These are lecture notes of a course held at IMPA, Rio de Janiero, in september 2010: the purpose was to present recent results on Kobayashi hyperbolicity in complex geometry. Our ultimate goal is to describe the results obtained on…
In this paper we examine different problems regarding complete intersection varieties of high degree in a complex projective space. First we show how one can deduce hyperbolicity for generic complete intersection of high multidegree and…
These are notes based on a series of talks that the author gave at the "Interactions between hyperbolic geometry and quantum groups" conference held at Columbia University in June of 2009.
This is a recent conference report on the Kobayashi Problem on hyperbolicity of generic projective hypersurfaces. As an appendix, a (non-updated) author's survey article of 1992 on the same subject, published in an edition with a limited…
In this paper, we study a variation of a conjecture of Debarre on positivity of cotangent bundles of complete intersections. We establish the ampleness of Schur powers of cotangent bundles of generic complete intersections in projective…
These notes grew out of a mini-course given from May 13th to May 17th at UQAM in Montreal during a workshop on Diophantine Approximation and Value Distribution Theory. We start with an overview of Lang-Vojta's conjectures on…
This survey article mainly addresses to graduate students and young researchers in complex geometry willing to enter the beautiful word of connections between curvature and Kobayashi hyperbolicity. It is a detailed account of a recent…
The paper is a contribution to the conjecture of Kobayashi that the complement of a generic curve in the projective plane is hyperbolic, provided the degree is at least five. Previously the authors treated the cases of two quadrics and a…
We study the hyperbolicity of the log variety $(\mathbb{P}^n, X)$, where $X$ is a very general hypersurface of degree $d\geq 2n+1$ (which is the bound predicted by the Kobayashi conjecture). Using a positivity result for the sheaf of…
The paper is a contribution of the conjecture of Kobayashi that the complement of a generic plain curve of degree at least five is hyperbolic. The main result is that the complement of a generic configuration of three quadrics is hyperbolic…
We provide a geometric condition ensuring that a very general element of a complete linear system on an abelian variety is Kobayashi hyperbolic. Some related conjectures are also given.
The following is an extended version of a talk given at the Kinosaki Symposium on Algebraic Geometry in October 2011. The aim is to give an overview of product-quotient surfaces, the results that have been proven so far in collaboration…
In this work, we investigate the positivity of logarithmic and orbifold cotangent bundles along hyperplane arrangements in projective spaces. We show that a very interesting example given by Noguchi (as early as in 1986) can be pushed…
Inspired by the computation of the Kodaira dimension of symmetric powers Xm of a complex projective variety X of dimension n $\ge$ 2 by Arapura and Archava, we study their analytic and algebraic hyperbolic properties. First we show that Xm…
The Green-Griffiths-Lang conjecture stipulates that for every projective variety $X$ of general type over ${\mathbb C}$, there exists a proper algebraic subvariety of $X$ containing all non constant entire curves $f:{\mathbb C}\to X$. Using…
These are mostly expository notes based on the course of lectures on arithmetic invariants of hyperbolic manifolds given at the workshop associated with the final "Volume Conference," held at Columbia University, June 2009. Some new results…
These notes provide an overview of various notions of hyperbolicity for varieties of log general type from the viewpoint of both arithmetic and birational geometry. The main results are based on our paper entitled "Hyperbolicity and…
The main goal of this work is to prove that a very generic surface of degree at least 21 in complex projective 3-dimensional space is hyperbolic in the sense of Kobayashi. This means that every entire holomorphic map $f:{\Bbb C} \to X$ to…
We study the algebraic hyperbolicity of certain subvarieties of homogeneous varieties, building on the techniques introduced by Coskun-Riedl, Yeong and Mioranci. This generalizes earlier known results for hypersurfaces to higher…
In this article we study the injective Kobayashi metric on complex surfaces.
