Spectral Gårding Elliptic Equations

Source abstract

We study spectral Gårding elliptic equations on compact Kähler manifolds. Smooth solvability is equivalent to the existence of a smooth representative in the admissible domain. The concavity theorem for ideal Gårding polynomials gives a fixed concave formulation to which Székelyhidi's second-order argument applies in every degree $2\le d\le n$, extending Lin's top-degree solvability theorem. Combined with the numerical criteria of Fu--Li--Zhang--Zhang and Chen--Nie--Xu, this yields a Nakai--Moishezon type criterion for solvability on compact Kähler manifolds. A solution converts the local ideal Gårding structure into a global Lorentzian structure. Its mixed derivatives give a strict nonlinear Hodge--Riemann hierarchy from the degree of the equation down to degree two, and the homogenization of the intersection polynomial is Lorentzian in nef class directions. Numerical criteria then produce explicit Hodge--Riemann classes, Lefschetz isomorphisms in bidegree $(1,1)$, and weighted Hodge-index inequalities.
