is the connection matrix for the Hermitian connection associated to the metric<br />

on/f/. The curvature matrix is<br />
which, upon setting<br />
and using (4.29), gives<br />

As a check on signs and constants, the holomorphic sectional curvature in the<br />
direction Z1 is the coefficient of 0oa A 0o in qh, which by (4.30) is<br />

The Chern forms of C N- are as usual defined by<br />

Although we shall not need it, the quantities<br />
