Arnaud Beauville: The decomposition theorem: the smooth case
Channel: Centre International de Rencontres Mathématiques
Date: 2020-04-10

The decomposition theorem gives some insight on the structure of compact Kähler manifolds with trivial first Chern class. In the first part of the talk I will try to summarize the history of the problem, from the Calabi conjecture to its proof by Yau; in the second part I will explain why the result is an easy consequence of Yau's theorem.
