Exploring Sasaki metrics in joined manifolds.
The paper examines Sasaki-Ricci solitons and their transverse rigidity properties.
Negative curvature proven in Sasaki manifold space completion.
We consider the stability of Sasaki-extremal metrics under deformations of the complex structure on the Reeb foliation. Given such a deformation preserving the action of a compact subgroup of the automorphism group of a Sasaki-extremal structure, a sufficient condition is given involving the nondegeneracy of the relati…
A series of examples of toric Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifolds is constructed. These are submanifolds of toric 3-Sasaki 7-manifolds and such a Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifold corresponds uniquely to a toric 3-Sasaki 7-manifold. This produces examples of quasi-regular Sasaki-Einstein structures on every #k(S^2 xS^3), for k odd. T…

The paper explores existence and non-existence of constant scalar curvature and extremal Sasaki metrics.
Let be a contractible homogeneous Sasaki manifold. A compact locally homogeneous aspherical Sasaki manifold is by definition a quotient of by a discrete uniform subgroup . We show that a compact locally homogeneous aspherical Sasaki manifold is always quasi-regular, that is, $…
Study of Sasaki groups vs Kähler groups, showing distinct behaviors.
In this paper we give a diameter bound for Sasaki manifolds with positive transverse Ricci curvature. As an application, we obtain the uniqueness of Sasaki-Einstein metrics on compact Sasaki manifolds modulo the action of the identity component of the automorphism group for the transverse holomorphic structure.
The paper introduces twins in Kähler and Sasaki geometry, generalizing known concepts.
In this paper, we introduce a class of Sasaki manifolds with a reductive -group action, called -Sasaki manifolds. By reducing K-energy to a functional defined on a class of convex functions on a moment polytope, we give a criterion for the properness of K-energy. In particular, we deduce a sufficient and necessar…
We introduce a holomorphic sheaf E on a Sasaki manifold and study two new notions of stability for E along the Sasaki-Ricci flow related to the `jumping up' of the number of global holomorphic sections of E at infinity. First, we show that if the Mabuchi K-energy is bounded below, the transverse Riemann tensor is bound…
Given a Sasaki manifold S, we prove the Sasaki-Ricci flow converges exponentially fast to a Sasaki-Einstein metric if one exists, provided the automorphism group of the transverse holomorphic structure is trivial.
We prove some structure results for \emph{transverse reducible} Sasaki manifolds. In particular, we show Sasaki manifolds with positive Ricci curvature is transversely irreducible, and so there is no join (product) construction for irregular Sasaki-Einstein manifolds, as opposed to the quasi-regular case done by Wang-Z…

The paper proves the existence of Sasaki-Einstein metrics on specific Sasakian manifolds.
The paper constructs Einstein Sasaki metrics on solvable Lie groups.
We describe a general procedure for constructing new Sasaki metrics of constant scalar curvature from old ones. Explicitly, we begin with a regular Sasaki metric of constant scalar curvature on a 2n+1-dimensional compact manifold M and construct a sequence, depending on four integer parameters, of rays of constant scal…
We show that the Einstein-Hilbert functional, as a functional on the space of Reeb vector fields, detects the vanishing Sasaki-Futaki invariant. In particular, this provides an obstruction to the existence of a constant scalar curvature Sasakian metric. As an application we prove that K-semistable polarized Sasaki mani…
New examples show Sasaki manifolds without extremal metrics.
We introduce and study the notion of Sasaki--Weyl manifold, which is a natural generalization of the notion of Sasaki manifold. We construct a reduction of Sasaki--Weyl manifolds and we show that it commutes with several reductions already existing in the literature.
By combining the join construction from Sasakian geometry with the Hamiltonian 2-form construction from Kähler geometry, we recover Sasaki-Einstein metrics discovered by physicists. Our geometrical approach allows us to give an algorithm for computing the topology of these Sasaki-Einstein manifolds. In particular, we e…
The paper studies para-Sasaki-like manifolds with a new metric connection.
We give a survey of our recent work describing a method which combines the Sasaki join construction with the admissible Kähler construction of to obtain new extremal and new constant scalar curvature Sasaki metrics, including Sasaki-Einstein metrics. The constant scalar curvature Sasaki metrics also provide explicit so…
In [11] it was proved that, given a compact toric Sasaki manifold of positive basic first Chern class and trivial first Chern class of the contact bundle, one can find a deformed Sasaki structure on which a Sasaki-Einstein metric exists. In the present paper we first prove the uniqueness of such Einstein metrics on com…
We define K-stability of a polarized Sasakian manifold relative to a maximal torus of automorphisms. The existence of a Sasaki-extremal metric in the polarization is shown to imply that the polarization is K-semistable. Computing this invariant for the deformation to the normal cone gives an extention of the Lichnerowi…
Study pseudo-Riemannian Sasaki metrics on solvable Lie groups.
We give a correspondence between toric 3-Sasaki 7-manifolds S and certain toric Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifolds M. These 5-manifolds are all diffeomorphic to k#(S^2\times S^3), where k=2b_2(S)+1, and are given by a pencil of Sasaki embeddings of M in S and are given concretely by the zero set of a component of the 3-Sasaki…
In this paper we study compact Sasaki manifolds in view of transverse Kähler geometry and extend some results in Kähler geometry to Sasaki manifolds. In particular we define integral invariants which obstruct the existence of transverse Kähler metric with harmonic Chern forms. The integral invariant for the first…
We show that on a Sasakian 3-sphere the Sasaki-Ricci flow initiating from a Sasakian metric of positive transverse scalar curvature converges to a gradient Sasaki- Ricci soliton. We also show the existence and uniqueness of gradient Sasaki-Ricci soliton on each Sasakian 3-sphere.

Study shows Sasaki solitons with harmonic Weyl tensor are spheres.
New Sasaki-Einstein 7-manifolds found, including rational homology 7-spheres and connected sums.
The study classifies homogeneous Sasaki manifolds over quaternionic Kähler spaces.
We classify simply connected compact Sasaki manifolds of dimension with positive transverse bisectional curvature. In particular, the Kähler cone corresponding to such manifolds must be bi-holomorphic to $\C^{n+1}\backslash \{0\}$. As an application we recover the Mori-Siu-Yau theorem on the Frankel conjecture a…
It is well known that if the dimension of the Sasaki cone is greater than one, then all Sasakian structures are either positive or indefinite. We discuss the phenomenon of type changing within a fixed Sasaki cone. Assuming henceforth that the dimension of the Sasaki cone is greater than one, there are three possibiliti…
We extend profound results in pluripotential theory on Kahler manifolds to Sasaki setting via its transverse Kahler structure. As in Kahler case, these results form a very important piece to solve the existence of Sasaki metrics with constant scalar curvature (cscs) in terms of properness of K-energy. One main result i…

New Sasaki structures identified by Hodge numbers in odd dimensions.
We study (transverse) scalar curvature type equation on compact Sasaki manifolds, in view of recent breakthrough of Chen-Cheng \cite{CC1, CC2, CC3} on existence of Kähler metrics with constant scalar curvature (csck) on compact Kähler manifolds. Following their strategy, we prove that given a Sasaki structure (with Ree…
This article is an overview of some of the remarkable progress that has been made in Sasaki-Einstein geometry over the last decade, which includes a number of new methods of constructing Sasaki-Einstein manifolds and obstructions.
We establish an equivalence between conformally Einstein--Maxwell Kahler 4-manifolds (recently studied in many works) and extremal Kahler 4-manifolds (in the sense of Calabi) with nowhere vanishing scalar curvature. The corresponding pairs of Kahler metrics arise as transversal Kahler structures of Sasaki metrics compa…
