Let X be a compact Kähler manifold and γ Kähler class. For a Kàhler metric g on X we denote by Rg the scalar curvature on X According to Calabi [3][4], consider the functional defined on the set of all the Kähler metrics g whose Kähler forms belong to γ, where dvg is the volume form associated to g. Such a Kähler metric is called extremal if it gives a critical point of Ф. In particular, if Rg is constant, g is extremal. The converse is also true if dim L(X) = 0, where L(X) is the maximal connected linear algebraic subgroup of AutoX (cf. [5]). Note also that any Kähler-Einstein metric is of constant scalar curvature.

For any complex manifold of Kähler type, the L2-norm of the scalar curvature of an extremal Kähler metric is a continuous function of the Kähler class. In particular, if a convergent sequence of Kähler classes are represented by extremal Kähler metrics, the corresponding sequence of L2-norms of the scalar curvatures is convergent. Similarly, the sequence of holomorphic vector fields associated with a sequence of extremal Kähler metrics with converging Kähler classes is convergent.

For an integral Kähler class on a compact connected complex manifold, an extremal Kähler metric, if any, in the class is unique up to the action of Aut 0(M). This generalizes a recent result of Donaldson (see [4] for cases of metrics of constant scalar curvature) and that of Chen [3] for c1(M)≤0.

Fix a positive (1, 1)-class on a compact Kählerian manifold. Given a Kähler form representing this class, define its Calabi energy to be the L2-norm of its scalar curvature. This note proves that a critical metric for the Calabi energy, if any, is a global minimum among representatives of the chosen class, and that the critical value is determined a priori by the Kähler class. This answers affirmatively two questions of Calabi ([2, p. 99]).
