We provide a proof that the classes of finitely generated Kleinian groups and of three-manifold groups are quasi-isometrically rigid.

In this work, we prove that every complex contact structure gives rise to a distinguished type of almost contact metric 3-structure. As an application of our main result, we provide several new examples of manifolds which admit taut contact…

Suppose $G$ is a connected complex Lie group and $H$ is a closed complex subgroup such that $X := G/H$ is Kaehler and the codimension of the top non-vanishing homology group of $X$ with coefficients in $\mathbb Z_2$ is less than or equal to…

Through the means of an alternative and less algebraic method, an explicit expression for the isometry groups of the six-dimensional homogeneous nearly K\"ahler manifolds is provided.

We construct some families of complex structures on compact manifolds by means of normal almost contact structures (nacs) so that each complex manifold in the family has a non-singular holomorphic flow. These families include as particular…

In this paper we will show the following result: Let $\mathcal{N} $ be a complete (noncompact) connected orientable Riemannian three-manifold with nonnegative scalar curvature $S \geq 0$ and bounded sectional curvature $ K_{s} \leq K $.…

The main goal of this paper is to prove that a connected bounded geometry complete Kahler manifold which has at least 3 filtered ends admits a proper holomorphic mapping onto a Riemann surface. This also provides a different proof of the…

We show that there are Haken 3-manifolds whose fundamental groups do not satisfy the engulfing property. In particular one can construct a pi_1-injective immersion of a surface into a graph manifold which does not factor through any proper…

A solvmanifold is a compact differentiable manifold M on which a connected solvable Lie group G acts transitively. As the main result, we will see, applying a result of Arapura and Nori on solvable Kaehler groups and some of the author's…

A Heegaard diagram for a 3-manifold is regarded as a pair of simplexes in the complex of curves on a surface and a Heegaard splitting as a pair of subcomplexes generated by the equivalent diagrams. We relate geometric and combinatorial…

For a stratified symplectic space, a suitable concept of stratified Kaehler polarization, defined in terms of an appropriate Lie-Rinehart algebra, encapsulates Kaehler polarizations on the strata and the behaviour of the polarizations…

We show that if the lower central series of the fundamental group of a closed oriented $3$-manifold stabilizes then the maximal nilpotent quotient is a cyclic group, a quaternion $2$-group cross an odd order cyclic group, or a Heisenberg…

We construct locally homogeneous 6-dimensional nearly K\"ahler manifolds as quotients of homogeneous nearly K\"ahler manifolds $M$ by freely acting finite subgroups of $Aut_0(M)$. We show that non-trivial such groups do only exists if…

We classify uniruled compact K\"ahler threefolds whose groups of bimeromorphic selfmaps do not have Jordan property.

We construct compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds with totally geodesic boundary, such that the closed 3-pseudomanifolds obtained by coning off the boundary components are negatively curved and contain locally convex subspaces whose fundamental…

We consider nearly K\"ahler 6-manifolds with effective 2-torus symmetry. The multi-moment map for the $T^2$-action becomes an eigenfunction of the Laplace operator. At regular values, we prove the $T^2$-action is necessarily free on the…

We show that if $N$, an open connected $n$-manifold with finitely generated fundamental group, is $C^{2}$ foliated by closed planes, then $\pi_{1}(N)$ is a free group. This implies that if $\pi_{1}(N)$ has an Abelian subgroup of rank…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold. The set $\cha(X)$ of one-dimensional complex valued characters of the fundamental group of $X$ forms an algebraic group. Consider the subset of $\cha(X)$ consisting of those characters for which the…

Let $f\colon M\to N$ be a proper map between two aspherical compact orientable 3-manifolds with empty or toroidal boundary. We assume that $N$ is not a closed graph-manifold. Suppose that $f$ induces an epimorphism on fundamental groups. We…

We extend to compact K\"ahler manifolds some classical results on linear representation of fundamental groups of complex projective manifolds. Our approach based on an interversion lemma for fibrations with tori versus general type…
