Abstract

In this work, we study the deformation of Hermitian metrics and the respective Chern curvature tensors. By adapting the conformal perturbation method of Aubin and Ehrlich to Hermitian setting, we prove that Hermitian metrics with quasi-positive (resp. quasi-negative) second Chern–Ricci curvature is conformal to a Hermitian metric with positive (resp. negative) second Chern–Ricci curvature.
