Laplacians on the holomorphic tangent bundle of a Kähler manifold (Q983641)

Let \((M, J, g)\) be an Hermitian manifold and \(TM ={\mathcal V}\oplus {\mathcal H}\) the canonical decomposition of the tangent bundle into vertical and horizontal subbundles, determined by the unique Hermitian connection \(D\) of \((M, J, g)\). Notice that, if \(\widehat J\) is the natural complex structure of \(TM\) and \(\widehat g\) is the Riemannian metric on \(TM\), defined by the conditions \(\widehat g|_{{\mathcal V}\times_M{\mathcal H}} = 0\), \(\widehat g|_{{\mathcal H}\times_M{\mathcal H}} = (\pi|_{{\mathcal H}})^* g\) and \(\widehat g|_{{\mathcal V}\times_M{\mathcal V}} = g\), the pair \(( \widehat J, \widehat g)\) is a natural Hermitian structure on \(TM\), which is canonically associated with \((g, J)\). In this paper, the author determines explicit expressions (in terms of \(g\) and \(D\)) for the horizontal and vertical Laplacians of the complex Hermitian subbundles \({\mathcal V}^{10}\), \({\mathcal H}^{10} \subset T^{10} M\), under the assumption that \((M, g, J)\) is Kähler. The results are used to prove a Bochner-type vanishing theorem for compactly supported holomorphic horizontal \(p\)-forms on the holomorphic tangent bundles of Kähler manifolds.
