Uniform RC-positivity of tangent bundles
Abstract
In this paper, we prove that every rationally connected projective manifold admits a smooth uniformly RC-positive Hermitian metric on its tangent bundle, answering Yang's question and giving a characterization of rational connectedness by uniform RC-positivity. We find an example to show that RC-positivity alone does not characterize rational connectedness. We also prove that uniform RC-positivity of the tangent bundle is preserved under blow-ups along connected smooth centers on compact complex manifolds. In the non-Kähler setting, we construct such metrics on all Hopf and Kato surfaces and obtain classification results for compact complex surfaces.
