A finite-time singularity of Calabi flow
Disproves Chen's smooth long-time existence conjecture for Calabi flow by constructing a smooth -invariant Kähler metric on whose flow develops a finite-time singularity. The metric lies in the Fubini–Study class, so the failure occurs even in a class containing a constant-scalar-curvature metric.
