The logarithmic Chow semistability is a notion of Geometric Invariant Theory for the pair consists of varieties and its divisors. In this paper we introduce a obstruction of semistability for polarized toric manifolds and its toric divisors. As its application, we show the implication from the asymptotic log Chow semis…

Odaka and Wang proved the intersection formula for the Donaldson-Futaki invariant. In this paper, we generalize this result for the higher Futaki invariants which are obstructions to asymptotic Chow semistability.

Alternative proof of semipositivity and nefness for K-semistable log-Fano pairs.

Chow stability is one notion of Mumford's Geometric Invariant Theory for studying the moduli space of polarized varieties. Kapranov, Sturmfels and Zelevinsky detected that Chow stability of polarized toric varieties is determined by its inherent {\it secondary polytope}, which is a polytope whose vertices correspond to…

The paper defines and proves conditions for numerical semistability of smooth toric varieties.

Let Δ\subset \mathbb{R}^n be an n-dimensional Delzant polytope. It is well-known that there exist the n-dimensional compact toric manifold X_Δand the very ample (\mathbb{C}^\times)^n-equivariant line bundle L_Δon X_Δassociated with Δ. In the present paper, we show that if (X_Δ,L_Δ^i) is Chow semistable then the sum of …

Let $Δ\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be an $n$-dimensional integral Delzant polytope. It is well-known that there exist the $n$-dimensional compact toric manifold $X_Δ$ and the very ample $(\mathbb{C}^\times)^n$-equivariant line bundle $L_Δ$ on $X_Δ$ associated with $Δ$. In the present paper, we give a necessary and sufficient …

Uniformly K-stable toric varieties are asymptotically Chow stable if their Futaki-Ono invariant vanishes.

We define a quantisation of the J-flow over a projective complex manifold. As corollaries, we obtain new proofs of uniqueness of critical points of the J-flow and that these critical points achieve the absolute minimum of an associated energy functional. We show that the existence of a critical point of the J-flow impl…

In this paper, we consider an obstruction to asymptotic Chow-semistability of a polarized Kaehler algebraic manifold. Even when a linear algebraic group of positive dimension acts nontrivially and holomorphically on a polarized Kaehler algebraic manifold with constant scalar curvature, the vanishing of the obstruction …

In this paper, we prove that a Gorenstein toric Fano variety $(X, -K_{X})$ is asymptotically Chow semistable then it is Ding polystable with respect to toric test configurations (Theorem 1.3). This extends the known result obtained by others (Theorem 1.2) to the case where $X$ admits Gorenstein singularity. We also sho…

We provide examples of families of (log) smooth canonically polarized varieties, including smooth weighted pointed curves and smooth hypersurfaces in $P^3$ with large degree such that the Chow semistable limits under distinct pluricanonical embeddings do not stabilize.

The paper characterizes complex projective spaces using Ehrhart polynomials.

We study the Kahler-Ricci flow on Fano manifolds. We show that if the curvature is bounded along the flow and if the manifold is K-polystable and asymptotically Chow semistable, then the flow converges exponentially fast to a Kahler-Einstein metric.

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. These invariants are calculated in two special cases. The first is a projective …

We study algebro-geometric consequences of the quantised extremal Kähler metrics, introduced in the previous work of the author. We prove that the existence of quantised extremal metrics implies weak relative Chow polystability. As a consequence, we obtain asymptotic weak relative Chow polystability and $K$-semistabili…

Given a polarized manifold there are obstructions for asymptotic Chow semistability described as integral invariants. One of them is an obstruction to the existence for the first Chern class of the polarization to admit a constant scalar curvature Kähler (cscK) metric. A natural question is whether or not the other obs…

We make a systematic study of the Hilbert-Mumford criterion for different notions of stability for polarised algebraic varieties $(X,L)$; in particular for K- and Chow stability. For each type of stability this leads to a concept of slope $μ$ for varieties and their subschemes; if $(X,L)$ is semistable then $μ(Z)\leμ(X…

Solves smoothing problem in Chow's connectivity theorem.

Paper proves Chow stability implies balanced embedding.

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 give examples for which it is not asymptotically Chow stable.

This paper studies the canonical Chow quotient of a smooth projective variety by a reductive algebraic group. The main purpose is to give some topological interpretations and characterization of Chow quotient which have the advantage to be more intuitive and geometric. This is to be done over the field of complex numbe…

The paper derives a formula for Chow weights of toric blow-ups.

Groups with semistable peripheral subgroups are semistable.

The paper explores maximal destabilizers for both K-stability and Chow-stability in unstable situations.

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 taking $T$ to be trivial, we see that asymptotic Chow-stability follows from stron…

Characterizes K-semistability for log Fano cone singularities.

A finitely presented group is semistable at infinity if all proper rays in the Cayley 2-complex are properly homotopic. A long standing open question asks whether all finitely presented groups are semistable at infinity. This article provides a brief introduction to the notion of semistability at infinity in geometric …

In this note, we shall show that the Chow-stability and the Hilbert-stability in GIT asymptotically coincide.

The degree-$d$ Chow parameters of a Boolean function $f: \{-1,1\}^n \to \mathbb{R}$ are its degree at most $d$ Fourier coefficients. It is well-known that degree-$d$ Chow parameters uniquely characterize degree-$d$ polynomial threshold functions (PTFs) within the space of all bounded functions. In this paper, we prove …

Study shows volume limit for K-semistable Fano manifolds.

We introduce a notion of K-semistability for Sasakian manifolds. This extends to the irregular case the orbifold K-semistability of Ross-Thomas. Our main result is that a Sasakian manifold with constant scalar curvature is necessarily K-semistable. As an application, we show how one can recover the volume minimization …

We prove that the existence of extremal metrics implies asymptotically relative Chow stability. An application of this is the uniqueness, up to automorphisms, of extremal metrics in any polarization.

We study the basic properties of Higgs sheaves over compact Kähler manifolds and we establish some results concerning the notion of semistability; in particular, we show that any extension of semistable Higgs sheaves with equal slopes is semistable. Then, we use the flattening theorem to construct a regularization of a…

Let X be a smooth, linearly normal algebraic variety. It is shown that the Mabuchi energy of X restricted to the Bergman metrics is completely determined by the X-hyperdiscriminant of format (n-1) and the Chow form of X. As a corollary it is shown that the Mabuchi energy is bounded from below for all degenerations in G…

No semistability found for Calabi-Yau metrics near cones.

We generalize the Hitchin-Kobayashi correspondence between semistability and the existence of approximate Hermitian-Yang-Mills structures to the case of principal Higgs bundles. We prove that a principal Higgs bundle on a compact Kaehler manifold, with structure group a connected linear algebraic reductive group, is se…

We consider the problem of modeling discrete-valued vector time series data using extensions of Chow-Liu tree models to capture both dependencies across time and dependencies across variables. Conditional Chow-Liu tree models are introduced, as an extension to standard Chow-Liu trees, for modeling conditional rather th…

An explicit seminorm $||f||_{#}$ on the vector space of Chow vectors of projective varieties is introduced, and shown to be a generalized Mabuchi energy functional for Chow varieties. The singularities of the Chow varieties give rise to currents supported on their singular loci, while the regular parts are shown to rep…

New proof of generalized Chow-Rashevskii theorem for non-linear systems.

We prove that K-polystable log Fano pairs have reductive automorphism groups. In fact, we deduce this statement by establishing more general results concerning the S-completeness and $Θ$-reductivity of the moduli of K-semistable log Fano pairs. Assuming the conjecture that K-semistability is an open condition, we prove…

We show that G-equivariant K-semistability (resp. G-equivariant K-polystability) implies K-semistability (resp. K-polystability) for log Fano pairs when G is a finite group.

We initiate the study of the asymptotic topology of groups that can be realized as fundamental groups of smooth complex projective varieties with holomorphically convex universal covers (these are called here as holomorphically convex groups). We prove the $H_1$-semistability conjecture of Geoghegan for holomorphically…

The paper proves hyperbolic groups are semistable and their boundaries are linearly connected.

In this note, using the recent compactness results of Tian and Chen-Donaldson-Sun, we prove the K-semistable version of Yau-Tian-Donaldson correspondence for Fano manifolds.

Study algebraic invariants from lightning self-attention models.

Let $G$ be a connected reductive affine algebraic group defined over $\mathbb C$, and let $Γ$ be a cocompact lattice in $G$. We prove that any invariant bundle on $G/Γ$ is semistable.

We study the existence of canonical Kähler metrics on the projectivisation of strictly Mumford semistable holomorphic vector bundles over a complex curve. We also provide an algebro-geometric characterization of these metrics.
