In this paper, we study several types of geometric problems related to the Ricci curvature on noncompact complex manifolds, such as the existence of K\"{a}hler-Einstein metrics on complete K\"{a}hler manifolds with negative Ricci curvature,…
We establish quaternionic contact (qc) versions of the so called Almost Schur Lemma, which give estimations of the qc scalar curvature on a compact qc manifold to be a constant in terms of the norm of the $[-1]$-component and the norm of…
The Schwarz--Pick lemma is a fundamental result in complex analysis. It is well-known that Yau generalized it to the higher dimensional manifolds by applying his maximum principle for complete Riemannian manifolds. Jeffres obtained Schwarz…
In this paper, by introducing a notion of local quasi holomorphic frame, we obtain a curvature formula for almost Hermitian manifolds which is similar to that of Hermitian manifolds. Moreover, as applications of the curvature formula, we…
In this paper, we are able to prove an analogy of the Calabi-Yau theorem for complete Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature which are aspherical at infinity. The key tool is an existence result for arbitrarily large bounded…
We examine the class of compact Hermitian manifolds with constant holomorphic sectional curvature. Such manifolds are conjectured to be K\"ahler (hence a complex space form) when the constant is non-zero and Chern flat (hence a quotient of…
In this article, we classify all the Hermitian metrics on a complex product manifold with nonpositive holomorphic bisectional curvature. It is a generalization of a result by Zheng.
The study of quasi-K\"ahler Chern-flat almost Hermitian manifolds is strictly related to the study of anti-bi-invariant almost complex Lie algebras. In the present paper we show that quasi-K\"ahler Chern-flat almost Hermitian structures on…
In this paper, we prove that, a compact complex manifold $X$ admits a smooth Hermitian metric with positive (resp. negative) scalar curvature if and only if $K_X$ (resp. $K_X^{-1}$) is not pseudo-effective. On the contrary, we also show…
We prove that a Kahler supermetric on a supermanifold with one complex fermionic dimension admits a super Ricci-flat supermetric if and only if the bosonic metric has vanishing scalar curvature. As a corollary, it follows that Yau's theorem…
In our previous work, we introduced a special type of Hermitian metrics called {\em torsion-critical,} which are non-K\"ahler critical points of the $L^2$-norm of Chern torsion over the space of all Hermitian metrics with unit volume on a…
We prove that any complete non-compact K\"ahler surface with positive sectional curvature is biholomorphic to $\mathbb{C}^2$, establishing the two dimensional case of the weaker form of Yau's uniformisation conjecture. In contrast to all…
We complete the classification of compact Hermitian manifolds admitting a flat Gauduchon connection. In particular, we establish a conjecture of Yang and Zheng, showing that apart from the cases of a flat Chern or Bismut connection, such…
We study 4-dimensional second-Chern-Einstein almost-Hermitian manifolds. In the compact case, we observe that under a certain hypothesis the Riemannian dual of the Lee form is a Killing vector field. We use that observation to describe…
In this paper, we get an inequality in terms of holomorphic sectional curvature of complex Finsler metrics. As applications, we prove a Schwarz Lemma from a complete Riemannian manifold to a complex Finsler manifold. We also show that a…
In this paper, we derive a partial result related to a question of Yau: "Does a simply-connected complete K\"ahler manifold M with negative sectional curvature admit a bounded non-constant holomorphic function?" Main Theorem. Let $M^{2n}$…
In this note, we consider the case where the condition ``constant near infinity" in the definition of $\Lambda^2$-enlargeable manifolds is replaced by the condition ``locally constant near infinity" and prove that a $\Lambda^2$-enlargeable…
Almost-isometries are quasi-isometries with multiplicative constant one. Lifting a pair of metrics on a compact space gives quasi-isometric metrics on the universal cover. Under some additional hypotheses on the metrics, we show that there…
A long-standing conjecture in complex geometry says that a compact Hermitian manifold with constant holomorphic sectional curvature must be K\"ahler when the constant is non-zero and must be Chern flat when the constant is zero. The…
Let $(\M^n, g)$ be a $n$ dimensional, complete ( compact or noncompact) Riemannian manifold whose Ricci curvature is bounded from below by a constant $-K \le 0$. Let $u$ be a positive solution of the heat equation on $\M^n \times (0,…
