Phase Transition of Kähler–Einstein Metrics via Moment Maps

Abstract

We study the phase transition of Kähler Ricci-flat metrics on some open Calabi–Yau spaces with the help of the images of moment maps of natural torus actions on these spaces.

Keywords

Moment Map / Phase Transition / Kähler–Einstein Space
