We construct the deformation functor associated to a couple of morphisms of differential graded Lie algebras, and use it to study the infinitesimal deformations of a holomorphic map of compact complex manifolds. In particular, in the case…

We study a family of 3-dimensional Lorentz manifolds. Some members of the family are 0-curvature homogeneous, 1-affine curvature homogeneous, but not 1-curvature homogeneous. Some are 1-curvature homogeneous but not 2-curvature homogeneous.…

We provide infinitely many examples of pairs of diffeomorphic, non simply connected K\" ahler manifolds of complex dimension three with different Kodaira dimensions. Also, in any possible Kodaira dimension we find infinitely many pairs of…

Real projective structures on $n$-orbifolds are useful in understanding the space of representations of discrete groups into $\mathrm{SL}(n+1, \mathbb{R})$ or $\mathrm{PGL}(n+1, \mathbb{R})$. A recent work shows that many hyperbolic…

Classical affine Lie algebras appear e.g. as symmetries of infinite dimensional integrable systems and are related to certain differential equations. They are central extensions of current algebras associated to finite-dimensional Lie…

We study three-dimensional supersymmetric quiver gauge theories with a non-simply laced global symmetry primarily focusing on framed affine $B_{N}$ quiver theories. Using a supersymmetric partition function on a three sphere, and its…

In this paper, we classify irregular threefolds with numerically trivial canonical divisors in positive characteristic. For such a variety, if its Albanese dimension is not maximal, then the Albanese morphism will induce a fibration which…

In this paper we give a classification of tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals with exactly two equal edges. The tilings are the earth map tilings, $(p,q)$-earth map tilings and their flip modifications, and quadrilateral…

There exists a proper holomorphic mapping between balls of different dimensions such that it does not extend continuously to the boundary. The aim of this paper is to show the same phenomenon occurs for pseudoconvex domains of different…

The aim of the paper is to investigate the rigidity and the deformability of pseudoholomorphic curves in the nearly K{\"a}hler sphere $\mathbb{S}^6,$ among minimal surfaces in spheres. Under various assumptions we describe the moduli space…

We construct special Lagrangian 3-spheres in non-K\"ahler compact threefolds equipped with the Fu-Li-Yau geometry. These non-K\"ahler geometries emerge from topological transitions of compact Calabi-Yau threefolds. From this point of view,…

The edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent polygons, where all edges are straight, have been completely classified. We classify the curvilinear version of the similar triangular tilings, where the edges may not be straight, and…

We construct and study a natural homeomorphism between the moduli space of polynomial cubic differentials of degree d on the complex plane and the space of projective equivalence classes of oriented convex polygons with d+3 vertices. This…

Artstein-Avidan and Milman [Annals of mathematics (2009), (169):661-674] characterized invertible reverse-ordering transforms on the space of lower semi-continuous extended real-valued convex functions as affine deformations of the ordinary…

In this paper we introduce the notion of cofrontal mappings, as the dual objects to frontal mappings, and study their basic local and global properties. Cofrontals are very special mappings and far from generic nor stable except for the…

We study a global theory of affine maximal surfaces with singularities, which are called affine maximal maps and defined by Aledo--Mart\' inez--Mil\' an. In this paper, we define a special subclass of such surfaces other than improper…

Observing the list of compatible second order equations of Absolute Parallelism (AP) found by Einstein and Mayer (they used D=4), we choose the one-parameter class of equations which take on a 3-linear form (when contra-frame density of…

In dimensions congruent to 1 modulo 4, we prove that the cotangent bundle of an exotic sphere which does not bound a parallelisable manifold is not symplectomorphic to the cotangent bundle of the standard sphere. More precisely, we prove…

Basic aspects of the equiaffine geometry of level sets are developed systematically. As an application there are constructed families of $2n$-dimensional nondegenerate hypersurfaces ruled by $n$-planes, having equiaffine mean curvature…

We give a simple general method of construction of affine varieties with infinitely many exotic models. In particular we show that for every d>1 there exists a Stein manifold of dimension d which has uncountably many different structures of…
