Green's function estimates for compact Kähler manifolds and applications

Weiqi Zhang, Yashan Zhang

As on arXiv

Abstract

Recent works of Guo-Phong-Song-Sturm established for compact Kähler manifolds (even for Kähler spaces of specific singularities) a variety of geometric estimates depending on an upper bound of or norms of the volume density but not on any curvature bound, in which a key ingredient is a uniform integral estimate for Green's function. Motivated by their results and further applications, in this paper we shall prove an improved (nearly optimal) integral estimate for Green's function under volume density condition, and then apply it to obtain improved global geometric estimates. For instance, one of our results states that the th eigenvalue of Laplacian operator , where is the complex dimension of the Kähler manifold and depends on and norm of the volume density. Also, our results can be applied to the long-time or volume-noncollapsing finite-time Kähler-Ricci flow on compact Kähler manifolds and to a general Kähler family to further extend previous works of Guo-Phong-Song-Sturm, Guedj-Tô and Vu.
