Existence and degeneration of Kähler-Einstein metrics on minimal algebraic varieties of general ype (Q1094691): Difference between revisions

The author proves that every smooth minimal algebraic variety of general type over \({\mathbb{C}}\) has a canonical singular Kähler-Einstein metric of negative scalar curvature which depends nicely under smooth deformations. This Kähler-Einstein metric has singularity along the stable exceptional locus of the pluricanonical system. The author uses Hamilton's heat flow to construct the Kähler-Einstein metrics.
