Abstract:

The k-Ricci curvature interpolates between the Ricci curvature and holomorphic sectional curvature. For the positive case, a recent result asserts that the compact Kaehler manifolds with positive k-Ricci are projective and rationally connected. This generalizes the previous results of Campana, Kollar-Miyaoka-Mori for the Fano case and the Heirer-Wong and Yang for holomorphic sectional curvature case. For the negative case, all compact Kaehler manifolds with negative k-Ricci admit a Kaehler-Einstein metric with negative scalar curvature.

      What is curvature? And why is it important?

      AbstractThe curvature tensor captures the essential geometry of a Riemannian manifold. Curvaturebounds have important geometric, analvtical and topoloaical conseauences, in tum. these can beused for axiomatic characterizations of curvature bounds and extended to general metric spaces.Problems of modemn data analysis lead to a new perspective on curvature that will bedeveloped in this lecture, a...
