These are the notes for lectures given at the Sanya winter school in complex analysis and geometry in January 2016. In Sec. 1, we review the meaning of Ricci curvature of Kähler metrics and introduce the problem of finding Kähler–Einstein metrics. In Sec. 2, we describe the formal picture that leads to the notion of K-stability of Fano manifolds, which is an algebro-geometric criterion for the existence of a Kähler–Einstein metric, by the recent result of Chen–Donaldson–Sun. In Sec. 3, we discuss algebraic structure on Gromov–Hausdorff limits, which is a key ingredient in the proof of the Kähler–Einstein result. In Sec. 4, we give a brief survey of the more recent work on tangent cones of singular Kähler–Einstein metrics arising from Gromov–Hausdorff limits, and the connections with algebraic geometry.

In this note, we provide some general discussion on the two main versions in the study of Kähler–Ricci flows over closed manifolds, aiming at smooth convergence to the corresponding Kähler–Einstein metrics with assumptions on the volume form and Ricci curvature form along the flow.

AbstractOn a Fano manifoldMwe study the supremum of the possibletsuch that there is a Kähler metricω∈c1(M) with Ricci curvature bounded below byt. This is shown to be the same as the maximum existence time of Aubin’s continuity path for finding Kähler–Einstein metrics. We show that onP2blown up in one point this supremum is 6/7, and we give upper bounds for other manifolds.

Abstract The goal of this article is to provide a construction and classification, in the case of two complex dimensions, of the possible tangent cones at points of limit spaces of non-collapsed sequences of Kähler-Einstein metrics with cone singularities. The proofs and constructions are completely elementary, nevertheless they have an intrinsic beauty. In a few words; tangent cones correspond to spherical metrics with cone singularities in the projective line by means of the Kähler quotient construction with respect to the S1-action generated by the Reeb vector field, except in the irregular case ℂβ₁×ℂβ₂ with β₂/ β₁ ∉ Q.

Abstract Given a Kähler fiber space p : X → Y {p:X\to Y} whose generic fiber is of general type, we prove that the fiberwise singular Kähler–Einstein metric induces a semipositively curved metric on the relative canonical bundle K X / Y {K_{X/Y}} of p. We also propose a conjectural generalization of this result for relative twisted Kähler–Einstein metrics. Then we show that our conjecture holds true if the Lelong numbers of the twisting current are zero. Finally, we explain the relevance of our conjecture for the study of fiberwise Song–Tian metrics (which represent the analogue of KE metrics for fiber spaces whose generic fiber has positive but not necessarily maximal Kodaira dimension).
