Solutions to scalar curvature equations have the property that all possible blow-up points are isolated, at least in low dimensions. This property is commonly used as the first step in the proofs of compactness. We show that this result…

Deformation theory of complex manifolds is a classical subject with recent new advances in the noncompact case using both algebraic and analytic methods. In this note, we recall some concepts of the existing theory and introduce new notions…

In this paper, we consider a class of balanced manifolds and provide a proof of a problem proposed by Silva-that compact complex manifolds that are Kahler outside an analytic subset are balanced. Next, as a special case of this theorem, we…

We continue our study on Hermitian manifolds that are {\em Bismut torsion parallel,} or {\em BTP} for brevity, which means that the Bismut connection has parallel torsion tensor. For $n\geq 3$, BTP metrics can be balanced (and…

Coassociative 4-folds are a particular class of 4-dimensional submanifolds which are defined in a 7-dimensional manifold M with a G_2 structure given by a `positive' differential 3-form, sometimes called G_2-form. Assuming that a G_2-form…

Main topic of the paper is the determination, for a compact complex manifold $M$, of the class of manifolds $X$ which are deformation equivalent to it. If $M$ is a complex torus, then also $X$ is so. After describing the structure of…

In this note, we study a degenerate twisted J-flow on compact K\"ahler manifolds. We show that it exists for all time, it is unique and converges to a weak solution of a degenerate twisted J-equation. In particular, this confirms an…

In this paper, we characterize Riemannian 4-manifold in terms of its almost Hermitian twistor spaces $(Z,g_t,\mathbb{J}_{\pm})$. Some special metric conditions (including Balanced metric condition, first Gauduchon metric condition) on…

In a paper (math.DG/0403528) we obtained explicit examples of Moishezon twistor spaces of some compact self-dual four-manifolds admitting a non-trivial Killing field, and also determined their moduli space. In this note we investigate…

In our previous works on deformation limits of projective and Moishezon manifolds, we introduced and made crucial use of the notion of strongly Gauduchon metrics as a reinforcement of the earlier notion of Gauduchon metrics. Using direct…

The problem of minimal distortion bending of smooth compact embedded connected Riemannian $n$-manifolds $M$ and $N$ without boundary is made precise by defining a deformation energy functional $\Phi$ on the set of diffeomorphisms…

The starting point of this note is our recent paper with Laza and Sacc\`a on the construction of deformations of O'Grady's $10$-dimensional manifolds as compactifications of intermediate Jacobian fibrations associated to cubic fourfolds.…

Let (M,g) a compact Riemannian $n$-dimensional manifold with umbilic boundary. It is well know that, under certain hypothesis, in the conformal class of g there are scalar-flat metrics that have the boundary of M as a constant mean…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of toric special weak Fano manifolds, which have only special primitive crepant contractions. We study the structure of them, and in particular completely classify smooth toric special weak Fano…

In this article, we consider Cayley deformations of a compact complex surface in a Calabi--Yau four-fold. We will study complex deformations of compact complex submanifolds of Calabi--Yau manifolds with a view to explaining why complex and…

We study spin structures on orbifolds. In particular, we show that if the singular set has codimension greater than 2, an orbifold is spin if and only if its smooth part is. On compact orbifolds, we show that any non-trivial twistor spinor…

Examples are given to show that some compact contractible 4-manifolds can be knotted in the 4-sphere. It is then proved that any finitely presented perfect group with a balanced presentation is a knot group for an embedding of some…

A general theorem on the existence of natural torsion-free affine connections on a complete family of compact complex submanifolds in a complex manifold is proved. Applications to twistor theory are discussed.

We prove an existence result for the Poisson equation on non-compact Riemannian manifolds satisfying weighted Poincar\'e inequalities outside compact sets. Our result applies to a large class of manifolds including, for instance, all…

In this article we study compact K\"ahler manifolds $X$ admitting non-singular holomorphic vector fields with the aim of extending to this setting the classical birational classification of projective varieties with tangent vector fields.…
