We prove that any holomorphic vector bundle admitting a holomorphic connection, over a compact K\"ahler Calabi-Yau manifold, also admits a flat holomorphic connection. This addresses a particular case of a question asked by Atiyah and…

We investigate compact complex manifolds endowed with SKT or balanced metrics. In each case we define a new functional whose critical points are proved to be precisely the K\"ahler metrics, if any, on the manifold. As general manifolds of…

In this paper we give a criterion for a deformation of a hermitian vector bundle to be Ricci-flat. As an application we show that on a K\"ahler manifold, every deformation of a vector bundle can be made Ricci-flat whereas on some Hopf…

We review the theory of quaternionic Kahler and hyperkahler structures. Then we consider the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold M with a metric connection D (with torsion) and with its well estabilished canonical complex structure.…

We investigate the holonomy group of a linear metric connection with skew-symmetric torsion. In case of the euclidian space and a constant torsion form this group is always semisimple. It does not preserve any non-degenerated 2-form or any…

Given a knot K and an irreducible metabelian SL(n,C) representation we establish an equality for the dimension of the first twisted cohomology. In the case of equality, we prove that the representation must have finite image and that it is…

We extend the Gallot-Tanno Theorem to closed pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. It is done by showing that if the cone over a manifold admits a parallel symmetric $(0,2)-$tensor then it is Riemannian. Applications of this result to the existence…

We give a classification of irreducible metabelian representations from a knot group into SL(n,C) and GL(n,C). If the homology of the n-fold branched cover of the knot is finite, we show that every irreducible metabelian SL(n,C)…

We prove the Hodge symmetry type result on the Dolbeault cohomology of Oeljeklaus-Toma manifolds with values in the direct sum of holomorphic line bundles. Consequently, we show the vanishing and non-vanishing of Dolbeault cohomology of…

We show that Hermitian metrics with vanishing holomorphic curvature on compact complex manifolds with pseudoeffective canonical bundle are conformally balanced. Pluriclosed metrics with vanishing holomorphic curvature on compact K\"ahler…

We investigate four-dimensional Heterotic solitons, defined as a particular class of solutions of the equations of motion of Heterotic supergravity on a four-manifold $M$. Heterotic solitons depend on a parameter $\kappa$ and consist of a…

An SKT metric is a Hermitian metric on a complex manifold whose fundamental 2-form $\omega$ satisfies $\de\debar\omega=0$. Streets and Tian introduced in \cite{sttiPlur} a Ricci-type flow that preserves the SKT condition. This flow uses the…

We construct complete noncompact Riemannian metrics with $G_2$-holonomy on noncompact orbifolds that are $\Bbb R^3$-bundles with the twistor space $\mathcal{Z}$ as a spherical fiber.

We prove a sharp Ohsawa-Takegoshi-Manivel type extension result for twisted holomorphic sections of singular hermitian line bundles over almost Stein manifolds. We establish as corollaries some extension results for pluri-twisted…

In this paper, we prove that the harmonicity of a metric on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold is equivalent to the harmonicity of both its Sasaki (resp. horizontal and complete) lift metric on the tangent bundle and its Sasaki lift metric on the…

It has been conjectured by Fino and Vezzoni that a compact complex manifold admitting both a compatible SKT and a compatible balanced metric also admits a compatible K\"ahler metric. Using the shear construction and classification results…

In this paper, a survey of the recent results about the classification of the connected holonomy groups of the Lorentzian manifolds is given. A simplification of the construction of the Lorentzian metrics with all possible connected…

Generalizing work of Haydys and Hitchin, we prove the existence of a hyperholomorphic line bundle on certain hyperk\"ahler manifolds that do not necessarily admit an $S^1$ action. As examples, we consider the moduli space of (non-strongly)…

Let $M$ be a compact hyperkahler manifold with maximal holonomy (IHS). The group $H^2(M, R)$ is equipped with a quadratic form of signature $(3, b_2-3)$, called Bogomolov-Beauville-Fujiki (BBF) form. This form restricted to the rational…

A locally conformally K\"ahler (LCK) manifold is a manifold which is covered by a K\"ahler manifold, with the deck transform group acting by homotheties. We show that the search for LCK metrics on Oeljeklaus-Toma manifolds leads to a (yet…
