Conformally Einstein-Maxwell Kähler metrics and structure of the automorphism group (Q2633151)

If \((M,g,J)\) is a compact Kähler manifold, \(f\) is a positive smooth function such that its Hamiltonian vector field \(K=J\mathrm{grad}_gf\) for the Kähler form \(\omega_g\) is a holomorphic Killing vector field, then it is said that the pair \((g,f)\) is a conformally Kähler-Einstein-Maxwell metric if the conformal metric \(\widetilde{g}=f^{-2}g\) has constant scalar curvature. In this paper, the authors are interested in finding a Kähler metric \(g\) in a fixed Kähler class and a positive Hamiltonian Killing potential \(f\) such that \(\widetilde{g}=f^{-2}g\) is a conformally Kähler-Einstein-Maxwell metric. The primary question is which choice of a Killing vector field \(K\) is the right one, and the secondary question is whether the Lichnerowicz-Matsushima theorem asserting the reductiveness of the Lie algebra of holomorphic vector fields \(K\) can be extended for conformally Kähler-Einstein-Maxwell manifolds. If \(G\) is the connected subgroup of \(\mathrm{Aut}(M)\) corresponding to \(\mathfrak{g}=\mathrm{Lie}(G)\), then \(G\) is said to be the reduced automorphism group. If \(T\) is a maximal torus of \(G\) and \(T^C\) is its complexification, then \(T^C\) is a subgroup of the maximal reductive subgroup \(G_r\) of \(G\). If \(\mathrm{Isom}(M,g)\) is the group of all isometries of \((M,g)\), \(K\in\mathrm{Lie}(T)\), \(\widetilde{g}=f^{-2}g\) is a conformally Einstein-Maxwell Kähler metric, and \(f\) is a positive smooth function with \(J\mathrm{grad}_gf=K\), then the authors give affirmative answers to the above questions by showing that the centralizer \(G^K=\{g\in G; Ad(g)K=K\}\) of \(K\) in the reduced automorphism group \(G\) is the complexification of \(\mathrm{Isom}(M,g)\cap G^K\). In particular \(G^K\) is reductive.
