From the structure equations<br />

and we infer that<br />

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 />

(4.30) 0o A 0o + 8 0 k,ro[coOor A 0o.<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 />

as it should be.<br />

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

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

are the coefficients in the expansion of the volume of the tube of radius r around<br />
