Let $\mathcal V$ be a discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic with perfect residue field. Let $X$ be a geometrically connected smooth proper curve over $\mathcal V$. We introduce the notion of constructible convergent…
We classify meromorphic affine connections on compact complex surfaces with algebraic dimension one, extending the work of Inoue,Kobayashi and Ochiai (1981) in the holomorphic case. The motivation is to investigate possible extension of the…
We study compact complex manifolds $M$ admitting a conformal holomorphic Riemannian structure invariant under the action of a complex semi-simple Lie group $G$. We prove that if the group $G$ acts transitively and essentially, then $M$ is…
We study algebraicity and smoothness of fixed point stacks for flat group schemes which have a finite composition series whose factors are either reductive or proper, flat, finitely presented, acting on algebraic stacks with affine,…
We show that if a compact complex surface admits a locally conformally flat metric, then it cannot contain a smooth rational curve of odd self-intersection. In particular, the surface has to be minimal. Then we give a list of possibilities…
We study the connectedness of the moduli space of gauge equivalence classes of flat G-connections on a compact orientable surface or a compact nonorientable surface for a class of compact connected Lie groups. This class includes all the…
We investigate several situations where the local homogeneity of a geometric structure on a dense open subset of a manifold implies the local homogeneity everywhere. This results in a strengthening of the conclusions in Gromov's open-dense…
In this article, we summarize the results on symmetric conformal geometries. We review the results following from the general theory of symmetric parabolic geometries and prove several new results for symmetric conformal geometries. In…
This paper deals essentially with affine or projective transformations of Lie groups endowed with a flat left invariant affine or projective structure. These groups are called flat affine or flat projective Lie groups. Our main results…
In [DM] it was asked whether all flat holomorphic Cartan geometries (G,H) on a complex torus are translation invariant. We answer this affimatively under the assumption that the complex Lie group G is affine. More precisely, we show that…
In this paper, we study a local rigidity property of $\mathbb Z \ltimes_\lambda \mathbb R$ affine action on tori generated by an irreducible toral automorphism and a linear flow along an eigenspace. Such an action exhibits a weak version of…
We study the local geometry of irreducible parabolic geometries admitting strongly essential flows; these are flows by local automorphisms with higher-order fixed points. We prove several new rigidity results, and recover some old ones for…
We investigate the geometric properties of hyperbolic affine flat, affine minimal surfaces in the equiaffine space $\mathbb{A}^3$. We use Cartan's method of moving frames to compute a complete set of local invariants for such surfaces.…
We classify complex compact parallelizable manifolds which admit flat torsion free holomorphic affine connections. We exhibit complex compact manifolds admitting holomorphic affine connections, but no flat torsion free holomorphic affine…
A flat vector bundle on an algebraic variety supports two natural definable structures given by the flat and algebraic coordinates. In this note we show these two structures coincide, subject to a condition on the local monodromy at…
We show that any smooth one-dimensional link in the real projective three-plane is the fixed-point locus of a smooth symplectic surface in the complex projective three-plane which is invariant under complex conjugation. The degree of the…
We describe the holonomy algebras of all canonical connections of homogeneous structures on real hyperbolic spaces in all dimensions. The structural results obtained then lead to a determination of the types, in the sense of Tricerri and…
We study the connectedness locus $\mathcal{N}$ for the family of iterated function systems of pairs of homogeneous affine-linear maps in the plane. We prove this set is regular closed (i.e., it is the closure of its interior) away from the…
We obtain sharp estimates on the connectivity of complex affine hypersurfaces in terms of the decomposition of the defining equation as a sum of weighted homogeneous components relative to some weight system.
We establish a principle of forced geometric irreducibility on product manifolds. We prove that for any product manifold $M=M_1\times M_2$, a cohomologically calibrated affine connection, $\nabla^{\mathcal{C}}$, is necessarily holonomically…
