TLDR
In this paper, a conjecture relating GIT stability of a polarized algebraic variety to the existence of a Kahler metric of constant scalar curvature was shown to hold for reductive algebraic varieties.
Abstract
G. Tian and S.K. Donaldson formulated a conjecture relating GIT stability of a polarized algebraic variety to the existence of a Kahler metric of constant scalar curvature. In [D3] Donaldson partially confirmed it in the case of projective toric varieties. In this paper we extend Donaldson’s results and computations to a new case, that of reductive varieties.

Kähler-Einstein metrics with positive scalar curvature

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the existence of Kahler-Einstein metrics implies the stability of the underlying Kahler manifold in a suitable sense, which disproves a long-standing conjecture that a compact KG admits KG metrics if it has positive first Chern class and no nontrivial holomorphic vector fields.
