"Positively Curved
Einstein Metrics in Dimension 4"
By
Abstract: The
famous Frankel Conjecture in complex geometry, which was proved by Siu and Yau in the 1981, asserts
that the only compact complex n-manifold which admits a Kahler metric
of positive (bi)sectional curvature is
the complex projective n-space. In this talk, we prove this conjecture in complex dimension 2 under
weaker hypotheses: Namely, a compact
complex "surface", which admits a "conformally
Kahler" metric g of "positive
orthogonal holomorphic bisectional curvature" is
to the complex projective plane.
