Let f: X -> Y be a smooth family of canonically polarized complex varieties over a smooth base. Generalizing the classical Shafarevich hyperbolicity conjecture, Viehweg conjectured that Y is necessarily of log general type if the family has…

Sommese has conjectured a classification of smooth projective varieties X containing, as an ample divisor, a P^d-bundle Y over a smooth variety Z. This conjecture is known if d>1, if dim(X)<5, or if Z admits a finite morphism to an Abelian…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a small category, and suppose that we are given a full subcategory $\mathcal{U}$ such that every object of $\mathcal{S}$ can be embedded into some object of $\mathcal{U}$ in the same way as every quasi-projective…

Let $f:X\to S$ be an extremal contraction from a threefolds with terminal singularities onto a surface (so called Mori conic bundle). We study some particular cases of such contractions: quotients of usual conic bundles and index two…

Let $\pi\cln X\to \Delta^m$ be a proper smooth K\"ahler morphism from a complex manifold $X$ to the unit polydisc $\Delta^m$. Suppose the fibers over the complement of a proper analytic subset are biholomorphic to a fixed projective…

We discuss the local freeness and the numerical semipositivity of direct images of relative pluricanonical bundles for surjective morphisms between smooth projective varieties with connected fibers. We give a desirable semipositivity…

In this paper we show that a uniruled manifold with a split tangent bundle admits almost holomorphic fibrations that are related to the splitting. We analyse these fibrations in detail in several special cases, this yields new results about…

We define an algebro-geometric model for the space of rational maps from a smooth curve X to an algebraic group G, and show that this space is homologically contractible. As a consequence, we deduce that the moduli space Bun(G) of G-bundles…

Using representations of vertex operator algebras, we describe the line bundles on a wide range of contractions of $\overline{\rm{M}}_{0,n}$, the moduli space of stable $n$-pointed rational curves, by proving a stronger version of the…

We show that Lang's hyperbolic and function version conjectures hold for surfaces $S$ of general type having a fibration of general type onto a curve $C$. The notion of multiplicity used is natural, but not classical, which leds to orbifold…

We prove a cohomological splitting result for Hamiltonian fibrations over enumeratively rationally connected symplectic manifolds As a key application, we prove that the cohomology of a smooth, projective family over a smooth (stably)…

In this work, we show that for a certain class of threefolds in positive characteristics, rational-chain-connectivity is equivalent to supersingularity. The same result is known for K3 surfaces with elliptic fibrations. And there are…

The semistable minimal model program is a special case of the minimal model program concerning 3-folds fibred over a curve and birational morphisms preserving this structure. We classify semistable divisorial contractions which contract the…

Let $L$ be a (semi)-positive line bundle over a Kahler manifold, $X$, fibered over a complex manifold $Y$. Assuming the fibers are compact and non-singular we prove that the hermitian vector bundle $E$ over $Y$ whose fibers over points $y$…

We present a pair of smooth fiber bundles over the circle with a common $4$-dimensional fiber with the following properties: (1) their total spaces are diffeomorphic to each other; (2) they are isomorphic to each other as topological fiber…

Let $X$ be an irreducible smooth complex projective variety. Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. We define the notion of Lie algebroid valued connection on holomorphic principal $G$--bundles on $X$, and study their basic…

We consider the problem of comparing t-structures under the derived McKay correspondence and for tilting equivalences. We relate the t-structures using certain natural torsion theories. As an application, we give a criterion for rationality…

Complex contact manifolds arise naturally in differential geometry, algebraic geometry and exterior differential systems. Their classification would answer an important question about holonomy groups. The geometry of such manifold $X$ is…

Let $M$ be a fibered 3-manifold with multiple boundary components. We show that the fiber structure of $M$ transforms to closely related transversely oriented taut foliations realizing all rational multislopes in some open neighborhood of…

For any group $G$ of self homotopy equivalences of the finite nilpotent complex $X$, acting nilpotently on its homology, and for any nilpotent subcomplex $A$, we prove that the universal fibration $$ X \longrightarrow B(*,{\rm…
