Abstract

Inspired by the work of Lu and Tian (Duke Math J 125:351--387, 2004), Loi et al. address in (Abh Math Semin Univ Hambg 90: 99-109, 2020) the problem of studying those Kähler manifolds satisfying the \(\Delta \)-property, i.e. such that on a neighborhood of each of its points the k-th power of the Kähler Laplacian is a polynomial function of the complex Euclidean Laplacian, for all positive integer k. In particular they conjectured that if a Kähler manifold satisfies the \(\Delta \)-property then it is a complex space form. This paper is dedicated to the proof of the validity of this conjecture.

Notes

  1. Namely a Kähler metric admitting a Kähler potential which depends only on the sum \(|z|^2 = |z_1|^2 + ...+ |z_n|^2\) of the moduli of a local coordinates’ system z.

  2. We are going to use the notation \(\partial _i\) to denote \(\frac{\partial }{\partial z_i}\) and a similar notation for higher order derivatives. We are also going to use Einstein’s summation convention for repeated indices.
