Abstract

An index theorem for the anti-self-dual deformation complex on anti-self-dual orbifolds with cyclic quotient singularities is proved. We present two applications of this theorem. The first is to compute the dimension of the deformation space of the Calderbank–Singer scalar-flat Kähler toric ALE spaces. A corollary of this is that, except for the Eguchi–Hanson metric, all of these spaces admit non-toric anti-self-dual deformations, thus yielding many new examples of anti-self-dual ALE spaces. For our second application, we compute the dimension of the deformation space of the canonical Bochner-Kähler metric on any weighted projective space ℂℙ ( r , q , p ) 2 for relatively prime integers 1 < r < q < p . A corollary of this is that, while these metrics are rigid as Bochner–Kähler metrics, infinitely many of these admit non-trivial self-dual deformations, yielding a large class of new examples of self-dual orbifold metrics on certain weighted projective spaces.
