SUMMARY:A priori estimates for Monge-Ampere equations and existence of Kahler-Einstein metrics
UID:54464-ucb-events-calendar@berkeley.edu
ORGANIZER;CN="UC Berkeley Calendar Network":
LOCATION:736 Evans Hall
DESCRIPTION:Yanir Rubinstein\, Stanford University\n\nMy aim will be to give a brief introduction to Kahler-Einstein geometry. First\, I will explain how\, on a Kahler manifold\, the Einstein equation reduces to the complex Monge-Ampere equation. Then\, I will try to explain a new approach to solving this equation that borrows ideas from harmonic maps (going back to Lu's UC Berkeley thesis from 1967) and the Ricci flow. This approach leads to a new proof of the Calabi-Yau theorem\, as well as to a solution of some conjectures by Donaldson and Tian from the mid 90's on existence of singular Kahler-Einstein metrics.
