Abstract

We study several questions involving relative Ricci-flat Kähler metrics for families of log Calabi-Yau manifolds. Our main result states that if p : W (X; B) → Y is a Kähler fiber space such that (Xy B/Xy) is generically klt, KX=Y + B is relatively trivial and p* (m(KX=Y + B)) is Hermitian flat for some suitable integer m, then p is locally trivial. Motivated by questions in birational geometry, we investigate the regularity of the relative singular Ricci-flat Kähler metric corresponding to a family p : (X; B) → Y of klt pairs (Xy; By) such that k(KXy + By) = 0. Finally, we disprove a folkore conjecture by exhibiting a one-dimensional family of elliptic curves whose relative (Ricci-)flat metric is not semipositive.
