In this paper, we study the Nakano-positivity and dual-Nakano-positivity of certain adjoint vector bundles associated to ample vector bundles. As applications, we get new vanishing theorems about ample vector bundles. For example, we prove that if $E$ is an ample vector bundle over a compact Kähler manifold $X$, $S^kE\…

We prove that the $L^2$ metric on the direct image of an adjoint positive line bundle by a locally trivial submersion between projective manifolds is Nakano positive, under the assumption that the typical fiber has zero first Betti number. As a consequence, we get that the symmetric powers of an ample vector bundle ten…

We study the cohomology with high tensor powers of Nakano $q$-semipositive line bundles on complex manifolds. We obtain the asymptotic estimates for the dimension of cohomology with high tensor powers of semipositive line bundles over q-convex manifolds and various possibly non-compact complex manifolds, in which the o…

In this paper, we investigate the geometry of the moduli space of curves by using the curvature properties of direct image sheaves of vector bundles. We show that the moduli space $(M_g, ω_{WP})$ of curves with genus $g>1$ has dual-Nakano negative and semi-Nakano-negative curvature, and in particular, it has non-positi…

We study the positivity properties of Hermitian (or even Finsler) holomorphic vector bundles in terms of $L^p$-estimates of $\bar\partial$ and $L^p$-extensions of holomorphic objects. To this end, we introduce four conditions, called the optimal $L^p$-estimate condition, the multiple coarse $L^p$-estimate condition, th…

For one-parameter degenerations of compact Kähler manifolds, we determine the asymptotic behavior of the first Chern form of the direct image of a Nakano semi-positive vector bundle twisted by the relative canonical bundle, when the direct image is equipped with the L2-metric.

The paper develops harmonic theory on vector bundles with singular metrics and extends results from complex geometry.

This paper is a sequel to \cite{Berndtsson}. In that paper we studied the vector bundle associated to the direct image of the relative canonical bundle of a smooth Kähler morphism, twisted with a semipositive line bundle. We proved that the curvature of a such vector bundles is always semipositive (in the sense of Naka…

The paper defines positivity for singular metrics on vector bundles and proves related theorems.

Given a vector bundle of arbitrary rank with ample determinant line bundle on a projective manifold, we propose a new elliptic system of differential equations of Hermitian-Yang-Mills type for the curvature tensor. The system is designed so that solutions provide Hermitian metrics with positive curvature in the sense o…

For proper surjective holomorphic maps from K"ahler manifolds to analytic spaces, we give a decomposition theorem for the cohomology groups of the canonical bundle twisted by Nakano semi-positive vector bundles by means of the higher direct image sheaves, by using the theory of harmonic integrals developed by Takegoshi…

New characterization of Riemannian metric positivity and $L^2$ estimates for $d$ operator.

The purpose of this paper is to prove that the Hermitian Curvature Flow (HCF) on an Hermitian manifold $(M,g,J)$ preserves many natural curvature positivity conditions. Following Wilking, for an $Ad\,{GL(T^{1,0}M)}$-invariant subset $S\subset End(T^{1,0}M)$ and a ncie function $F\colon End(T^{1,0}M)\to\mathbb R$ we con…

We prove the classical Nakano vanishing theorem with Hörmander $L^2$-estimates on a compact Kähler manifold using Siu's so called $\partial\dbar$-Bochner-Kodaira method, thereby avoiding the Kähler identities completely. We then introduce singular hermitian metrics on holomorphic vector bundles, and proceed to prove a …

Study complex structures with perturbed differential operators to compute curvature-like operators and obtain vanishing results.

Deformations of the Reeb flow of a Sasakian manifold as transversely Kähler flows may not admit compatible Sasakian metrics anymore. We show that the triviality of the (0,2)-component of the basic Euler class characterizes the existence of compatible Sasakian metrics for given small deformations of the Reeb flow as tra…

We study a singular Hermitian metric of a vector bundle. First, we prove the sheaf of locally square integrable holomorphic sections of a vector bundle with a singular Hermitian metric, which is a higher rank analogy of a multiplier ideal sheaf, is coherent under some assumptions. Second, we prove a Nadel-Nakano type v…

The paper studies curvature properties of direct image bundles.

We introduce and study a notion of singular hermitian metrics on holomorphic vector bundles, following Berndtsson and P{ă}un. We define what it means for such a metric to be curved in the sense of Griffiths and investigate the assumptions needed in order to locally define the cuvature $Θ^h$ as a matrix of currents. We …

Given a holomorphic family $f:\mathcal{X} \to S$ of compact complex manifolds of dimension $n$ and a relatively ample line bundle $L\to \mathcal{X}$, the higher direct images $R^{n-p}f_*Ω^p_{\mathcal{X}/S}(L)$ carry a natural hermitian metric. We give an explicit formula for the curvature tensor of these direct images.…

We study the rate of growth of normalized Hodge numbers along a tower of abelian covers of a smooth projective variety with semismall Albanese map. These bounds are in some cases optimal. Moreover, we compute the $L^2$-Betti numbers of irregular varieties that satisfy the weak generic Nakano vanishing theorem e.g., var…

Study extends complex sections on non-holomorphic objects on Kähler manifolds.

Given an effectively parameterized family $f:X\to S$ of canonically polarized manifolds, the Kähler-Einstein metrics on the fibers induce a hermitian metric on the relative canonical bundle $K_{X/S}$. We use a global elliptic equation to show that this metric is strictly positive everywhere and give estimates. The dire…

We show vanishing theorems of $L^2$-cohomology groups of Kodaira-Nakano type on complete Hessian manifolds. We obtain further vanishing theorems of $L^2$-cohomology groups $L^2H^{p,q}(Ω)$ on a regular convex cone $Ω$ with the Cheng-Yau metric for $p>q$.

Motivated by our conjecture of an earlier work predicting the degeneration at the second page of the Frölicher spectral sequence of any compact complex manifold supporting an SKT metric $ω$ (i.e. such that $\partial\bar\partialω=0$), we prove degeneration at $E_2$ whenever the manifold admits a Hermitian metric whose t…

Local vanishing theorems for complex spaces with smooth boundaries.

Given a smooth positive measure $μ$ on a complete Hermitian manifold with Ricci curvature bounded from below, we prove a pointwise Agmon-type bound for the corresponding Bergman kernel, under rather general conditions involving the coercivity of an associated complex Laplacian on $(0,1)$-forms.
