Symmetries and Kähler-Einstein metrics

Claudio Arezzo, Alessandro Ghigi (2005)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We consider Fano manifolds M that admit a collection of finite automorphism groups G 1 , ... , G k , such that the quotients M / G i are smooth Fano manifolds possessing a Kähler-Einstein metric. Under some numerical and smoothness assumptions on the ramification divisors, we prove that M admits a Kähler-Einstein metric too.

Kähler-Einstein metrics singular along a smooth divisor

Journées équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

In this note we discuss some recent and ongoing joint work with Thalia Jeffres concerning the existence of Kähler-Einstein metrics on compact Kähler manifolds which have a prescribed incomplete singularity along a smooth divisor D . We shall begin with a general discussion of the problem, and give a rough outline of the “classical” proof of existence in the smooth case, due to Yau and Aubin, where no singularities are prescribed. Following this is a discussion of the geometry of the conical...
