Introduction to Kähler Geometry

Prof. Roberto Mossa, Prof. Giovanni Placini
Università degli Studi di Cagliari

Abstract

This introductory course covers some of the fundamental concepts of Kähler geometry, with particular attention to almost complex and complex manifolds, the properties of Hermitian metrics, and Kähler metrics. Starting from the basics of differential geometry, we will explore the structure of almost complex and complex manifolds. Subsequently, we will delve into the properties of Hermitian metrics, focusing on the definition and characteristics that define Kähler metrics, which play a key role in integrating the complex structure with the Riemannian one. Through concrete examples and applications, students will gain a deep understanding of these concepts, preparing them for advanced studies in Kähler geometry.
