Let $(M,J)$ be a $2n$-dimensional almost complex manifold and let $x\in M$. We define the notion of almost complex blow-up of $(M,J)$ at $x$. We prove the existence of almost complex blow-ups at $x$ under suitable assumptions on the almost…

In this paper, we consider the problem of building a conformal boundary, embedding a pseudo-Riamnnian manifold as an open subset of a bigger one. We get first results about conformal maximality. We also show that in dimension $\geq 3$,…

A quaternionic K\"ahler manifold M is called {\it positive} if it has positive scalar curvature. The main purpose of this paper is to prove several connectedness theorems for quaternionic immersions in a quaternionic K\"ahler manifold, e.g.…

We give several explicit examples of compact manifolds with a $1$-parameter family of almost complex structures having arbitrarily small Nijenhuis tensor in the $C^0$-norm. The $4$-dimensional examples possess no complex structure, whereas…

Let K be a compact semi-simple Lie group. We classify K-invariant Kaehler structures on the space Kc/(P,P), where Kc is the complexification of K, P is a parabolic subgroup of Kc, and (P,P) the commutator subgroup. For each Kaehler…

A hyperk\"ahler manifold is defined as a Riemannian manifold endowed with three covariantly constant complex structures that are quaternionically related. A twistor space is characterized as a holomorphic fiber bundle $p: \mathcal{Z}…

We study 5-dimensional Riemannian manifolds that admit an almost contact metric structure. We classify these structures by their intrinsic torsion and review the literature in terms of this scheme. Moreover, we determine necessary and…

We compute almost-complex invariants $h^{p,0}_{\overline\partial}$, $h^{p,0}_{\text{Dol}}$ and almost-Hermitian invariants $h^{p,0}_{\bar\delta}$ on families of almost-K\"ahler and almost-Hermitian $6$-dimensional solvmanifolds. Finally, as…

A cusp-decomposable manifold is a manifold constructed from a finite number of complete, negatively curved, finite volume manifolds and identifying the boundaries of truncated cusps by diffeomorphisms. Using properties of the electric space…

Many interesting geometric structures can be described as regular infinitesimal flag structures, which occur as the underlying structures of parabolic geometries. Among these structures we have for instance conformal structures, contact…

We review the map between hypercomplex manifolds that admit a closed homothetic Killing vector (i.e. `conformal hypercomplex' manifolds) and quaternionic manifolds of 1 dimension less. This map is related to a method for constructing…

This is the second of a series of papers where we study the plurigenera, the Kodaira dimension and the Iitaka dimension on compact almost complex manifolds. By using the pseudoholomorphic pluricanonical map, we define the second version of…

The goal of this article is to investigate nontrivial $m$-quasi-Einstein manifolds globally conformal to an $n$-dimensional Euclidean space. By considering such manifolds, whose conformal factors and potential functions are invariant under…
