I will discuss the problem of understanding the long-time behavior of Ricci flow on a compact Kähler manifold, assuming that a solution exists for all positive time. Inspired by an analogy with the minimal model program in algebraic geometry, Song and Tian posed several conjectures which describe this behavior. I will report on recent work (joint with Hein and Lee) which confirms these conjectures.

Holomorphic symplectic manifolds (aka hyperkahler manifolds) are complex analogues of real symplectic manifolds. They have a rich geometric structure, though few compact examples are known. In this talk I will describe attempts to construct and classify holomorphic symplectic manifolds that also admit a holomorphic fibration. In particular, we will consider examples in four dimensions that are fibred by abelian surfaces known as Prym varieties.

Gravitational instantons are non-compact Calabi--Yau metrics with L^2 bounded curvature and are categorized into six types. I will describe three projects on gravitational instantons including: (a) Fredholm theory and deformation of the ALH* type; (b) non-collapsing degeneration limits of ALH* and ALH types; (c) existence of stable non-holomorphic minimal spheres in some ALF types. These three projects utilize geometric microlocal analysis in different singular settings. Based on works joint with Rafe Mazzeo, Yu-Shen Lin and Sidharth Soundararajan.
