Metrics are semipositively curved if they meet a specific asymptotic condition.

Quantizes semipositive line bundles on complex manifolds.

In this paper, we study the dimension of cohomology of semipositive line bundles over Hermitian manifolds, and obtain an asymptotic estimate for the dimension of the space of harmonic $(0,q)$-forms with values in high tensor powers of a semipositive line bundle when the fundamental estimate holds. As applications, we e…

Study on zeros of Gaussian sections on semipositive line bundles on punctured Riemann surfaces.

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…

We give a new variant of $L^2$-extension theorem for the jets of holomorphic sections and discuss the relation between the extension problem of singular Hermitian metrics with semipositive curvature.

Alternative proof of semipositivity and nefness for K-semistable log-Fano pairs.

Geometric quantization results for Riemann surfaces with semi-positive line bundles.

In this paper, we introduce a flow over the projective bundle $p:P(E^*)\to M$, which is a natural generalization of both Hermitian-Yang-Mills flow and Kähler-Ricci flow. We prove that the semipositivity of curvature of the hyperplane line bundle $\mathcal{O}_{P(E^*)}(1)$ is preserved along this flow under the null eige…

We shall show that $q$-semipositivity of the vector bundle $E$ over a Kähler total space $\mathcal X$ implies the Griffiths-semipositivity of the $q$-th direct image of $\mathcal O(K_{\mathcal X/B}\otimes E)$. As an application, we shall give a negative-curvature criterion for the generalized Weil-Petersson metric on t…

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus at least two, and let ${\mathcal Q}_X(r,d)$ be the quot scheme that parametrizes all the torsion coherent quotients of ${\mathcal O}^{\oplus r}_X$ of degree $d$. This ${\mathcal Q}_X(r,d)$ is also a moduli space of vortices on $X$. Its geometric properties have be…

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 proves inequalities for orbifold second Chern classes in Fujiki's class.

In this paper we establish partial structure results on the geometry of compact Hermitian manifolds of semipositive Griffiths curvature. We show that after appropriate arbitrary small deformation of the initial metric, the null spaces of the Chern-Ricci two-form generate a holomorphic, integrable distribution. This dis…

In this article, we construct the canonical semipositive current or the canonical measure ($=$ the potential of the canonical semipositive current) on a smooth projective variety of nonnegative Kodaira dimension in terms of a dynamical system of Bergman kernels. This current is considered to be a generalization of a Kä…

We establish the equidistribution of zeros of random holomorphic sections of powers of a semipositive singular Hermitian line bundle, with an estimate of the convergence speed.

Extends construction of Kähler-Einstein metrics to noncompact manifolds.

We pose a conjecture about Morse-type integrals in nef (1,1) classes on compact Hermitian manifolds, and we show that it holds for semipositive classes, or when the manifold admits certain special Hermitian metrics.

In this article we construct a canonical Kähler-Einstein current on a LC (log canonical) pairs of log general type as the limit of a sequence of canonical Kähler-Einstein currents on KLT(Kawamata log terminal) pairs of log general type. We call the volume form associated with the canonical Kähler-Einstein current the c…

We prove a Lefschetz hyperplane theorem for the determinantal loci of a morphism between two holomorphic vector bundles $E$ and $F$ over a complex manifold under the condition that $E^*\ox F$ is Griffiths $k$-positive. We apply this result to find some homotopy groups of the Brill-Noether loci for a generic curve.

Paper proves positivity of Chern-Weil forms for certain vector bundles.

We discuss positive closed currents and Fubini-Study currents on orbifolds, as well as Bergman kernels of singular Hermitian orbifold line bundles. We prove that the Fubini-Study currents associated to high powers of a semipositive singular line bundle converge weakly to the curvature current on the set where the curva…

The Oeljeklaus-Toma (OT-) manifolds are complex manifolds constructed by Oeljeklaus and Toma from certain number fields, and generalizing the Inoue surfaces $S_m$. On each OT-manifold we construct a holomorphic line bundle with semipositive curvature form and trivial Chern class. Using this form, we prove that the OT-m…

Canonical bundle formula due to Kawamata and others has played fundamental roles in algebraic geometry. We show that the canonical bundle formula has analytic characterization in terms of fiberwise integration, which confirms a folklore conjecture. The proof uses $L^2$ metrics and the valuative equivalence of plurisubh…

We study the line bundle mean curvature flow on Kähler surfaces under the hypercritical phase and a certain semipositivity condition. We naturally encounter such a condition when considering the blowup of Kähler surfaces. We show that the flow converges smoothly to a singular solution to the deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mil…

We introduce a cohomological obstruction to solving the constant scalar curvature Kähler (cscK) equation twisted by a semipositive form, appearing in works of Fine and Song-Tian. Geometrically this gives an obstruction for a manifold to be the base of a holomorphic submersion carrying a cscK metric in certain ``adiabat…

Given a Kähler fiber space $p:X\to Y$ whose generic fiber is of general type, we prove that the fiberwise singular Kähler-Einstein metric induces a semipositively curved metric on the relative canonical bundle $K_{X/Y}$ of $p$. We also propose a conjectural generalization of this result for relative twisted Kähler-Eins…

Sufficient condition for log-continuity of complex Monge-Ampère solutions.

We construct equivariant, string and leading order characteristic classes and Chern-Simons classes for certain infinite rank bundles associated to fibrations occurring in loop spaces, Gromov-Witten theory and gauge theory. Results include a restatement of the S^1 index theorem using equivariant classes on the tangent b…

Starting from a Heegaard splitting of a three-manifold, we use Lagrangian Floer homology to construct a three-manifold invariant, in the form of a relatively Z/8-graded abelian group. Our motivation is to have a well-defined symplectic side of the Atiyah-Floer Conjecture, for arbitrary three-manifolds. The symplectic m…

We study several questions involving relative Ricci-flat Kähler metrics for families of log Calabi-Yau manifolds. Our main result states that if $p:(X,B)\to Y$ is a Kähler fiber space such that $\displaystyle (X_y, B|_{X_y})$ is generically klt, $K_{X/Y}+B$ is relatively trivial and $p_*(m(K_{X/Y}+B))$ is Hermitian fla…

In this paper, we employ a nonlocal $Q$-curvature flow inspired by Gursky-Malchiodi's work \cite{gur_mal} to solve the prescribed $Q$-curvature problem on a class of closed manifolds: For $n \geq 5$, let $(M^n,g_0)$ be a smooth closed manifold, which is not conformally diffeomorphic to the standard sphere, satisfying e…
