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