Vortex-type equations on compact Riemann surfaces

Abstract

In this paper, we prove a priori estimates for some vortex-type equations on compact Riemann surfaces. As applications, we recover existing estimates for the vortex bundle Monge-Ampère equation, prove an existence and uniqueness theorem for the Calabi-Yang-Mills equations on vortex bundles and get estimates for J-vortex equation. We prove an existence and uniqueness result relating Gieseker stability and the existence of almost Hermitian Einstein metrics, i.e., a Kobayashi-Hitchin type correspondence. We also prove Kählerness of the negative of the symplectic form which arises in the moment map interpretation of the Calabi-Yang-Mills equations in [9].
