A locally conformally K\"ahler (LCK) manifold is a complex manifold $M$ which has a K\"ahler structure on its cover, such that the deck transform group acts on it by homotheties. Assume that the K\"ahler form is exact on the minimal…
We characterize compact locally conformally K\"ahler (l.c.K.) manifolds under the assumption of a purely conformal, holomorphic circle action. As an application, we determine the structure of the compact l.c.K. manifolds with parallel Lee…
Let (M,J) be a minimal compact complex surface of Kaehler type. It is shown that the smooth 4-manifold M admits a Riemannian metric of positive scalar curvature iff (M,J) admits a KAEHLER metric of positive scalar curvature. This extends…
Any constant-scalar-curvature Kaehler (cscK) metric on a complex surface may be viewed as a solution of the Einstein-Maxwell equations, and this allows one to produce solutions of these equations on any 4-manifold that arises as a compact…
We introduce a class of hermitian metrics with {\em Lee potential}, that generalize the notion of l.c.K. metrics with potential introduced in \cite{ov} and show that in the classical examples of Calabi and Eckmann of complex structures on…
Using toric geometry we give an explicit construction of the compact steady solitons for pluriclosed flow first constructed in arXiv:1802.00170. This construction also reveals that these solitons are generalized K\"ahler in two distinct…
We prove that a compact toric locally conformally K\"ahler manifold which is not K\"ahler admits a toric Vaisman structure, a fact which was conjectured in \cite{mmp}. This is the final step leading to the classification of compact toric…
We consider locally conformal Kaehler geometry as an equivariant (homothetic) Kaehler geometry: a locally conformal Kaehler manifold is, up to equivalence, a pair (K,\Gamma) where K is a Kaehler manifold and \Gamma a discrete Lie group of…
We give an equivalent definition of compact locally conformally hyperk\"ahler manifolds in terms of the existence of a nondegenerate complex two-form with natural properties. This is a conformal analogue of Beauville's theorem stating that…
We study complex surfaces with locally CAT(0) polyhedral Kahler metrics and construct such metrics on CP^2 with various orbifold structures. In particular, in relation to questions of Gromov and Davis-Moussong we construct such metrics on a…
On an almost complex manifold $(M,J)$, a pluricanonical locally conformally almost K\"ahler (LCAK) metric $g$ is induced by a locally conformally symplectic structure $(F,\theta)$ of the first kind, characterized by the fact that $D\theta$…
Given a compact constant scalar curvature Kaehler orbifold, with nontrivial holomorphic vector fields, whose singularities admit a local ALE Kaehler Ricci-flat resolution, we find sufficient conditions on the position of the singular points…
The conformal properties of complex Finsler metrics are studied. We give a characterization of a compact complex Finsler manifold to be globally conformal K\"ahler. The critical points of the total holomorphic curvature and total Ricci…
A compactness theorem is proved for a family of K\"{a}hler surfaces with constant scalar curvature and volume bounded from below, diameter bounded from above, Ricci curvature bounded and the signature bounded from below. Furthermore, a…
We show that a locally Ahlfors 2-regular and locally linearly locally contractible metric surface is locally quasisymmetrically equivalent to the disk. We also discuss an application of this result to the problem of characterizing surfaces…
The K\"ahler rank of compact complex surfaces was introduced by Harvey and Lawson in their 1983 paper on K\"ahler manifolds as a measure of ``k\"alerianity''. Here we give a partial classification of compact complex surfaces of K\"ahler…
We study compact locally conformally K\"ahler (lcK) manifolds which are Calabi--Yau, in the sense that $c_1^{BC}(X)=0$. First of all, we prove that all the known lcK manifolds which are Calabi--Yau are Vaisman. Then we prove that an lcK…
Our main result in this article is a compactness result which states that a noncollapsed sequence of asymptotically locally Euclidean (ALE) scalar-flat K\"ahler metrics on a minimal K\"ahler surface whose K\"ahler classes stay in a compact…
A new construction is presented of scalar-flat Kaehler metrics on non-minimal ruled surfaces. The method is based on the resolution of singularities of orbifold ruled surfaces which are closely related to rank-2 parabolically stable…
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…
