Decomposition of forms in $\operatorname{SU}(4)$-manifold
$\DeclareMathOperator\Spin{Spin}\DeclareMathOperator\SU{SU}$Let $(X,\Omega,\omega,J)$ be a manifold with an $\SU(4)$ structure. Since $\SU(4)\subset\Spin(7)$, $X$ also has a $\Spin(7)$-structure. I ...

Unique Kahler-Einstein metric $g$ with $\mathrm{Ricc}(g)=-g$ when first Chern class $C_1(M)<0$: $\mathrm{Ricc}(h)=-g\,\Rightarrow\,h=cg$ for $c>0$?
On a compact Kahler manifold, let $g$ be the unique Kahler-Einstein metric with $\mathrm{Ricc}(g)=-g$, proved to exist by Yau and Aubin when the first Chern class $C_1(M)<0$.
Question: Does $g$ ...

Calabi - Yau Manifolds
I just started reading about Calabi-Yau manifolds and most of the sources I came across defined Calabi-Yau manifold in a different way. I can see that some of them are just same and I can derive one ...
