We prove a Gamma-convergence result for a family of bending energies defined on smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ equipped with a director field. The energies strongly penalize the deviation of the director from the surface unit normal and…

In this article, we study some properties of deformation invariance of the Gamma-dimension (defined for X a compact k\"ahler manifold). This birational invariant is defined as the codimension of the maximal compact subvarieties in the…

We show that compact K\"ahler manifolds have the rational cohomology ring of complex projective space provided a weighted sum of the lowest three eigenvalues of the K\"ahler curvature operator is positive. This follows from a more general…

In this short note, we prove that on a compact K\"ahler variety $X$ with log terminal singularities and $c_1(X)=0$, any singular Ricci-flat K\"ahler metric has orbifold singularities in restriction to the orbifold locus of $X$.

We point out how some recent developments in the theory of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics can be used to clarify the existence issue for such metrics in the special case of geometrically ruled complex surfaces.

In this paper, we generalize the Gauduchon metrics on a compact complex manifold and define the $\gamma_k$ functions on the space of its hermitian metrics.

Given a non-K\"ahler Calabi-Yau orbifold with a finite family of isolated singularities endowed with a Chern-Ricci flat balanced metric, we show, via a gluing construction, that all its crepant resolutions admit Chern-Ricci flat balanced…

We continue to develop our method for effectively computating the special K\"ahler geometry on the moduli space of Calabi-Yau manifolds. We generalize it to all polynomial deformations of Fermat hypersurfaces.

Using Seiberg-Witten theory, it is shown that any Kaehler metric of constant negative scalar curvature on a compact 4-manifold M minimizes the L^2-norm of scalar curvature among Riemannian metrics compatible with a fixed decomposition…

We introduce a new method to prove lower estimates for the approximation error of general linear operators with smooth range in terms of classical moduli of smoothness and related $K$-functionals. In addition, we explicitly show how to…

A rotational modulator (RM) gamma-ray imager is capable of obtaining significantly better angular resolution than the fundamental geometric resolution defined by the ratio of detector diameter to mask-detector separation. An RM imager…

It is classically known that closed geodesics on a compact Riemann surface with a metric of negative curvature strictly minimize length in their free homotopy class. We'd like to generalize this to Lagrangian submanifolds in K\"ahler…

One of effective ways to solve the equivalence problem and describe moduli spaces for real submanifolds in complex space is the normal form approach. In this survey, we outline some normal form constructions in CR-geometry and formulate a…

We consider the moduli space of the extremal K\"ahler metrics on compact manifolds. We show that under the conditions of two-sided total volume bounds, $L^{n\over2}$-norm bounds on $\Riem$, and Sobolev constant bounds, this Moduli space can…

In this paper, we define generalized symmetric derivations on K\"{a}hler modules. We give the relationships between the projective dimensions of $\Omega^{(1)}(R/k)$ and $\Omega^{(2)}(R/k)$ by using the symmetric derivation.We then give some…

This paper proposes an original Riemmanian geometry for low-rank structured elliptical models, i.e., when samples are elliptically distributed with a covariance matrix that has a low-rank plus identity structure. The considered geometry is…

In this paper, metric reduction in generalized geometry is investigated. We show how the Bismut connections on the quotient manifold are obtained from those on the original manifold. The result facilitates the analysis of generalized…

This paper is concerned with the existence of metrics of constant Hermitian scalar curvature on almost-K\"ahler manifolds obtained as smoothings of a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler orbifold, with $A_1$ singularities. More precisely,…

We find constraints on the extent to which O'Neill's horizontal curvature equation can be used to create positive curvature on the base space of a Riemannian submersion. In particular, we study when K. Tapp's theorem on Riemannian…
