Scalar curvature and deformations of complex structures
Carlo Scarpa (CIRGET)
Abstract: A classical problem in Kähler geometry is to choose, among all the possible Kähler metrics on a manifold, a canonical representative of each Kähler class. This is usually done by imposing curvature conditions on the metric, such as Ricci-flat, Kähler-Einstein, or constant scalar curvature. In this talk, I will describe how the problem changes when we also consider deformations of the complex structure, introducing a partial differential equation which gives a canonical choice of a Kähler metric for each deformation class. Time permitting, I will examine the case of toric manifolds in more detail. The talk is based on arxiv:2202.00429 and joint work with J. Stoppa.
