Conformally Kähler, Einstein--Maxwell metrics and boundedness of the modified Mabuchi-functional
arXiv:1710.00235
Abstract
We prove that if a compact smooth polarized complex manifold admits in the corresponding Hodge Kähler class a conformally Kähler, Einstein--Maxwell metric, or more generally, a Kähler metric of constant -scalar curvature, then this metric minimizes the -Mabuchi functional. Our method of proof extends the approach introduced by Donaldson and developed by Li and Sano--Tipler, via finite dimensional approximations and generalized balanced metrics. As an application of our result and the recent construction of Koca--Tønnesen-Friedman, we describe the Kähler classes on a geometrically ruled complex surface of genus greater than 2, which admit conformally Kähler, Einstein-Maxwell metrics.
