Note on Poincaré type Kähler metrics and Futaki characters

Abstract

A Poincaré type Kähler metric on the complement X\D of a simple normal crossing divisor D, in a compact Kähler manifold X, is a Kähler metric on X\D with cusp singularity along D. We relate the Futaki character for holomorphic vector fields parallel to the divisor, defined for any fixed Poincaré type Kähler class, to the classical Futaki character for the relative smooth class. As an application we express a numerical obstruction to the existence of extremal Poincaré type Kähler metrics, in terms of mean scalar curvatures and Futaki characters.
