Abstract

Extremal Kähler metrics were introduced by E. Calabi as best representatives of a given Kähler class of a complex compact manifold, these metrics are critical points of the L2 norm of the scalar curvature function. In this paper, we report some joint works with C. Arezzo and M. Singer concerning the construction of extremal Kähler metrics on blow ups at finitely many points of Kähler manifolds which already carry an extremal Kähler metric. In particular, we give sufficient conditions on the number and locations of the blown up manifold points for the blow up to carry an extremal Kähler metric.
