Deformations of extremal toric manifolds

Abstract

Let $X$ be a compact toric extremal K\"ahler manifold. Using the work of Sz\'ekelyhidi, we provide a combinatorial criterion on the fan describing $X$ to ensure the existence of complex deformations of $X$ that carry extremal metrics. As an example, we find new CSC metrics on 4-points blow-ups of $\C\P^1\times\C\P^1$.
