Donaldson–Tian–Yau conjecture for constant-scalar-curvature Kähler metrics

Let (X,L)(X,L) be a polarised projective scheme, where LL is an ample line bundle, and let c1(L)c_1(L) denote its first Chern class. A polarised scheme is KK-polystable when the Donaldson–Futaki invariant is nonnegative for every test configuration and vanishes only for product test configurations. A Kähler metric in c1(L)c_1(L) is cscK if it has constant scalar curvature.

Donaldson–Tian–Yau conjecture. (X,L)(X,L) admits a cscK metric in c1(L)c_1(L) if and only if it is KK-polystable.

This is the general cscK analogue of the Yau–Tian–Donaldson correspondence. The conjecture is stated as well known in the source and is noted there to have been solved when L=KXL=-K_X, namely for Fano manifolds; the general polarised case remains open.
