JOURNAL ARTICLE

Donaldson S, 2012, Kahler metrics with cone singularities along a divisor

We develop some foundations for the study of Kahler-Einstein metrics withcone singularities transverse to a divisor. The main goal is a treatment of thedeformation of the cone angle.

BOOK CHAPTER

Donaldson S, 2010, Calabi-Yau metrics on Kummer surfaces as a model glueing problem

This is an expository paper which aims to give a simple proof of theexistence of Ricci-flat metrics on certain K3 surfaces, as an illustration ofgeneral "glueing" techniques.

JOURNAL ARTICLE

Donaldson S, 2010, Stability, birational transformations and the Kahler-Einstein problem

We define a new notion of "b-stability" for a polarised algebraic variety,adapted to the existence problem for Kahler-Einstein metrics on Fano manifolds.

Bunch RS, Donaldson SK, 2008, Numerical approximations to extremal metrics on toric surfaces

We give some detailed numerical information about extremal metrics on fourdifferent toric surfaces. These are sample of many other cases which can betreated using a computer programme outlined in the paper.

JOURNAL ARTICLE

Donaldson SK, 2008, Kahler geometry on toric manifolds, and some other manifolds with large symmetry

This is an expository article. Among other topics, we discuss the existenceof Kahler-Ricci soliton metrics on toric Fano manifolds, and Kahler-Einsteinmetrics on deformations of the Mukai-Umemura 3-fold

JOURNAL ARTICLE

Donaldson SK, 2008, A generalised Joyce construction for a family of nonlinear partial differential equations

We explain a simple construction of solutions to a family of PDE's in twodimensions which includes that defining zero scalar curvature Kahler metrics,with two Killing fields, and the affine maximal equation.

WORKING PAPER

Donaldson SK, 2007, Nahm's equations and free-boundary problems

This paper is a discussion of relations between some free-boundary problemsand infinite dimensional Lie groups; particularly a version of Nahm's equationsfor the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms in two dimensions.

JOURNAL ARTICLE

Donaldson SK, 2007, A note on the α-invariant of the Mukai-Umemura 3-fold

We give an elementary argument to compute the $\alpha$-invariant of this Fano3-fold, which implies the existence of a Kahler-Einstein metric.

JOURNAL ARTICLE

Donaldson SK, 2007, Lie algebra theory without algebra

This is an expository paper in which we explain how basic, standard, resultsabout simple Lie algebras can be obtained by geometric arguments, followingideas of Cartan, Richardson and others.

JOURNAL ARTICLE

Donaldson SK, 2006, Two-forms on four-manifolds and elliptic equations

We define a general class of elliptic equations for 2-forms on 4-manifolds,of which the complex Monge-Ampere equation is a prototype. We obtain someregularity results and discuss various connections (some speculative) withmodern symplectic 4-manifold theory.

JOURNAL ARTICLE

Donaldson SK, 2006, Extremal metrics on toric surfaces, I

The paper develops a continiuty method for solutions of the Abreu equation,which include extremal metrics on toric surfaces. Results are obtained,assuming a hypothesis (the "M-condition") on the solutions.
