Deformation classes in generalized Kähler geometry

open access: yesComplex Manifolds, 2020
We describe natural deformation classes of generalized Kähler structures using the Courant symmetry group, which determine natural extensions of the notions of Kähler class and Kähler cone to generalized Kähler geometry.

The commutative nonassociative algebra of metric curvature tensors

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2021
The space of tensors of metric curvature type on a Euclidean vector space carries a two-parameter family of orthogonally invariant commutative nonassociative multiplications invariant with respect to the symmetric bilinear form determined by the metric ...

Perelman's entropy for some families of canonical metrics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We numerically calculate Perelman’s entropy for a variety of canonical metrics on CP1-bundles over products of Fano Kähler-Einstein manifolds. The metrics investigated are Einstein metrics, Kähler-Ricci solitons and quasi-Einstein metrics.

The Soliton-Ricci Flow with variable volume forms

open access: yesComplex Manifolds, 2016
We introduce a flow of Riemannian metrics and positive volume forms over compact oriented manifolds whose formal limit is a shrinking Ricci soliton. The case of a fixed volume form has been considered in our previouswork.We still call this new flow, the ...

Real Monge-Ampere equations and Kahler-Ricci solitons on toric log Fano varieties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We show, using a direct variational approach, that the second boundary value problem for the Monge-Amp\`ere equation in R^n with exponential non-linearity and target a convex body P is solvable iff 0 is the barycenter of P.

Calabi flow on toric varieties with bounded Sobolev constant, I

open access: yesComplex Manifolds, 2016
Let (X, P) be a toric variety. In this note, we show that the C0-norm of the Calabi flow φ(t) on X is uniformly bounded in [0, T) if the Sobolev constant of φ(t) is uniformly bounded in [0, T).

Action-Amplitude Approach to Controlled Entropic Self-Organization

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
Motivated by the notion of perceptual error, as a core concept of the perceptual control theory, we propose an action-amplitude model for controlled entropic self-organization (CESO).

On sharp lower bounds for Calabi type functionals and destabilizing properties of gradient flows

open access: yes, 2020
Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold with a given ample line bundle $L$. In \cite{Don05}, Donaldson proved that the Calabi energy of a K\"ahler metric in $c_1(L)$ is bounded from below by the supremum of a normalized version of the minus Donaldson ...

CANONICAL MEASURES AND KÄHLER-RICCI FLOW [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We show that the Kähler-Ricci flow on an algebraic manifold of positive Kodaira dimension and semi-ample canonical line bundle converges to a unique canonical metric on its canonical model.

Kähler metrics via Lorentzian Geometry in dimension four

open access: yesComplex Manifolds, 2019
Given a semi-Riemannian 4-manifold (M, g) with two distinguished vector fields satisfying properties determined by their shear, twist and various Lie bracket relations, a family of Kähler metrics gK is constructed, defined on an open set in M, which ...
