In this paper, the deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills equation on a holomorphic line bundle over a compact Kahler manifold X is studied, and it is shown that this equation is the Euler-Lagrange equation for a positive functional and that solutions are unique global minimizers.
Abstract
Let L be a holomorphic line bundle over a compact Kahler manifold X. Motivated by mirror symmetry, we study the deformed Hermitian–Yang–Mills equation on L, which is the line bundle analogue of the special Lagrangian equation in the case that X is Calabi–Yau. We show that this equation is the Euler-Lagrange equation for a positive functional, and that solutions are unique global minimizers. We provide a necessary and sufficient criterion for existence in the case that X is a Kahler surface. For the higher dimensional cases, we introduce a line bundle version of the Lagrangian mean curvature flow, and prove convergence when L is ample and X has non-negative orthogonal bisectional curvature.

On The Ricci Curvature of a Compact Kahler Manifold and the Complex Monge-Ampere Equation, I*

TL;DR: In this paper, the Ricci form of some Kahler metric is shown to be closed and its cohomology class must represent the first Chern class of M. This conjecture of Calabi can be reduced to a problem in non-linear partial differential equation.
