Solutions of equations characterizing a complex structure
Let $(S^n,g)$ denote the unit $n$-sphere endowed with its induced metric $g$ from its embedding into $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. The Levi-Civita connection of $g$ induces a splitting of the tangent bundle of $...

Examples of manifolds that do not admit scalar flat metrics
The Kazdan-Warner trichotomy states that for $n\ge 3$, a compact $n$-manifold falls into one of three categories:
(A) Every (smooth) function is a scalar curvature.
(B) The manifold is strongly ...

Kähler metrics for projective space that are not the Fubini-Study metric
For projective $N$-space $CP^{N}$, there is a canonical Kähler metric called the Fubini-Study metric. Do there exist other Kähler metrics for $CP^N$. If so, is there any classification of such metrics?...

Isometric embedding of a real-analytic Riemannian manifold in a compact Kähler manifold
Hallo,
It is a known fact that any real-analytic Riemannian manifold $M$ admits a isometric embedding in a Kähler manifold $\Omega$, where $M$ is totally real in $\Omega$. Of $\Omega$ can be taught ...

Calculation about Chern character in a special setting
I'm confused with working out the Chern character in the following special setting.
Let $E$ be a spinor bundle
$$S=P_{Spin(2n)}(S^{2n})\times_\rho \mathbb{C}^{2n}$$
over sphere $S^{2n}$, where $\rho$ ...

The space of generalized complex structures in sense of N.Hitchin is contractible?
Generalized complex structures were introduced by Nigel Hitchin in 2002. A generalized almost complex structure is an almost complex structure of the generalized tangent bundle which preserves the ...

Non simply connected HyperKähler 4-manifolds without ALE metrics
In a 1989 paper Peter Kronheimer showed that each simply connected HyperKähler 4-manifold possesses an ALE metric. What do we know about the non-simply connected cases?
