We prove that every homotopy class of almost contact structures on a closed 5-dimensional manifold admits a contact structure.

The new class of integrable mappings and chains is introduced. Corresponding (1+2) integrable systems invariant with respect to such discrete transformations are represented in explicit form. Soliton like solutions of them are represented…

We compute almost-complex invariants $h^{p,0}_{\overline\partial}$, $h^{p,0}_{\text{Dol}}$ and almost-Hermitian invariants $h^{p,0}_{\bar\delta}$ on families of almost-K\"ahler and almost-Hermitian $6$-dimensional solvmanifolds. Finally, as…

This paper develops a construction of families of $ U(1)^{n-2} $-invariant special Lagrangian $ n $-folds in $ \mathbb{C}^{n} $, extending the analytic framework introduced by Joyce ($ n = 3 $) to arbitrary dimension. By reducing the…

In a contact manifold (M^5, alpha), we consider almost complex structures J which satisfy, for any vector v in the horizontal distribution, d alpha (v,Jv) = 0. We prove that integral cycles whose approximate tangent planes have the property…

We consider manifolds $M^{2n}$ which admit smooth maps into a connected sum of $S^1\times S^n$ with only finitely many critical points, for $n\in\{2,4,8\}$, and compute the minimal number of critical points.

Invariants of 3-manifolds from a non semi-simple category of modules over a version of quantum sl(2) were obtained by the last three authors in [arXiv:1404.7289]. In their construction the quantum parameter $q$ is a root of unity of order…

The $2n$ dimensional manifold with two mutually commutative operators of differentiation is introduced. Nontrivial multidimensional integrable systems connected with arbitrary graded (semisimple) algebras are constructed. The general…

In 1996/7, J. Bernstein observed that smooth or analytic supermanifolds that mathematicians study are real or (almost) complex ones, while Minkowski superspaces are completely different objects. They are what we call almost real-complex…

Let $(M,I)$ be an almost complex 6-manifold. The obstruction to integrability of almost complex structure (so-called Nijenhuis tensor) maps a 3-dimensional bundle to a 3-dimensional one. We say that Nijenhuis tensor is non-degenerate if it…

We prove some contact analogs of smooth embedding theorems for closed $\pi$-manifolds. We show that a closed, $k$-connected, $\pi$-manifold of dimension (2n + 1) that bounds a $\pi$-manifold, contact embeds in the $(4n-2k+3)$-dimensional…

We study the integrability of a (almost) complex structure calibrated by a symplectic form. We find new sufficent conditions.

In this paper we present some approaches to classification of almost complex structures and to construction of local or formal pseudoholomorphic mapping from one almost complex manifold to another. The corresponding criteria are given in…

In order to look for a well-behaved counterpart to Dolbeault cohomology in D-complex geometry, we study the de Rham cohomology of an almost D-complex manifold and its subgroups made up of the classes admitting invariant, respectively…

We obtain new families of (1,2)-symplectic invariant metrics on the full complex flag manifolds F(n). For n > 4, we characterize n-3 different n-dimensional families of (1,2)-symplectic invariant metrics on F(n). Any of these families…

Assume that there exists a smooth map between two closed manifolds $M^m\to N^k$ with only finitely many cone-like singular points, where $2\leq k\leq m\leq 2k-1$. If $(m,k)\not\in\{(2,2), (4,3), (5,3), (8,5), (16,9)\}$, then $M^m$ admits a…

For a compact almost complex 4-manifold $(M,J)$, we study the subgroups $H^{\pm}_J$ of $H^2(M, \mathbb{R})$ consisting of cohomology classes representable by $J$-invariant, respectively, $J$-anti-invariant 2-forms. If $b^+ =1$, we show that…

We characterize those real flag manifolds that can be endowed with invariant generalized almost complex structures. We show that no $GM_2$-maximal real flag manifolds admit integrable invariant generalized almost complex structures. We give…

In this paper we study almost complex manifolds admitting a quasi-K\"ahler Chern-flat metric (Chern-flat means that the holonomy of the Chern connection is trivial). We prove that in the compact case such manifolds are all nilmanifolds.…

For any integer $n\geq 2$, we construct an infinite family of Stein fillable contact $(4n-1)$-manifolds each of which admits infinitely many pairwise homotopy inequivalent Stein fillings.
