We describe and construct here pseudo-Hermitian structures $θ$ without torsion (i.e. with transversal symmetry) whose Webster-Ricci curvature tensor is a constant multiple of the exterior differential $dθ$. We call these structures pseudo-Hermitian Einstein and our result states that they all can be derived locally fro…

We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition of existence of a K{ä}hler-Einstein metric on a $G\times G$-equivariant Fano compactification of a complex connected reductive group $G$ in terms of the associated polytope. This condition is not equivalent to the vanishing of the Futaki invariant. The proof relies on the …

The paper studies Ricci curvature on Kähler-Ricci flow.

Given a convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with the barycenter at the origin we consider the corresponding K{ä}hler-Einstein equation $e^{-Φ} = \det D^2 Φ$. If $K$ is a simplex, then the Ricci tensor of the Hessian metric $D^2 Φ$ is constant and equals $\frac{n-1}{4(n+1)}$. We conjecture that the Ricci tensor of $D^2…

Continuity of complex Monge-Ampère potentials on Kähler manifolds.

In this paper, we show that any compact K$ä$hler manifold homotopic to a compact Riemannian manifold with negative sectional curvature admits a K$ä$hler-Einstein metric of general type. Moreover, we prove that, on a compact symplectic manifold $X$ homotopic to a compact Riemannian manifold with negative sectional curva…

We prove that a compact stratied space satises the Riemannian curvature-dimension condition RCD(K, N) if and only if its Ricci tensor is bounded below by K $\in$ R on the regular set, the cone angle along the stratum of codimension two is smaller than or equal to 2$π$ and its dimension is at most equal to N. This gives…

Paper discusses conditions for deforming coupled Kähler-Einstein metrics.

Motivated by the study of coupled Kähler-Einstein metrics by Hultgren and Witt Nyström and coupled Kähler-Ricci solitons by Hultgren, we study in this paper coupled Sasaki-Einstein metrics and coupled Sasaki-Ricci solitons. We first show an isomorphism between the Lie algebra of all transverse holomorphic vector fields…

New examples found of complex manifolds with special metrics.

We introduce the coupled Ricci-Calabi functional and the coupled H-functional which measure how far from a coupled Kähler-Einstein metric in the sense of Hultgren-Witt Nyström. We first give corresponding moment weight type inequalities which estimate each functional in terms of algebraic invariants. Secondly, we give …

Solves modified conjecture for Fano manifolds using Ding stability.

We propose new types of canonical metrics on Kähler manifolds, called coupled Kähler-Einstein metrics, generalizing Kähler-Einstein metrics. We prove existence and uniqueness results in the cases when the canonical bundle is ample and when the manifold is Kähler-Einstein Fano. In the Fano case we also prove that existe…

We obtain a residue formula for an obstruction to the existence of coupled Kähler-Einstein metrics described by Futaki-Zhang. We apply it to an example studied separately by Futaki and Hultgren which is a toric Fano manifold with reductive automorphism, does not admit a Kähler-Einstein metric but still admits coupled K…

Study finds critical points of volume functionals on Sasaki manifolds.

In this paper, we consider half-flat $SU(3)$-structures and the subclasses of coupled and double structures. In the general case we show that the intrinsic torsion form $w_1^-$ is constant in each of the two subclasses. We then consider the problem of finding half-flat structures inducing Einstein metrics on homogeneou…

Study lift metrics and connections on tangent bundles of Riemannian manifolds.

In this paper, we introduce the "coupled Ricci iteration", a dynamical system related to the Ricci operator and twisted Kähler-Einstein metrics as an approach to the study of coupled Kähler-Einstein (CKE) metrics. For negative first Chern class, we prove the smooth convergence of the iteration. For positive first Chern…

Study Kähler metrics with constant scalar curvature using coupled equations.

We provide a moment map interpretation for the coupled Kähler-Einstein equations introduced by Hultgren and Witt Nyström, and in the process introduce a more general system of equations, which we call coupled cscK equations. A differentio-geometric formulation of the corresponding Futaki invariant is obtained and a not…

Equations link metrics with tensors, revealing curvature constraints.

Survey on Kähler-Einstein and weighted solitons on Fano manifolds.

We provide non trivial examples of solutions to the system of coupled equations introduced by M. García-Fernández for the uniformization problem of a triple $(M,L,E)$ where $E$ is a holomorphic vector bundle over a polarized complex manifold $(M,L)$, generalizing the notions of both constant scalar curvature Kähler met…

5D SCFTs can have confining vacua with strings and unbroken symmetries.

Study on Kähler metrics on ruled surfaces, proving existence and non-existence.

In this paper we prove the existence of coupled Kähler-Einstein metrics on complex manifolds whose canonical bundle is ample. These metrics were introduced and their existence in the said case was proven by Hultgren and Nyström using calculus of variations. We prove the result using the method of continuity. In the pro…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of solutions to a general system of complex Monge-Ampère equations on Fano horosymmetric manifolds. In particular, we get necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of coupled Kähler-Ricci solitons, Mabuchi metrics and twisted Kähler-Einstein metrics in t…

We give a method to construct Calabi-Yau metrics on G-invariant vector bundles over Kahler coset spaces G/H using supersymmetric nonlinear realizations with matter coupling. As a concrete example we discuss the CP^N model coupled with matter. The canonical line bundle is reproduced by the singlet matter and the cotange…

We study the quantization of coupled Kähler-Einstein (CKE) metrics, namely we approximate CKE metrics by means of the canonical Bergman metrics, so called the ``balanced metrics''. We prove the existence and weak convergence of balanced metrics for the negative first Chern class, while for the positive first Chern clas…

Paper solves vortex equations on complex surfaces, linking to Higgs bundle stability.

New stability criterion for Fano manifolds using anticanonically balanced metrics.

New equations connect instantons, spinors, and 3-forms in 6 and 7 dimensions.

We study partition functions of random Bergman metrics, with the actions defined by a class of geometric functionals known as `stability functions'. We introduce a new stability invariant - the critical value of the coupling constant - defined as the minimal coupling constant for which the partition function converges.…

We introduce a notion of Gieseker stability for a filtered holomorphic vector bundle $F$ over a projective manifold. We relate it to an analytic condition in terms of hermitian metrics on $F$ coming from a construction of the Geometric Invariant Theory (G.I.T). These metrics are balanced in the sense of S.K. Donaldson.…

Develops moment map theory for twisted scalar curvature in Kähler geometry.

We study equations on a principal bundle over a compact complex manifold coupling a connection on the bundle with a Kahler structure on the base. These equations generalize the conditions of constant scalar curvature for a Kahler metric and Hermite-Yang-Mills for a connection. We provide a moment map interpretation of …

Study of dHYM connections on ruled surfaces with variable background metrics.

The paper characterizes metallic pseudo-Riemannian manifolds using conjugate connections and tensor structures.

We consider four extended Ricci flow systems---that is, Ricci flow coupled with other geometric flows---and prove dynamical stability of certain classes of stationary solutions of these flows. The systems include Ricci flow coupled with harmonic map flow (studied abstractly and in the context of Ricci flow on warped pr…

The paper introduces new equations in Kähler geometry and proves their solutions and convexity.

Novel framework detects lead-lag relationships in Chinese A-share market.

At critical coupling, the interactions of Ginzburg-Landau vortices are determined by the metric on the moduli space of static solutions. The asymptotic form of the metric for two well separated vortices is shown here to be expressible in terms of a Bessel function. A straightforward extension gives the metric for N vor…

We prove a necessary and sufficient condition in terms of the barycenters of a collection of polytopes for existence of coupled Kähler-Einstein metrics on toric Fano manifolds. This confirms the toric case of a coupled version of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture. We also obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for…

Alternative construction of quasi-Fuchsian flows using vortex equations.

A relation between gravity on Poisson manifolds proposed in arXiv:1508.05706 and Einstein gravity is investigated. The compatibility of the Poisson and Riemann structures defines a unique connection, the contravariant Levi-Civita connection, and leads to the idea of the contravariant gravity. The Einstein-Hilbert-type …

We study equations on a principal bundle over a compact complex manifold coupling connections on the bundle with Kähler structures in the base. These equations generalize the conditions of constant scalar curvature for a Kähler metric and Hermite-Yang-Mills for a connection. We provide a moment map interpretation of th…

We develop a stochastic target representation for Ricci flow and normalized Ricci flow on smooth, compact surfaces, analogous to Soner and Touzi's representation of mean curvature flow. We prove a verification/uniqueness theorem, and then consider geometric consequences of this stochastic representation. Based on this …
