Abstract: In this paper, we study Hessian equations and complex quotient equations on closed Hermitian manifolds. We directly derive the uniform estimate for the admissible solution. As an application, we solve general Hessian equations on closed K"ahler manifolds.


If \((M,\omega)\) is a compact Hermitian manifold of complex dimension \(n\geq 2\) and \(\chi\) is a smooth real \((1,1)\)-form on \(M\), then \(\chi_u=\chi+\sqrt{-1}\,\partial\overline\partial u\) and \([\chi]=\{\chi_u;\;u\in C^2(M)\}\). If \(0\leq k\leq n\), \(\lambda=(\lambda_1,\cdots,\lambda_n)\in\mathbb R^n\), and \(S_k(\lambda)=\sum\limits_{1\leq i_1<\dots<i_k\leq n}\lambda_{i_1}\cdots\lambda_{i_k}\) is the \(k\)-th elementary symmetric polynomial, then the \(\alpha\)-positive cone \(\Gamma^\alpha\subset\mathbb R^n\) is defined as \(\Gamma^\alpha=\{\lambda;\;S_k(\lambda)>0\}\), \(k=1,\dots,\alpha\), and \(\Gamma^\alpha_\omega\) is the set of all the real \((1,1)\)-forms whose pointwise eigenvalue set with respect to \(\omega\) belongs to \(\Gamma^\alpha\). For a smooth positive real function \(f\) on \(M\), \(1\leq\beta<\alpha\leq n\), and \(\chi\in\Gamma^\alpha_\omega\), the equation \((*)\;\chi^\alpha_u\wedge\omega^{n-\alpha}=f\,\chi^\beta_u\wedge\omega^{n-\beta}\) with \(\chi_u\in\Gamma^\alpha_\omega\) is the complex \((\alpha,\beta)\)-quotient equation on \(M\). If \(\beta=0\), then \((*)\) becomes the complex \(\alpha\)-Hessian equation \(\chi^\alpha_u\wedge\omega^{n-\alpha}=f\omega^n\). In this paper, the author studies Hessian equations and complex quotient equations on closed Hermitian manifolds. It is shown that if \((M,\omega)\) is a closed Hermitian manifold of complex dimension \(n\geq 2\), \(\chi\) is a smooth real \((1,1)\)-form, and \(u\) is a smooth solution of \((*)\), then there is a uniform estimate for \(u\) depending only on \((M,\omega)\), \(\chi\) and \(f\). Also, the author proves that if \((M,\omega)\) is a closed Kähler manifold of complex dimension \(n\geq 2\) and \(\chi\) is a smooth real \((1,1)\)-form in \(\Gamma^\alpha_\omega\), then there exists a unique smooth real function \(u\) and a unique real number \(b\) such that \(\chi^\alpha_u\wedge\omega^{n-\alpha}=e^bf\omega^n\) with \(\chi_u\in\Gamma^\alpha_\omega\) and \(\sup\limits_Mu=0\).
