We define the Kobayashi quotient of a complex variety by identifying points with vanishing Kobayashi pseudodistance between them and show that if a compact complex manifold has an automorphism whose order is infinite, then the fibers of…

We present some unexpected examples related to the Kobayashi pseudodistance: For an unramified covering, the vanishing of the Kobayashi pseudodistance on the base does not imply the vanishing on the total space. The vanishing of the…

In this paper we extend the notion of the Kobayashi-Royden pseudonorm for almost complex manifolds. Its basic properties known from the complex analysis are preserved in the nonintegrable case as well. The main theorem on coincidence of the…

We describe a family of smooth contractible algebraic surfaces $X$ different from $\C^2$ such that $X$ admits dominant holomorphic maps from $\C^2$ and there is a unique line $E$ in $X$ for which the Kobayashi-Royden pseudometric vanishes…

We study the hyperbolicity properties of moduli spaces of marked hyperk{\"a}hler manifolds along directions corresponding to families having positivity properties for their Hodge bundle. In particular, we show that the Kobayashi…

We prove non-hyperbolicity of primitive symplectic varieties with $b_2 \geq 5$ that satisfy the rational SYZ conjecture. If in addition $b_2 \geq 7$, we establish that the Kobayashi pseudometric vanishes identically. This in particular…

In this article we discuss the geometry of moduli spaces of (1) flat bundles over special Lagrangian submanifolds and (2) deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills bundles over complex submanifolds in Calabi-Yau manifolds. These moduli spaces reflect…

We prove a version of the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow mirror symmetry conjecture for non-compact Calabi-Yau surfaces arising from, on the one hand, pairs $(\check{Y},\check{D})$ of a del Pezzo surface $\check{Y}$ and $\check{D}$ a smooth…

A compact complex manifold is Kobayashi non-hyperbolic if there exists an entire curve on it. Using mirror symmetry we establish that there are (possibly singular) elliptic or rational curves on any Calabi-Yau manifold $X$, whose mirror…

In this paper we prove that every quasi-projective base space $V$ of smooth family of minimal projective manifolds with maximal variation is pseudo Kobayashi hyperbolic, i.e. $V$ is Kobayashi hyperbolic modulo a proper subvariety…

In this paper, we generalize the Kobayashi pseudo-distance to complex manifolds which admit holomorphic bracket generating distributions. The generalization is based on Chow's theorem in sub-Riemannian geometry. Let G be a linear semisimple…

In this paper, we prove the Kobayashi hyperbolicity of the coarse moduli spaces of canonically polarized or polarized Calabi-Yau manifolds in the sense of complex $V$-spaces (a generalization of complex $V$-manifolds in the sense of…

A projective manifold is algebraically hyperbolic if the degree of any curve is bounded from above by its genus times a constant, which is independent from the curve. This is a property which follows from Kobayashi hyperbolicity. We prove…

We prove that every bounded strictly $J$-convex region equipped with the Kobayashi metric is hyperbolic in the sense of Gromov. We apply this result to the study of the dynamics of pseudo-holomorphic maps.

We establish a lower estimate for the Kobayashi-Royden infinitesimal pseudometric on an almost complex manifold $(M,J)$ admitting a bounded strictly plurisubharmonic function. We apply this result to study the boundary behaviour of the…

We prove the classical Nakano vanishing theorem with H\"ormander $L^2$-estimates on a compact K\"ahler manifold using Siu's so called $\partial\dbar$-Bochner-Kodaira method, thereby avoiding the K\"ahler identities completely. We then…

For smooth families with maximal variation, whose general fibers have semi-ample canonical bundle, the generalized Viehweg hyperbolicity conjecture states that the base spaces of such families are of log general type. This deep conjecture…

We prove the Mirror Conjecture for Calabi-Yau manifolds equipped with a holomorphic symplectic form. Such manifolda are also known as complex manifolds of hyperkaehler type. We obtain that a complex manifold of hyperkaehler type is Mirror…

We extend the definition of the Kobayashi pseudodistance to almost complex manifolds and show that its familliar properties are for the most part preserved. We also study the automorphism group of an almost complex manifold and finish with…
