Deformations of Kähler manifolds with nonvanishing holomorphic vector fields

Jaume Amorós, Mònica Manjarín, Marcel Nicolau (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study compact Kähler manifolds $X$ admitting nonvanishing holomorphic vector fields, extending the classical birational classification of projective varieties with tangent vector fields to a classification modulo deformation in the Kähler case, and biholomorphic in the projective case. We introduce and analyze a new class of $𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑎𝑙𝑑𝑒𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑚𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠$ , and show that they form a smooth subspace in the Kuranishi space of deformations of the complex structure of $X$ . We extend Calabi’s theorem on the structure of...

Holomorphic actions, Kummer examples, and Zimmer program

Serge Cantat, Abdelghani Zeghib (2012)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

We classify compact Kähler manifolds $M$ of dimension $n \geq 3$ on which acts a lattice of an almost simple real Lie group of rank $\geq n - 1$ . This provides a new line in the so-called Zimmer program, and characterizes certain complex tori as compact Kähler manifolds with large automorphisms groups.

Partial integrability on Thurston manifolds

Hyeseon Kim (2013)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We determine the maximal number of independent holomorphic functions on the Thurston manifolds $M^{2 r + 2}$ , r ≥ 1, which are the first discovered compact non-Kähler almost Kähler manifolds. We follow the method which involves analyzing the torsion tensor dθ modθ, where $θ = (θ ¹, . . ., θ^{r + 1})$ are independent (1,0)-forms.

Which 3-manifold groups are Kähler groups?

Alexandru Dimca, Alexander Suciu (2009)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

The question in the title, first raised by Goldman and Donaldson, was partially answered by Reznikov. We give a complete answer, as follows: if $G$ can be realized as both the fundamental group of a closed 3-manifold and of a compact Kähler manifold, then $G$ must be finite—and thus belongs to the well-known list of finite subgroups of $O (4)$ , acting freely on $S^{3}$ .

About the Calabi problem: a finite-dimensional approach

H.-D. Cao, J. Keller (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let us consider a projective manifold $M^{n}$ and a smooth volume form $Ω$ on $M$ . We define the gradient flow associated to the problem of $Ω$ -balanced metrics in the quantum formalism, the $Ω$ -balancing flow. At the limit of the quantization, we prove that (see Theorem 1) the $Ω$ -balancing flow converges towards a natural flow in Kähler geometry, the $Ω$ -Kähler flow. We also prove the long time existence of the $Ω$ -Kähler flow and its convergence towards Yau’s solution to the Calabi conjecture of prescribing...

Real Monge-Ampère equations and Kähler-Ricci solitons on toric log Fano varieties

Robert J. Berman, Bo Berndtsson (2013)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

We show, using a direct variational approach, that the second boundary value problem for the Monge-Ampère equation in $ℝ^{n}$ with exponential non-linearity and target a convex body $P$ is solvable iff $0$ is the barycenter of $P .$ Combined with some toric geometry this confirms, in particular, the (generalized) Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for toric log Fano varieties $(X, Δ)$ saying that $(X, Δ)$ admits a (singular) Kähler-Einstein metric iff it is K-stable in the algebro-geometric sense. We thus obtain a new...

Towards a Mori theory on compact Kähler threefolds III

Thomas Peternell (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

Based on the results of the first two parts to this paper, we prove that the canonical bundle of a minimal Kähler threefold ( $K_{X}$ is nef) is good,its Kodaira dimension equals the numerical Kodaira dimension, (in particular some multiple of $K_{X}$ is generated by global sections); unless $X$ is simple. “Simple“ means that there is no compact subvariety through the very general point of $X$ and $X$ not Kummer. Moreover we show that a compact Kähler threefold with only terminal singularities...

The Kähler Ricci flow on Fano manifolds (I)

Xiuxiong Chen, Bing Wang (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study the evolution of pluri-anticanonical line bundles $K_{M}^{- ν}$ along the Kähler Ricci flow on a Fano manifold $M$ . Under some special conditions, we show that the convergence of this flow is determined by the properties of the pluri-anticanonical divisors of $M$ . For example, the Kähler Ricci flow on $M$ converges when $M$ is a Fano surface satisfying $c_{1}^{2} (M) = 1$ or $c_{1}^{2} (M) = 3$ . Combined with the works in [CW1] and [CW2], this gives a Ricci flow proof of the Calabi conjecture on Fano surfaces with reductive automorphism...

Appendix to the article of T. Peternell: the Kodaira dimension of Kummer threefolds

Frédéric Campana, Thomas Peternell (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We prove that Kummer threefolds $T / G$ with algebraic dimension $0$ have Kodaira dimension 0.

Lie description of higher obstructions to deforming submanifolds

Marco Manetti (2007)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

To every morphism $χ : L \to M$ of differential graded Lie algebras we associate a functors of artin rings ${Def}_{χ}$ whose tangent and obstruction spaces are respectively the first and second cohomology group of the suspension of the mapping cone of $χ$ . Such construction applies to Hilbert and Brill-Noether functors and allow to prove with ease that every higher obstruction to deforming a smooth submanifold of a Kähler manifold is annihilated by the semiregularity map.

Finite orbit decomposition of real flag manifolds

Bernhard Krötz, Henrik Schlichtkrull (2016)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let $G$ be a connected real semi-simple Lie group and $H$ a closed connected subgroup. Let $P$ be a minimal parabolic subgroup of $G$ . It is shown that $H$ has an open orbit on the flag manifold $G / P$ if and only if it has finitely many orbits on $G / P$ . This confirms a conjecture by T. Matsuki.

Kähler-Einstein metrics with mixed Poincaré and cone singularities along a normal crossing divisor

Henri Guenancia (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

Let $X$ be a compact Kähler manifold and $Δ$ be a $ℝ$ -divisor with simple normal crossing support and coefficients between $1 / 2$ and $1$ . Assuming that $K_{X} + Δ$ is ample, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a negatively curved Kahler-Einstein metric on $X ∖ Supp (Δ)$ having mixed Poincaré and cone singularities according to the coefficients of $Δ$ . As an application we prove a vanishing theorem for certain holomorphic tensor fields attached to the pair $(X, Δ)$ .

Symplectic critical surfaces in Kähler surfaces

Xiaoli Han, Jiayu Li (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let $M$ be a Kähler surface and $Σ$ be a closed symplectic surface which is smoothly immersed in $M$ . Let $α$ be the Kähler angle of $Σ$ in $M$ . We first deduce the Euler-Lagrange equation of the functional $L = \int_{Σ} \frac{1}{cos α} d μ$ in the class of symplectic surfaces. It is ${cos}^{3} α H = {(J {(J \nabla cos α)}^{⊤})}^{⊥}$ , where $H$ is the mean curvature vector of $Σ$ in $M$ , $J$ is the complex structure compatible with the Kähler form $ω$ in $M$ , which is an elliptic equation. We call such a surface a symplectic critical surface. We show that, if $M$ is a Kähler-Einstein surface...

Convergence in capacity

Pham Hoang Hiep (2008)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We prove that if $(Ω) ∋ u_{j} \to u \in (Ω)$ in Cₙ-capacity then $l i m i n f_{j \to \infty} {(d d^{c} u_{j})}^{n} \geq 1_{u > - \infty} {(d d^{c} u)}^{n}$ . This result is used to consider the convergence in capacity on bounded hyperconvex domains and compact Kähler manifolds.

Connected transversals -- the Zassenhaus case

Tomáš Kepka, Petr Němec (2000)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In this short note, it is shown that if $A, B$ are $H$ -connected transversals for a finite subgroup $H$ of an infinite group $G$ such that the index of $H$ in $G$ is at least 3 and $H \cap H^{u} \cap H^{v} = 1$ whenever $u, v \in G ∖ H$ and $u v^{- 1} \in G ∖ H$ then $A = B$ is a normal abelian subgroup of $G$ .

On quotients of the space of orderings of the field ℚ(x)

Paweł Gładki, Bill Jacob (2016)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

In this paper we present a method of obtaining new examples of spaces of orderings by considering quotient structures of the space of orderings $(X_{ℚ (x)}, G_{ℚ (x)})$ - it is, in general, nontrivial to determine whether, for a subgroup $G ₀ \subset G_{ℚ (x)}$ the derived quotient structure $(X_{ℚ (x)} |_{G ₀}, G ₀)$ is a space of orderings, and we provide some insights into this problem. In particular, we show that if a quotient structure arising from a subgroup of index 2 is a space of orderings, then it necessarily is a profinite one.

Ulm-Kaplansky invariants of S(KG)/G

P. V. Danchev (2005)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

Let G be an infinite abelian p-group and let K be a field of the first kind with respect to p of characteristic different from p such that $s_{p} (K) = ℕ$ or $s_{p} (K) = ℕ \cup 0$ . The main result of the paper is the computation of the Ulm-Kaplansky functions of the factor group S(KG)/G of the normalized Sylow p-subgroup S(KG) in the group ring KG modulo G. We also characterize the basic subgroups of S(KG)/G by proving that they are isomorphic to S(KB)/B, where B is a basic subgroup of G.
