Since in the proofs of L e m m a t a 6 and 7 a positivity condition is used t h a t is stronger t h a n positivity of w m, we need to strengthen the definition of an astheno-K~hler manifold (beginning of §4).
We therefore propose the following
Definition. Let X be an m-dimensional H e r m i t i a n manifold with H e r m i t i a n metric
"y~ d z ~ d z ~. X is called astheno-K~ihler if
satisfies
w :---- ½i~/a~ d z a A d z ~
0(O~ m-2 = 0.
We t h a n k Lucia Allesandrini and Giovanni BassaneUi for a relevant comment.
