We prove that constant scalar curvature Khler metric adjacent to a fixed Khler class is unique up to isomorphism. The proof is based on the study of a fourth order evolution equation, namely, the Calabi flow, from a new geometric perspective, and on the geometry of the space of Khler metrics.

We prove that the GromovHausdorff compactification of the moduli space of KhlerEinstein Del Pezzo surfaces in each degree agrees with certain algebro-geometric compactification. In particular, this recovers Tians theorem on the existence of KhlerEinstein metrics on smooth Del Pezzo surfaces and classifies all the degenerations of such metrics. The proof is based on a combination of both algebraic and differential geometric techniques.

0. Introduction. Let Mn be a n-dimensional minimally immersed submanifold of M, Q> 1. Throughout this paper M is taken to be one of the simply connected space forms with curvature 1, 0, or-1, ie Mfn+ f sn+ f, Rn+ f, or Hn+ f. Given a point p EM, let rp (x) be the dis-tance function on M, we denote the restriction of rp to M as the extrinsic distance function on M. For any a> 0, we define the extrinsic ball cen-tered at p with radius a by

We introduce and study a geometric heat flow to find Killing vector fields on closed Riemannian manifolds with positive sectional curvature. We study its various properties, prove the global existence of the solution to this flow, discuss its convergence and possible applications, and its relation to the Navier-Stokes equations on manifolds and Kazdan-Warner-Bourguignon-Ezin identity for conformal Killing vector fields. We also provide two new criterions on the existence of Killing vector fields. A similar flow to finding holomorphic vector fields on Khler manifolds will be studied by Li and Liu (2014).
