We prove that constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (cscK) manifolds with transcendental cohomology class are K-semistable, naturally generalising the situation for polarised manifolds. Relying on a very recent result by R. Berman, T. Darvas…
We prove that the rational cohomology $H^i(\mathcal{T}_g;\mathbf{Q})$ of the moduli space of trigonal curves of genus $g$ is independent of $g$ in degree $i<\lfloor g/4\rfloor.$ This makes possible to define the stable cohomology ring as…
We establish combinatorial versions of various classical systolic inequalities. For a smooth triangulation of a closed smooth manifold, the minimal number of edges in a homotopically non-trivial loop contained in the $1$-skeleton gives an…
We construct certain operations on stable moduli spaces and use them to compare cohomology of moduli spaces of closed manifolds with tangential structure. We obtain isomorphisms in a stable range provided the $p$-adic valuation of the Euler…
We prove a uniform local non-collapsing volume estimate for a large family of singular metrics in the big cohomology classes, which are K\"ahler on an open Euclidean subset of the manifold. The key ingredient is a generalization of a mixed…
Given $k\in \mathbb{R},$ $v,$ $D>0,$ and $n\in \mathbb{N},$ let $\left\{ M_{\alpha }\right\} _{\alpha =1}^{\infty }$ be a Gromov-Hausdorff convergent sequence of Riemannian $n$--manifolds with sectional curvature $\geq k,$ volume $>v,$ and…
In this short note, we will prove a volume stability theorem which says that if an n-dimensional toric manifold $M$ admits a $\mathbb{T}^n$ invariant K\"ahler metric $\omega$ with Ricci curvature no less than 1 and its volume is close to…
New constructions in group homology allow us to manufacture high-dimensional manifolds with controlled simplicial volume. We prove that for every dimension bigger than 3 the set of simplicial volumes of orientable closed connected manifolds…
Let $F\in\mathrm{Diff}(\mathbb{C}^2,0)$ be a germ of a holomorphic diffeomorphism and let $\Gamma$ be an invariant formal curve of $F$. Assume that the restricted diffeomorphism $F|_{\Gamma}$ is either hyperbolic attracting or rationally…
Let $M$ be a $10$-dimensional closed oriented smooth manifold. Set $$\mathcal{D}_{M} := \{ x \in H^{2}(M; \Z/2) \mid x^{2} + w_{2}(M) x \in \rho_{2} ( TH^{4}(M;\Z) ) \}.$$ Suppose that $H_{1}(M;\Z)=0$ and $\mathcal{D}_{M} \subset \rho_{2}(…
We prove that group homology of the diffeomorphism group of $\#^g S^n \times S^n$ as a discrete group is independent of $g$ in a range, provided that $n>2$. This answers the high dimensional version of a question posed by Morita about…
Let C_n(M) be the configuration space of n distinct ordered points in M. We prove that if M is any connected orientable manifold (closed or open), the homology groups H_i(C_n(M); Q) are representation stable in the sense of [Church-Farb].…
We establish a homotopy-theoretic description of the homology of stable moduli spaces of $(2n+1)$-dimensional manifold triads $(N, \partial^h N, \partial^v N)$ with fixed $\partial^v N$, whenever $n \geq 3$ and $(N, \partial^h N)$ is…
We consider the geometric inverse problem of determining a closed Riemannian manifold from measurements of the heat kernel in an open subset of the manifold. In this paper we analyze the stability of this problem in the class of…
We prove homological stability for sequences of "oriented configuration spaces" as the number of points in the configuration goes to infinity. These are spaces of configurations of n points in a connected manifold M of dimension at least 2…
We identify the cohomology of the stable classifying space of homotopy automorphisms (relative to an embedded disk) of connected sums of $S^k \times S^l$, where $3 \le k < l \le 2k - 2$. The result is expressed in terms of Lie graph complex…
We give an upper bound for the number of compact essential orientable non-isotopic surfaces, with Euler characteristic at least some constant $\chi$, properly embedded in a finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifold $M$, closed or cusped. This…
For a topological space $X$ we study continuous maps $f : X\to \mathbb R^m$ such that images of every pairwise distinct $k$ points are affinely (linearly) independent. Such maps are called affinely (linearly) $k$-regular embeddings. We…
We show that a polarised manifold with a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metric and discrete automorphisms is K-stable. This refines the K-semistability proved by S. K. Donaldson.
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…
