During this one week summer school, Hans-Joachim Hein (Munster) and Daniele Angella (Firenze) will give series of talks on recent advances on Singular Kahler metrics, and Hermitian geometry respectively. We expect that the audience will consist of advanced graduate students, postdocs and junior faculty working in complex geometry. Both speakers will deliver 4 lectures of 50 minutes, with each lecture accompanied by a problem session. Registration to open soon. This event is part of a special semester on complex geometry at the Renyi Insitute

Daniele Angella: Cohomological properties and Hermitian metrics of complex non-Kähler manifolds

Abstract: the first lectures will provide a survey of the cohomological properties and topological aspects of complex manifolds, as well as canonical metrics on complex manifolds. We will then focus on some analytic problems concerning the geometry of the Chern connection on Hermitian manifolds, such as the existence of metrics with constant Chern-scalar curvature, generalizations of the Kähler-Einstein condition to the non-Kähler setting, the convergence of the Chern-Ricci flow on compact complex surfaces, and the asymptotic behavior of Monge-Ampère volumes of Hermitian metrics in the ddc-class.
