Twisted Kähler-Einstein metrics on flag varieties

Abstract

In this paper, we describe invariant twisted Kähler-Einstein (tKE) metrics on flag varieties. We also explore some applications of the ideas involved in the proof of our main result to the existence of invariant twisted constant scalar curvature Kähler metrics. Also, we provide a precise description for the greatest Ricci lower bound of an arbitrary Kähler class on a flag variety. By means of this description, we establish some inequalities related to optimal volume upper bounds for Kähler metrics just using tools from Lie theory. Further, we describe the set of tKE metrics for several examples, including full flag varieties, the projectivization of the tangent bundle of ${\mathbb{P}}^{n+1}$, and families of flag varieties with Picard number $2$.
