be compact. In this case Yau's proof of the Calabi conjecture implies that admits a Kähler metric with vanishing Ricci curvature, and this may be taken as an equivalent definition of Calabi-Yau.

Calabi-Yau manifolds have found use in string theory and mirror symmetry, where they are used to model the extra 6 dimensions
