Abstract

The Futaki invariant is a fundamental tool in Kähler geometry representing an obstruction to the existence of Kähler-Einstein metrics. Recently, it was generalized to compact complex manifolds. In this paper, we prove that it vanishes on Hopf manifolds.

Remarks on potential functions of noncompact quasi-Einstein manifolds

In this article, we study the set of potential functions on noncompact quasi-Einstein manifolds. We show that the space of all positive potential functions on a three-dimensional noncompact quasi-Einstein manifold has dimension at most two, and that equality holds if and only if the manifold is isometric to a product $B\times\mathbb{R}$, where $B$ is a $λ$-Einstein surface or one of the examples obtained by L. Berard Bergery and described in Besse's book. Moreover, we prove that any asymptotically flat $n$-dimensional quasi-Einstein manifold with $λ=0$ is necessarily Ricci-flat.

Adjusted connections on non-abelian bundle gerbes

Higher gauge theory for non-abelian structure 2-groups faces significant challenges when extending beyond the fake-flat sector, which suffers from limited applicability in physical models. A promising resolution involves equipping 2-groups with additional structure, known as adjustments. We present a comprehensive theory of adjusted connections on non-abelian bundle gerbes, classified by Saemann's adjusted version of non-abelian differential cohomology. This theory enables, in particular, a new coordinate-independent formulation of Tellez-Dominguez' lifting theorem, establishing a correspondence between adjusted connections on non-abelian bundle gerbes and connections on abelian bundle 2-gerbes.

Balancing the 2-systoles of some Kähler manifolds with positive scalar curvature

Theorems by Bray-Brendle-Neves and Zhu about positive scalar curvature metrics on products of a 2-sphere and an n-torus suggests that positive scalar curvature suggests and appropriate topological assumptions should lead to the existence of a topologically non trivial 2-spheres of small area, which can be stated as upper bound on the 2-systole of such manifolds. Recent progress have been made in this direction by Sha and Tsiamis under the additional K{ä}hler assumption while Checcini-Hirsh-Ziedler, Stryker and Tsiamis showed similar upper bounds on the stable 2-systole using index theoretic methods. We prove here similar inequalities for some K{ä}hler manifold which control the relative sizes of the representatives of a well chosen set of homology classes. For instance on $(\mathbb{CP}^1x\mathbb{CP}^1 , ω)$ with a positive scalar curvature K{ä}hler metric we quantitavely show that largeness of one factor imposes smallness of the other one.
