New groups contactomorphic to stratified ones found.

It is conjectured that to test the K-polystability of a polarised variety it is enough to consider test-configurations which are equivariant with respect to a torus in the automorphism group. We prove partial results towards this conjecture. We also show that it would give a new proof of the K-polystability of constant…

Equivalence proven between divisorial stability and quotient log divisorial stability.

The study finds resonance points in polarised curves with polynomial conserved quantities.

Proves constant scalar curvature Kähler metrics are very general.

We provide a sufficient condition for polarisations of Fano varieties to be K-stable in terms of Tian's alpha invariant, which uses the log canonical threshold to measure singularities of divisors in the linear system associated to the polarisation. This generalises a result of Odaka-Sano in the anti-canonically polari…

Introduces stability conditions for polarized varieties, linking to K-stability.

New space for polarized manifolds with constant curvature metrics.

We identify the difference between the CM polarisation and the Chow polarisation on the ``Hilbert scheme''. As a consequence, we give a numerical criterion for the CM stability as in Mumfords' G.I.T.. Also, we write down an explicit formula for the generalised futaki invariant interms of weights and multiplicities of t…

We prove that polarised manifolds that admit a constant scalar curvature Kähler (cscK) metric satisfy a condition we call slope semistability. That is, we define the slope $μ$ for a projective manifold and for each of its subschemes, and show that if $X$ is cscK then $μ(Z)\leμ(X)$ for all subschemes $Z$. This gives man…

Proves a conjecture for Calabi-Yau manifolds.

In this thesis we study the relationship between the existence of canonical metrics on a complex manifold and stability in the sense of geometric invariant theory. We introduce a modification of K-stability of a polarised variety which we conjecture to be equivalent to the existence of an extremal metric in the polaris…

The paper studies deformations of Calabi-Yau manifolds using Gauduchon metrics.

Given a compact complex $n$-fold $X$ satisfying the $\partial\bar\partial$-lemma and supposed to have a trivial canonical bundle $K_X$ and to admit a balanced (=semi-Kähler) Hermitian metric $ω$, we introduce the concept of deformations of $X$ that are {\bf co-polarised} by the balanced class $[ω^{n-1}]\in H^{n-1,\,n-1…

We study the K-stability of a polarised variety with non-reductive automorphism group. We associate a canonical filtration of the co-ordinate ring to each variety of this kind, which destabilises the variety in several examples which we compute. We conjecture this holds in general. This is an algebro-geometric analogue…

Being inspired by Ross' construction of unstable products of certain smooth curves, we show that the product $C\times C$ of every smooth curve $C$ of genus at least 2 is not slope semistable with respect to certain polarisations. Besides, we produce examples of Kodaira-fibred surfaces of nonzero signature, which are no…

We prove that various GIT semistabilities of polarized varieties imply semi-log-canonicity.

The study connects norms and filtrations on section rings of projective manifolds.

We formulate a notion of stability for maps between polarised varieties which generalises Kontsevich's definition when the domain is a curve and Tian-Donaldson's definition of K-stability when the target is a point. We give some examples, such as Kodaira embeddings and fibrations. We prove the existence of a projective…

We show that if a polarised manifold admits an extremal metric then it is K-polystable relative to a maximal torus of automorphisms.

Develops k-contact geometry theory for field theories.

We prove that constant scalar curvature Kähler (cscK) manifolds with transcendental cohomology class are K-semistable, naturally generalising the situation for polarised manifolds. Relying on a very recent result by R. Berman, T. Darvas and C. Lu regarding properness of the K-energy, it moreover follows that cscK manif…

Study shows Calabi-Yau metrics converge to a specific form under certain conditions.

We define a new notion of "b-stability" for a polarised algebraic variety, adapted to the existence problem for Kahler-Einstein metrics on Fano manifolds.

We show that a polarised manifold with a constant scalar curvature Kähler metric and discrete automorphisms is K-stable. This refines the K-semistability proved by S. K. Donaldson.

The paper uses the technique of finite-dimensional approximation to show that a constant scalr curvature Kahler metric (on a polarised algebraic variety without holomorphic vector fields) minimises the Mabuchi functional.

Quantum strategy optimizes wealth growth in a double-or-nothing game.

In this note we identify the leading terms of the (reduced) K-energy map with a universal linear combination of the principal and subdominant coefficients of the weight of the $mth$ Hilbert point. This shows that the weight $F_{1}(λ;X)$ introduced by Donaldson in [SKD02] is just the weight of the CM-polarisation.The eq…

We obtain a formal obstruction, i.e. a necessary condition for the existence of polarised complex deformations of Kähler-Ricci solitons. This obstruction is expressed in terms of the harmonic part of the variation of the complex structure.

Uniform estimates for Calabi-Yau degenerations proved.

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…

Study moduli space of cscK surfaces around toric ones, introducing foldable surfaces.

Consider a fibred compact Kähler manifold X endowed with a relatively ample line bundle, such that each fibre admits a constant scalar curvature Kähler metric and has discrete automorphism group. Assuming the base of the fibration admits a twisted extremal metric where the twisting form is a certain Weil-Petersson type…

We give examples of smooth surfaces with negative first Chern class which are slope unstable with respect to certain polarisations, and so have Kahler classes that do not admit any constant scalar curvature Kahler metrics. We also compare this to the work of Song-Weinkove on the J-flow.

We find a presentation of symplectic Steinberg modules and show vanishing cohomology for certain groups.

We construct the full linearisation functor which takes a graded bundle of degree $k$ (a particular kind of graded manifold) and produces a $k$-fold vector bundle. We fully characterise the image of the full linearisation functor and show that we obtain a subcategory of $k$-fold vector bundles consisting of symmetric $…
