We introduce three functionals $\\Phi_P$ related to Griffiths, Nakano and dual Nakano positivity respectively. They can be used to define new concepts of volume for the vector bundle $E$, by means of generalized Monge-Amp\\`ere integrals of $\\Phi_P(\\Theta_{E,h})$, where $\\Theta_{E,h}$ is the Chern curvature tensor of $(E,h)$. These volumes are shown to satisfy optimal Chern class inequalities. We also prove that the functionals $\\Phi_P$ give rise in a natural way to elliptic differential systems of Hermitian-Yang-Mills type for the curvature, in such a way that the related $P$-positivity threshold of $E\\otimes(\\det E)^t$, where $t>-1/{\\rm rank} E$, can possibly be investigated by studying the infimum of exponents $t$ for which the Yang-Mills differential system has a solution.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2022-02-03T08:59:10.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "holomorphic vector bundle", "curvature tensor", "monge-ampère functionals", "satisfy optimal chern class inequalities", "dual nakano positivity" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
