In this paper, we revise some results on rigidity and vanishing properties obtained by \textit{Cuong et.al} in \cite{CDS24} on $n$-dimensional totally real minimal submanifolds $M$ immersed in complex space forms $\widetilde{M}^n(c)$, for…

We study integrability of generalized almost contact structures, and find conditions under which the main associated maximal isotropic vector bundles form Lie bialgebroids. These conditions differentiate the concept of generalized contact…

Let M be a simply-connected complete Kahler manifold whose sectional curvature is bounded between two negative numbers. In this paper we prove the existence of non-constant bounded holomorphic functions on M if the complex dimension of M is…

We classify compact manifolds of dimension three equipped with a path structure and a fixed contact form (which we refer to as a strict path structure) under the hypothesis that their automorphism group is non-compact. We use a Cartan…

In this article we conjecture a 4-dimensional characterization of tightness: a contact structure is tight if and only if a slice-Bennequin inequality holds for smoothly embedded surfaces in Yx[0,1]. An affirmative answer to our conjecture…

We relate the positivity of the curvature term in the Weitzenbock formula for the Laplacian on p-forms on a complete manifold to the existence of bounded and $L^2$ harmonic forms. In the case where the manifold is the universal cover of a…

In this article, we construct infinitely many (small Seifert fibred, hyperbolic and toroidal) rational homology $3$-spheres that admit co-orientable taut foliations, but none with vanishing Euler class. In the context of the $L$-space…

We establish rigidity results for holomorphic mappings and plurisubharmonic functions in complex geometry. First, under mild conditions, we show that the gradient of a $\operatorname{U}(1)$-invariant strictly plurisubharmonic function in…

The classical Hadamard three circle theorem is generalized to complete K\"ahler manifolds. More precisely, we show that the nonnegativity of the holomorphic sectional curvature is a necessary and sufficient condition for the three circle…

We approach the question of complexification of the diffeomorphism group of the circle by considering real-analytic maps from the circle into the punctured complex plane with winding number +1. Such complex deformations form an…

Let $L$ be a line bundle on a K3 or Enriques surface. We give a vanishing theorem for $H^1(L)$ that, unlike most vanishing theorems, gives necessary and sufficient geometrical conditions for the vanishing. This result is essential in our…

In this short note, we give examples of binding sums of contact 3-manifolds that do not preserve properties such as tightness or symplectic fillability. We also prove vanishing of the Heegaard Floer contact invariant for an infinite family…

If a closed 3-manifold M supports a closed, nonsingular, irrational 1-form which linearly deforms into contact forms, then M supports a K-contact form. On the 3-torus, a closed nonsingular 1-form deforms linearly into contact forms if and…

Contact round surgery of contact 3-manifolds is introduced in this paper. By using this method, an alternative proof of the existence of a contact structure on any closed orientable 3-manifold is given. It is also proved that any contact…

Compact K\"ahler manifolds classically satisfy the Hard Lefschetz Theorem, which gives strong control on the underlying topology of the manifold. One expects a similar theorem to be true for K\"ahler Lie Algebroids, and we show for a…
