Projective structures on topological surfaces support the structure of 2d CFTs with a degree of technical simplification. We propose a complex analytic space $\mathcal{P}_g$ biholomorphic to $T^*_{(1,0)} \mathcal{M}_g$ as a candidate moduli…
We show that the description of the holomorphic $\mathbb C \mathrm P^1$-bundle associated to a holomorphic projective structure on a Riemann surface in terms of the principal bundle of projective $2$-frames extends very well to the setting…
For a compact Riemann surface $X$ of any genus $g$, let $L$denote the line bundle $K_{X\times X}\otimes {\cal O}_{X\times X}(2\Delta)$ on $X\times X$, where $K_{X\times X}$ is the canonical bundle of $X\times X$ and $\Delta$ is the diagonal…
This paper is devoted to characterizing complex projective structures defined on Riemann surface orbifolds and giving rise to injective developing maps defined on the monodromy covering of the surface (orbifold) in question. The relevance…
Given an \'etale double covering $\pi\, :\, \widetilde{C}\, \longrightarrow\, C$ of compact Riemannsurfaces with $C$ of genus at least two, we use the Prym variety of the cover to construct canonical projective structures on both…
We formalize the concepts of holomorphic affine and projective structures along the leaves of holomorphic foliations by curves on complex manifolds. We show that many foliations admit such structures, we provide local normal forms for them…
Let ${\mathcal B}_g(r)$ be the moduli space of triples of the form $(X,\, K^{1/2}_X,\, F)$, where $X$ is a compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g$, with $g\, \geq\, 2$, $K^{1/2}_X$ is a theta characteristic on $X$, and $F$ is a…
The aim of this paper and its sequel is to introduce and classify the holonomy algebras of the projective Tractor connection. After a brief historical background, this paper presents and analyses the projective Cartan and Tractor…
Every compact Riemann surface $X$ admits a natural projective structure $p_u$ as a consequence of the uniformization theorem. In this work we describe the construction of another natural projective structure on $X$, namely the Hodge…
The transversal twistor space of a foliation F of an even codimension is the bundle ZF of the complex structures of the fibers of the transversal bundle of F. On ZF, there exists a foliation F' by covering spaces of the leaves of F, and any…
Brunella's classification implies that every smooth foliation on a compact complex surface admits a singular transversely projective structure. However, Biswas and Dumitrescu's recent work shows that certain foliations on compact complex…
Given a compact connected Riemann surface $X$ equipped with an antiholomorphic involution $\tau$, we consider the projective structures on $X$ satisfying a compatibility condition with respect to $\tau$. For a projective structure $P$ on…
This paper investigates the projectivization of real vector bundles over small covers. We first give a necessary and sufficient condition for such a projectivization to be a small cover. Then associated with moment-angle manifolds, we…
Let $E$ be the Whitney sum of complex line bundles over a topological space $X$. Then, the projectivization $P(E)$ of $E$ is called a \emph{projective bundle} over $X$. If $X$ is a non-singular complete toric variety, so is $P(E)$. In this…
There is a canonical identification, due to the author, of a convex real projective structure on an orientable surface of genus g and a pair consisting of a conformal structure together with a holomorphic cubic differential on the surface.…
Classification theory and the study of projective varieties which are covered by rational curves of minimal degrees naturally leads to the study of families of singular rational curves. Since families of arbitrarily singular curves are hard…
We study the set ${\mathcal P}_S$ consisting of all branched holomorphic projective structures on a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g \geq 1$ and with a fixed branching divisor $S:= \sum_{i=1}^d n_i\cdot x_i$, where $x_i \in X$. Under…
Given any compact Riemann surface $C$, there is a canonical meromorphic 2--form $\widehat\eta$ on $C\times C$, with pole of order two on the diagonal $\Delta\, \subset\, C\times C$, constructed in \cite{cfg}. This meromorphic 2--form…
In this paper we consider various notions of positivity for distributions on complex projective manifolds. We start by analyzing distributions having big slope with respect to curve classes, obtaining characterizations of generic projective…
Assuming Hartshorne's conjecture on complete intersections, we classify projective bundles over projective spaces which has a smooth blow up structure over another projective space. Under some assumptions, we also classify projective…
