Title |
Algebraic geometry and projective differential geometry |
Abstract |
What does the local differential geometry of a subvariety of projective space tell us about its global geometry? I will survey results on the rigidity of homogeneous varieties and the Hwang-Mok program for Fano manifolds in the projective setting. |
