Compact embedding of the $\mathcal{C}^k$ norm on a compact Kahler manifold

Given a smooth complex valued function $f$ on a Kahler manifold $X$, we can define its $\mathcal{C}^k$ norm to be $\sum_{p+q \leq k, 0 \leq p \leq q} sup_{X}|\nabla^{p} \overline{\nabla^q} f|_g$, ...

When is a minimal immersion holomorphic?

Let $(X,g_X)$ be a Riemann surface and $(Y,g_Y)$ a Kahler manifold. Let: $\phi\colon X\to Y$ be a minimal immersion, that is, a conformal harmonic smooth map with respect to $g_X$ and $g_Y$. If I am ...

Are the eigenvalues of the Laplacian of a generic Kähler metric simple?

It is a theorem of Uhlenbeck that for a generic Riemannian metric, the Laplacian acting on functions has simple eigenvalues, i.e., all the eigenspaces are 1-dimensional. (Here "generic" means the set ...
