Conjecture on Calabi-energy minimization by Bach-flat Kähler metrics
Conjecture on Calabi-energy minimization by Bach-flat Kähler metrics
Let be a compact complex surface, and let be a Bach-flat Kähler metric, meaning a Kähler metric compatible with whose Bach tensor vanishes. Let denote the Calabi energy on the space of Kähler metrics on . Calabi-minimizer conjecture. The metric is an absolute minimizer of the Calabi energy on the space of all -compatible Kähler metrics on . Bach-flat Kähler metrics are critical points of the Calabi energy, and the known examples are absolute minima; whether every such metric is an absolute minimizer remains open.
