The underlying complex structure of an ALE K\"ahler manifold is exhibited as a resolution of a deformation of an isolated quotient singularity. As a consequence, there exist only finitely many diffeomorphism types of minimal ALE K\"ahler…
Four geometric conditions on a geodesic metric space, which are stronger variants of classical conditions characterizing hyperbolicity, are proved to be equivalent. In the particular case of the Cayley graph of a finitely generated group,…
We construct left invariant special K\"ahler structures on the cotangent bundle of a flat pseudo-Riemannian Lie group. We introduce the twisted cartesian product of two special K\"ahler Lie algebras according to two linear representations…
The pro-algebraic fundamental group can be understood as a completion with respect to finite-dimensional non-commutative algebras. We introduce finer invariants by looking at completions with respect to Banach and C*-algebras, from which we…
We describe a sufficient condition for the localization functor to be a categorical equivalence. Using this result we explain how to simplify the test for projectivity. This leads to a description of the strictly simple algebras which are…
We study group algebras for compact groups in the category of real and complex weakly complete vector spaces. We also show that the group algebra is a quotient of the weakly complete universal enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra of the…
This paper studies a class of Abelian varieties that are of $\GL_2$-type and with isogenous classes defined over a number field $k$. We treat the cases when their endomorphism algebras are either (1) a totally real field $K$ or (2) a…
All compact K\"ahler, or even $\partial\bar\partial$-manifolds, are rationally formal. Not all of them are strongly formal. Yet some of them are: For complete smooth complex toric varieties and homogeneous compact K\"ahler manifolds we show…
We survey recent developments which led to the proof of the Benson-Gordon conjecture on K\"ahler quotients of solvable Lie groups. In addition we prove that the Albanese morphism of a K\"ahler manifold which is a homotopy torus is a…
We classify smooth projective surfaces that are quotients of abelian surfaces by finite groups.
This article is devoted to examples of (orbifold) K\"ahler groups from the perspective of the so-called Shafarevich conjecture on holomorphic convexity. It aims at pointing out that every quasi-projective complex manifold with an…
A representation of a finitely generated group into the projective general linear group is called convex co-compact if it has finite kernel and its image acts convex co-compactly on a properly convex domain in real projective space. We…
We examine subgroups of locally compact groups that are continuous homomorphic images of connected Lie groups and we give a criterion for being such an image. We also provide a new characterisation of Lie groups and a characterisation of…
A $p$-K\"ahler structure on a complex manifold of complex dimension $n$ is given by a $d$-closed transverse real $(p,p)$-form. In the paper we study the existence of $p$-K\"ahler structures on compact quotients of simply connected Lie…
We obtain a homological characterisation of virtually free-by-cyclic groups among groups that are hyperbolic and virtually compact special. As a consequence, we show that many groups known to be coherent actually possess the stronger…
We investigate the abelianization of a Lie algebroid and provide a necessary and sufficient condition for its existence. We also study the abelianization of groupoids and provide sufficient conditions for its existence in the smooth…
We classify simple groups that act by birational transformations on compact complex K\"ahler surfaces. Moreover, we show that every finitely generated simple group that acts non-trivially by birational transformations on a projective…
Every fibration of a projective hyper-K\"ahler fourfold has fibers which are Abelian surfaces. In case the Abelian surface is a Jacobian of a genus two curve, these have been classified by Markushevich. We study those cases where the…
We define the abelian fundamental group with modulus of a regular flat scheme over a discrete valuation ring, taking into account wild ramification along a divisor. Our definition provides a mixed-characteristic analogue of the abelian…
Given a Lie algebra $L$ graded by a group $G$, if $L$ is does not contain orthogonal graded ideals and $G$ is generated by the support of $L$, then $G$ is an abelian group.
