubin and Yau already in the 70s there are only a few explicit formulas available. In previous work a probabilistic construction of the Kähler-Einstein metric was introduced - involving canonical random point processes on X - which yields canonical approximations of the Kähler-Einstein metric, expressed as explicit period integrals over a large number of products of X. Here it is shown that the conjectural extension to the case when X is a Fano variety suggests a zero-free property o…
We consider supergravity in five-dimensional Anti-De Sitter space $AdS_{5}$ with minimal supersymmetry, encoded by a Sasaki-Einstein metric on a five-dimensional compact manifold $M$. Our main result reveals how the Sasaki-Einstein metric emerges from a canonical state in the dual CFT, defined by a superconformal gauge theory in four dimensional Minkowski space $\mathbb{R}^{3,1}$in the t'Hooft limit where the rank $N$ tends to infinity. We obtain explicit finite $N-$approximations to the Sasaki-Einstein metric, expressed in terms of a canonical (i.e. background free) BPS-state on the gauge the…
