Constant $μ$-scalar curvature Kähler metric -- formulation and foundational results

Abstract

We introduce mu-scalar curvature for a K"ahler metric with a moment map mu and start up a study on constant mu-scalar curvature K"ahler metric as a generalization of both cscK metric and K"ahler-Ricci soliton and as a continuity path to extremal metric. We study some fundamental constraints to the existence of constant mu-scalar curvature K"ahler metric by investigating a volume functional as a generalization of Tian-Zhu's work, which is closely related to Perelman's W-functional. A new K-energy is studied as an approach to the uniqueness problem of constant mu-scalar curvature and as a prelude to new K-stability concept.

Curvature equations coupling symmetric tensors with a metric

There are described hierarchies of equations coupling a metric with a trace-free tensor having prescribed symmetries and in the kernel of certain generalized gradients. These specialize, when the tensor vanishes identically, to the usual hierarchy of constant sectional curvature (projectively flat), Einstein, and constant scalar curvature. At the Ricci curvature level these equations are formal analogues of the Einstein-Maxwell and supergravity equations that couple differential forms with a metric. The particular cases coupling a metric with trace-free symmetric tensors satisfying the Codazzi or conformal Killing equations are studied in detail. Examples of solutions are obtained from mean curvature zero immersions, affine spheres, isoparametric hypersurfaces, and related algebraic constructions. The formalism yields a hierarchy of curvature equations for statistical structures. There are deduced constraints on the scalar curvature of the metric occurring in a solution that generalize classical results of Simons, for mean curvature zero hypersurfaces in spheres, and of Calabi, for hyperbolic affine spheres.

The signature of geometrically decomposable aspherical 4-manifolds

We construct examples of geometrically decomposable aspherical 4-manifolds with non-zero signature. We show that all such 4-manifolds satisfy the inequality (of Bogomolov--Miyaoka--Yau type) $χ\geq 3|σ|$. We also construct examples attaining the equality that are non-geometric and have non-zero signature. Finally, we prove that for higher graph 4-manifolds, with complex-hyperbolic vertices, the strict inequality always holds. Moreover, we construct infinitely many examples of higher graph 4-manifolds with non-zero signature and prove that the inequality is strict and sharp in this class.

Proper affine deformations of positive representations

We define for every positive Anosov representation of a nonabelian free group into $\mathrm{SO}(2n,2n-1)$ a family of $\mathbb{R}^{4n-1}$-valued cocycles which induce proper affine actions on $\mathbb{R}^{4n-1}$. We construct fundamental domains in $\mathbb{R}^{4n-1}$ bounded by generalized crooked planes for these affine actions, and deduce that the quotient manifolds are homeomorphic to handlebodies.
