The cotangent bundle of a non-uniruled projective manifold is generically nef, due to a theorem of Miyaoka. We show that the cotangent bundle is actually generically ample, if the manifold is of general type and study in detail the case of…

We study the geometry of projective manifolds whose tangent bundles are nef on sufficiently general curves (i.e. the tangent bundle is generically nef) and show that manifolds whose anticanonical bundles are semi-ample have this property.…

In this note we prove that any toric Fano manifold with nef tangent bundle is a product of projective spaces. In particular, it implies that Campana-Peternell conjecture hold for toric manifolds.

We construct examples to show that having nef cotangent bundle is not preserved under finite ramified covers. Our examples also show that a projective manifold with Stein universal cover may not have nef cotangent bundle, disproving a…

We prove that Fano 5-folds with nef tangent bundles are rational homogeneous manifolds.

We describe the structure of regular codimension $1$ foliations with numerically projectively flat tangent bundle on complex projective manifolds of dimension at least $4$. Along the way, we prove that either the normal bundle of a regular…

We show that the tangent bundle of a projective manifold with nef anticanonical class is generically nef. That is, its restriction to a curve cut out by general sufficiently ample divisors is a nef vector bundle. This confirms a conjecture…

We prove that any Fano manifold of coindex three admitting nef tangent bundle is homogeneous.

Let X be a compact K\"ahler manifold such that the anticanonical bundle $-K_X$ is nef. A classical conjecture claims that the Albanese map is submersive. We prove this conjecture if the general fibre is a weak Fano manifold. If X is…

Using recent results of Bayer-Macr\`i, we compute in many cases the pseudoeffective and nef cones of the projectivised cotangent bundle of a smooth projective K3 surface. We then use these results to construct explicit families of smooth…

We prove that smooth Fano 5-folds with nef tangent bundles and Picard numbers greater than one are rational homogeneous manifolds.

We use Totaro's examples of non-semiample nef line bundles on smooth projective surfaces over finite fields to construct nef line bundles for which the first cohomology group cannot be killed by any generically finite covers. This is used…

We classify compact K\"ahler manifolds with semi-positive holomorphic bisectional and big tangent bundles. We also classify compact complex surfaces with semi-positive tangent bundles and compact complex $3$-folds of the form $P(T^*X)$…

S. Kov\'acs proposed a conjecture on rigidity results induced by ample subsheaves of some exterior power of tangent bundles for projective manifolds. We verify the conjecture in the case of second exterior products under a rank condition.…

To any compact K\"ahler manifold $(X, \omega)$ one may associate a bundle of affine spaces $Z_X\rightarrow X$ called a \emph{canonical extension} of $X$. In this paper we prove that if the tangent bundle of $X$ is nef, then the total space…

We prove that Fano n-folds with nef tangent bundle and Picard number greater than n-5 are rational homogeneous manifolds.

We give the first examples of nef line bundles on smooth projective varieties over finite fields which are not semi-ample. More concretely, we find smooth curves on smooth projective surfaces over finite fields such that the normal bundle…

A Fano manifold $X$ with nef tangent bundle is of flag-type if it has the same type of elementary contractions as a complete flag manifold. In this paper we present a method to associate a Dynkin diagram $\mathcal{D}(X)$ with any such $X$,…

Let X be a simply connected projective manifold with nef anticanonical bundle. We prove that X is a product of a rationally connected manifold and a manifold with trivial canonical bundle. As an application we describe the MRC fibration of…

The goal of this short note is to point out that every Fano manifold with a nef tangent bundle possesses an almost K{\"a}hler-Einstein metric, in a weak sense. The technique relies on a regularization theorem for closed positive (1,…
