A notion of an algebroid - a generalization of a Lie algebroid structure is introduced. We show that many objects of the differential calculus on a manifold M associated with the canonical Lie algebroid structure on T^M can be obtained in…

It is conjectured that the Dolbeault cohomology of a complex nilmanifold $X$ is computed by left-invariant forms. We prove this under the assumption that $X$ is suitably foliated in toroidal groups and deduce that the conjecture holds in…

We study the topology of the boundary manifold of a regular neighborhood of a complex projective hypersurface. We show that, under certain Hodge theoretic conditions, the cohomology ring of the complement of the hypersurface functorially…

For any orbifold M, we explicitly construct a simplicial complex S(M) from a given triangulation of the `coarse' underlying space together with the local isotropy groups of M. We prove that, for any local system on M, this complex S(M) has…

We study the Bott-Chern cohomology of complex orbifolds obtained as quotient of a compact complex manifold by a finite group of biholomorphisms.

This survey presents some recent results by the authors and Polterovich on the topological properties of ruled symplectic manifolds. The bundle M \to P \to B that is associated with a ruled manifold has the group of Hamiltonian…

We describe moduli spaces of invariant generalized complex structures and moduli spaces of invariant generalized K\"ahler structures on maximal flag manifolds under $B$-transformations. We give an alternative description of the moduli space…

We introduce and analyze a new geometric structure on topological surfaces generalizing the complex structure. To define this so called higher complex structure we use the punctual Hilbert scheme of the plane. The moduli space of higher…

In this note, we give a motivic characterization of the integral cohomology of dual boundary complexes of smooth quasi-projective complex algebraic varieties. As a corollary, the dual boundary complex of any stably affine space (of positive…

We study almost complex structures with lower bounds on the rank of the Nijenhuis tensor. Namely, we show that they satisfy an $h$-principle. As a consequence, all parallelizable manifolds and all manifolds of dimension $2n\geq 10$…

We define an invariant, which we call surface-complexity, of closed 3-manifolds by means of Dehn surfaces. The surface-complexity of a manifold is a natural number measuring how much the manifold is complicated. We prove that it fulfils…

We study cohomological properties of complex manifolds. In particular, under suitable metric conditions, we extend to higher dimensions a result by A. Teleman, which provides an upper bound for the Bott-Chern cohomology in terms of Betti…

Using recently introduced Debord-Skandalis Blup's groupoids we study index theory for a compact foliated manifold with boundary inducing a foliation in its boundary. For this we consider first a blup groupoid whose Lie algebroid has…

In this article, we will explore the fundamental concepts, including various basic concepts on $d$-complex manifolds, along with several differential operators and examine the relationships between them. A $d$-K\"ahler manifold is a…

A survey of some results and open questions related to the following algebraic invariants of compact complex manifolds, that can be obtained from differential forms: cohomology groups, Chern classes, rational homotopy groups, and higher…

For an orbifold M we define a homology group, called t-singular homology group t-H_q(M), which depends not only on the topological structure of the underlying space of M, but also on the orbifold structure of M. We prove that it is a…

We study smooth bundles over surfaces with highly connected almost parallelizable fiber $M$ of even dimension, providing necessary conditions for a manifold to be bordant to the total space of such a bundle and showing that, in most cases,…

This paper is concerned with the derivation and properties of differential complexes arising from a variety of problems in differential equations, with applications in continuum mechanics, relativity, and other fields. We present a…

On a generalized complex manifold there is an associated definition of a generalized holomorphic bundle, introduced by Gualtieri. This notion in the case of an ordinary complex structure yields an object which we call a co-Higgs bundle and…

We construct a simply-connected compact complex non-K\"ahler manifold satisfying the $\partial\bar\partial$-Lemma, and endowed with a balanced metric. To this aim, we were initially aimed at investigating the stability of the property of…
