Paper proves Hamilton-Tian conjecture using partial C0-estimate.

Solves Tian's stabilization problem for toric Fano manifolds.

Estimates Bergman kernel for positive line bundles.

We introduce a new continuity method which provides an alternative way of carrying out the Analytic Minimal Model Program introduced by G. Tian and J. Song and G. Tian. This equation -- unlike the Ricci flow -- has the advantage of having Ricci curvature bounded from below along the deformation, so that the compactness…

Establishes Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for weighted metrics.

In [Cheeger-Tian 2005], Cheeger-Tian proved an $ε$-regularity theorem for $4$-dimensional Einstein manifolds without volume assumption. They conjectured that similar results should hold for critical metrics with constant scalar curvature, shrinking Ricci solitons, Ricci flows in $4$-dimensional manifolds and higher dim…

We establish a parabolic version of Tian's $C^{2,α}$-estimate for conical complex Monge-Ampere equations, which includes conical Kähler-Einstein metrics. Our estimate will complete the proof of the existence of unnormalized conical Kähler-Ricci flow in arXiv:1411.7284.

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 on convergence rate of Bergman metrics on Kähler manifolds.

The paper solves a uniform Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for toric manifolds.

We establish Evans-Krylov estimates for certain nonconvex fully nonlinear elliptic and parabolic equations by exploiting partial Legendre transformations. The equations under consideration arise in part from the study of the "pluriclosed flow" introduced by the first author and Tian

Proves results on K-stability using arcs and Mabuchi functional.

Proves Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for toric manifolds and bundles.

We give a new Tian-Todorov lemma on deformations of CR-structures and use it to reprove the deformation unobstructedness of normal compact strongly pseudoconvex CR-manifold under the assumption of $d'd''$-lemma, more faithfully following Tian-Todorov's approach.

This an announcement for the generalized asymptotic expansion of Tian-Yau-Zeldtich.

Paper confirms Hamilton-Tian conjecture for specific Sasakian manifolds.

Tian's theorem applies to Moishezon spaces with singular metrics.

We explain a characterization of Einstein-Fano manifolds in terms of the lower bound of the density of the volume of the Kähler-Ricci Flow. This is a direct consequence of Perelman's uniform estimate for the Kähler-Ricci Flow and a $C^0$ estimate of Tian and Zhu.

In this paper, we compute the Tian-Zhu invariant on hypersurfaces of complex projective spaces.

We prove that the partial $C^0$-estimate holds for metrics along Aubin's continuity method for finding Kähler-Einstein metrics, confirming a special case of a conjecture due to Tian. We use the method developed in recent work of Chen-Donaldson-Sun on the analogous problem for conical Kähler-Einstein metrics.

Uniform proof of Kähler-Einstein metrics with arbitrary polarizations.

Solves Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for smooth projective varieties.

In this paper, we study the behavior of Bergman kernels along the Kähler Ricci flow on Fano manifolds. We show that the Bergman kernels are equivalent along the Kähler Ricci flow under certain condition on the Ricci curvature of the initial metric. Then, using a recent work of Tian and Zhang, we can solve a conjecture …

We study families of complex Monge-Ampère equations, focusing on the case where the cohomology classes degenerate to a non big class. We establish uniform a priori $L^{\infty}$-estimates for the normalized solutions, generalizing the recent work of S. Kolodziej and G. Tian. This has interesting consequences in the stud…

Effective Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for spherical varieties.

We give a variational proof of a version of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for twisted Kähler-Einstein currents, and use this to express the greatest (twisted) Ricci lower bound in terms of a purely algebro-geometric stability threshold. Our approach does not involve the continuity method or Cheeger-Colding-Tian the…

Counterexample disproves conjectures about log canonical thresholds.

Proves algebraic version of Hamilton-Tian conjecture for log Fano pairs.

We study Tian's $α$-invariant in comparison with the $α_1$-invariant for pairs $(S_d,H)$ consisting of a smooth surface $S_d$ of degree $d$ in the projective three-dimensional space and a hyperplane section $H$. A conjecture of Tian asserts that $α(S_d,H)=α_1(S_d,H)$. We show that this is indeed true for $d=4$ (the res…

The paper studies invariant weighted Bergman metrics on domains.

In this paper, we compute Tian's $α_{m,k}^{K\times K}$-invariant on a polarized $G$-group compactification, where $K$ denotes a maximal compact subgroup of a connected complex reductive group $G$. We prove that Tian's conjecture (see Conjecture 1.1 below) is true for $α_{m,k}^{K\times K}$-invariant on such manifolds wh…

We establish a new partial $C^{0}$-estimate along a continuity path mixed with conic singularities along a simple normal crossing divisor and a positive twisted $(1,1)$-form on Fano manifolds. As an application, this estimate enables us to show the reductivity of the automorphism group of the limit space, which leads t…

Proves Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for cohomogeneity one manifolds.

We provide here a counter-example to the second inequality of Corollary (19.10) in the Clay Institute Monograph by J.Morgan and G.Tian entitled "Ricci Flow and the Poincare Conjecture". We had announced the existence of this counter-example in our paper "Five Gaps in Mathematics", Advanced Non-linear Studies, vol 15, N…

Proves existence of Kähler-Einstein metrics in big cohomology classes.

Well-known conjectures of Tian predict that existence of canonical Kahler metrics should be equivalent to various notions of properness of Mabuchi's K-energy functional. In some instances this has been verified, especially under restrictive assumptions on the automorphism group. We provide counterexamples to the origin…

Research confirms Streets-Tian conjecture for 2-step solvmanifolds.

In this paper is to extend the Cheeger-Colding Theory to the class of conic Kahler-Einstein metrics. This extension provides a technical tool for [LTW] in which we prove a version of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for Fano varieties with certain singularity.

We prove the following result: if a $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano variety is uniformly K-stable, then it admits a Kähler-Einstein metric. We achieve this by modifying Berman-Boucksom-Jonsson's strategy with appropriate perturbative arguments and non-Archimedean estimates. The idea of using the perturbation is motivated by our prev…

The global holomorphic α-invariant introduced by Tian is closely related with the study in the existence of Kahler-Einstein metric. We apply the result of Tian, Lu and Zelditch on polarized Kahler metrics to approximate plurisubharmonic functions and compute the α-invariant of toric Fano manifolds.

This paper constructs and studies the Gromov-Witten invariants and their properties for noncompact geometrically bounded symplectic manifolds. Two localization formulas for GW-invariants are also proposed and proved. As applications we get solutions of the generalized string equation and dilation equation and their var…

In this paper, we generalize Chen-Tian energy functionals to Kähler-Ricci solitons and prove that the properness of these functionals is equivalent to the existence of Kähler-Ricci solitons. We also discuss the equivalence of the lower boundedness of these functionals and their relation with Tian-Zhu's holomorphic inva…

Study proves Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for generalized Kähler-Ricci solitons.

We announce a new proof of the uniform estimate on the curvature of solutions to the Ricci flow on a compact Kähler manifold $M^n$ with positive bisectional curvature. In contrast to the recent work of X. Chen and G. Tian, our proof of the uniform estimate does not rely on the exsitence of Kähler-Einstein metrics on $M…

We prove uniform sup-norm estimates for the Monge-Ampere equation with respect to a family of Kahler metrics which degenerate towards a pull-back of a metric from a lower dimensional manifold. This is then used to show the existence of generalized Kahler-Einstein metrics as the limits of the Kahler-Ricci flow for some …
