4 Goal. Overview Construct (non-trivial) explicit extremal Kähler metrics on certain complex (toric) manifolds/orbifolds Construct (relative) K-stable toric varieties. Idea. A CR structure on a manifold N is a co-rank l distribution D TN equipped with a complex structure J : D D satisfying [D 1,0, D 1,0 ] D 1,0.

A CR structure on a manifold N is a co-rank l distribution D TN equipped with a complex structure J : D D satisfying [D 1,0, D 1,0 ] D 1,0. Under suitable positivity conditions, N is equipped with a family of horizontal Kähler structures on D. If a Lie group G acts freely and transversely to D, preserving J, then the quotient N/G acquires a family of Kähler metrics. Main Example. N = S 2m1+1 S 2ml+1 C d with d = l + l i=1 2m i and G T d is an l-dimensional subtorus.

41 Computing the scalar curvature Assumption: Suppose (, L) has the combinatorics of the cube C m = [0, 1] [0, 1] in R m and that is projectively equivalent to C m (i.e. opposed facets of intersect on an affine hyperplane). By the Main Theorem, (, L) is the Delzant polytope of a simply-connected orbifold obtained as the quotient of S 3 S 3 and carries a Levi Kähler quotent metric (g LK, ω LK ).
42 If is generic (no parallel opposite facets), then g LK is given by the following ansatz (on int( ) T m ): ξ 1 = 1 m j=2 y j y 1, ξ j = y j + 1 y 1, m j=2 ξ jdt j θ 1 = dt 1 + m j=2 ξ jdt j, θ r = dt 1 + dt r, ξ ξ m ξ ξ m m m ( dξ 2 ) g LK = i ξ ξ m A i (ξ i ) + A i(ξ i )θ i, i=1 m m ω LK = dξ i θ i, ξ ξ m i=1 (1) where ξ i (α 1i, α 2i ) and (t 1,, t m ) are coordinates on T m and A i (x) = a i (x α 0i )(x α 1i )(x α 2i ), a i 0.
43 One thus computes [ s LK = (ξ ξ m ) (m + 1)(m + 2) ξ ξ m ( m i=1 ( m i=1 ) A i (ξ i ) + 2(m + 1) )] A i (ξ i ). ( m i=1 ) A i(ξ i )
44 One thus computes [ s LK = (ξ ξ m ) (m + 1)(m + 2) ξ ξ m ( m i=1 ( m i=1 ) A i (ξ i ) + 2(m + 1) )] A i (ξ i ). For m = 2 the extremal condition corresponds to A 1 (x) + A 2 ( x) = 0. ( m i=1 ) A i(ξ i )
45 One thus computes [ s LK = (ξ ξ m ) (m + 1)(m + 2) ξ ξ m ( m i=1 ( m i=1 ) A i (ξ i ) + 2(m + 1) )] A i (ξ i ). For m = 2 the extremal condition corresponds to A 1 (x) + A 2 ( x) = 0. This leads to the following Theorem 2 (ACGL) ( m i=1 ) A i(ξ i ) There exist a four parameter family of simply connected compact topic orbifolds M 4 p,q,r,s whose Delzant polytopes are (all possible) compact convex quadrilaterals and for which the Levi Kähler metric g LK is extremal. These extremal metrics are explicitly given by two cubics depending on 6 real coefficients.
