Asymptotically Calabi metrics and weak Fano manifolds

Hans-Joachim Hein, Song Sun, Jeffrey Viaclovsky and Ruobing Zhang

Geometry & Topology 29 (2025) 2547–2569
Abstract

We show that any asymptotically Calabi manifold which is Calabi–Yau can be compactified complex analytically to a weak Fano manifold. Furthermore, the Calabi–Yau structure arises from a generalized Tian–Yau construction on the compactification, and we prove a strong uniqueness theorem. We also give an application of this result to the surface case.
