*Title:* KӒHLER-EINSTEIN METRICS WITH LARGE SYMMETRY
*Abstract:*
In 2004, Wang and I found a priori C°-estimates for certain real
Monge-Ampère equations to study Kähler-Einstein metrics on toric
manifolds. This method was later generalized by many people to study
Kähler-Einstein metrics or Kähler-Ricci solitons on G-manifolds,
horosymmetric manifolds, spherical varieties etc. Recently, Tian and I
found a local version of the Wang-Zhu’s estimate to study the
degeneration of Kähler-Ricci flow on such manifolds. This method can be
also used to construct complete Kähler-Ricci solitons on certain
non-compact toric manifolds. In this series of lectures, we will give
four lectures related to the above works as follows.
Lecture 1: Kähler-Einstein metrics on toric manifolds
Lecture 2: Complete Kähler-Ricci solitons on non-compact toric manifolds
Lecture 3: Some fundamental results and volume monotonicity on
Kähler-Ricci flow on Fano manifolds
Lecture 4: Degeneration of Kähler-Ricci flow on Fano G-manifolds
