Let X be a compact K\"ahler manifold such that the universal cover admits a compactification. We conjecture that the fundamental group is almost abelian and reduce it to a classical conjecture of Iitaka.

We study the curvature of metric spaces and branched covers of Riemannian manifolds, with applications in topology and algebraic geometry. Here curvature bounds are expressed in terms of the CAT(k) inequality. We prove a general CAT(k)…

This paper is a sequel to our studies \cite{ZZ} and \cite{YZZ} on Bismut K\"ahler-like manifolds, or {\em BKL} manifolds for short. We will study the structural theorems for {\em BKL} manifolds, prove a conjecture raised in \cite{YZZ} which…

We give a sharp upper bound for the area of a minimal two-sphere in a three-manifold (M,g) with positive scalar curvature. If equality holds, we show that the universal cover of (M,g) is isometric to a cylinder.

We classify $n$-dimensional geometric graph manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature, and first show that if $n>3$, the universal cover splits off a codimension 3 Euclidean factor. We then proceed with the classification of the…

A manifold M is locally conformally Kahler (LCK) if it admits a Kahler covering with monodromy acting by holomorphic homotheties. For a compact connected group G acting on an LCK manifold by holomorphic automorphisms, an averaging procedure…

We prove that a complete K\"ahler manifold with holomorphic curvature bounded between two negative constants admits a unique complete K\"ahler-Einstein metric. We also show this metric and the Kobayashi-Royden metric are both uniformly…

We show that if the universal cover of a closed smooth manifold admitting a metric with non-negative Ricci curvature is formal, then the manifold itself is formal. We reprove a result of Fiorenza-Kawai-L\^e-Schwachh\"ofer, that closed…

Let $f\colon M^{2n}\to\mathbb{R}^{2n+4}$ be an isometric immersion of a Kaehler manifold of complex dimension $n\geq 5$ into Euclidean space with complex rank at least $5$ everywhere. Our main result is that, along each connected component…

Let X be a K3 surface and M a smooth and projective moduli space of stable sheaves on X of Mukai vector v. A universal sheaf U over X x M induces an integral transform F from the derived category D(X) of coherent sheaves on X to that on M.…

In this work, we investigate compact K\"ahler manifolds with non-negative or quasi-positive mixed curvature coming from a linear combination of the Ricci and holomorphic sectional curvature, which covers various notions of curvature…

Let $M$ be a complete Riemannian manifold and suppose $p\in M$. For each unit vector $v \in T_p M$, the $\textit{Jacobi operator}$, $\mathcal{J}_v: v^\perp \rightarrow v^\perp$ is the symmetric endomorphism, $\mathcal{J}_v(w) = R(w,v)v$.…
