Kählerian Reduction in Steps

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Symmetry and Spaces

Part of the book series: Progress in Mathematics ((PM,volume 278))

Summary

We study Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups K on Kähler manifolds which extend to a holomorphic action of the complexified group K . For a closed normal subgroup L of K we show that the Kählerian reduction with respect to L is a stratified Hamiltonian Kähler K /L -space whose Kählerian reduction with respect to K/L is naturally isomorphic to the Kählerian reduction of the original manifold with respect to K.
