Higher regularity for singular Kähler-Einstein metrics

Abstract

We study singular Kähler-Einstein metrics that are obtained as non-collapsed limits of polarized Kähler-Einstein manifolds. Our main result is that if the metric tangent cone at a point is locally isomorphic to the germ of the singularity, then the metric converges to the metric on its tangent cone at a polynomial rate on the level of Kähler potentials. When the tangent cone at the point has a smooth cross section, then the result implies polynomial convergence of the metric in the usual sense, generalizing a result due to Hein-Sun. We show that a similar result holds even in certain cases where the tangent cone is not locally isomorphic to the germ of the singularity. Finally we prove a rigidity result for complete $\partial \bar{\partial }$-exact Calabi-Yau metrics with maximal volume growth. This generalizes a result of Conlon-Hein, which applies to the case of asymptotically conical manifolds.
