Abstract: A central theme of complex geometry is the relationship between differential-geometric PDEs and algebro-geometric notions of stability. Examples include Hermitian Yang-Mills connections and Kähler-Einstein metrics on the PDE side, and slope stability and K-stability on the algebro-geometric side. I will describe a general framework associating geometric PDEs on complex manifolds to notions of stability, and will sketch a proof showing that existence of solutions is equivalent to stability in a model case. The framework can be seen as an analogue in the setting of varieties of Bridgeland's stability conditions on triangulated categories.
