We introduce a new approach to constructing derived deformation groupoids, by considering them as parameter spaces for strong homotopy bialgebras. This allows them to be constructed for all classical deformation problems, such as…

We consider the Segre embedding of the product $\mathbb{C}P^p\times\mathbb{C}P^q$ into $\mathbb{C}P^{p+q+pq}$ and study the biharmonicity of $M^p\times\mathbb{C}P^q$ and $M^p_1\times M^q_2$ as submanifolds of $\mathbb{C}P^{p+q+pq}$, where…

Minimal submanifolds constitute a central area within the realm of differential geometry, due to their many applications in various branches of physics. In this thesis we will employ a recent result of S. Gudmundsson and T.J. Munn to…

The notions of bienergy of a smooth mapping and of biharmonic map between Riemannian manifolds are extended to the case when the domain is Finslerian. We determine the first and the second variation of the bienergy functional, the equations…

We construct orbifolds with quasitoric boundary and show that they have stable almost complex structure. We show that a quasitoric orbifold is complex cobordant to finite disjoint copies of complex orbifold projective spaces. Finally some…

In this work we use the method of eigenfamilies to construct explicit complex-valued proper $p$-harmonic functions on the compact real Grassmannians. We also find proper $p$-harmonic functions on the real flag manifolds which do not descend…

For fixed large genus, we construct families of complete immersed minimal surfaces in R3 with four ends and dihedral symmetries. The families exist for all large genus and at an appropriate scale degenerate to the plane.

Several characterizations of complex ellipsoids among convex bodies in Cn, in terms of their sections and projections are proved. Characterizing complex symmetry in similar terms is an important tool.

Biharmonic and conformal-biharmonic maps are two fourth-order generalizations of the well-studied notion of harmonic maps in Riemannian geometry. In this article we consider maps into the Euclidean sphere and investigate a geometric…

We provide conditions under which an isometric immersion of a (warped) product of manifolds into a space form must be a (warped) product of isometric immersions.

We survey what is known about various special types of submanifolds of contact manifolds and discuss their role in the development of contact geometry.

We investigate a special kind of contraction of symmetric spaces (respectively, of Lie triple systems), called homotopy. In this first part of a series of two papers we construct such contractions for classical symmetric spaces in an…

We find geometric conditions on a four-dimensional almost Hermitian manifold under which the almost complex structure is a harmonic map or a minimal isometric imbedding of the manifold into its twistor space.

The source of these notes is a series of lectures given at the CIMPA's summer school "Recent Topics in Geometric Analysis".

We construct Riemannian manifolds with completely integrable geodesic flows, in particular various nonhomogeneous examples. The methods employed are a modification of Thimm's method, Riemannian submersions and connected sums.

We consider two categories related to symplectic manifolds: 1. Objects are symplectic manifolds and morphisms are symplectic embeddings. 2. Objects are symplectic manifolds endowed with compatible almost complex structure and morphisms are…

We prove some results which give sufficient conditions so that pointwise approximation of negative plurisubharmonic functions on complex varieties by continuous plurisubharmonic ones is possible.

We introduce different classical characteristics used to regularize a subharmonic function and compare them. As an application we give a complete proof of a useful characterization of the modulus of continuity of such functions in terms of…

The aim of this paper is to present the first examples of compact, simply connected holomorphically pseudosymmetric Kahler manifolds.

We settle two problems of reconstructing a biholomorphic type of a manifold. In the first problem we use graphs associated to Riemann surfaces of a particular class. In the second one we use the semigroup structure of analytic endomorphisms…
