We explicitly classify all pairs $(M,G)$, where $M$ is a connected complex manifold of dimension $n\ge 2$ and $G$ is a connected Lie group acting properly and effectively on $M$ by holomorphic transformations and having dimension $d_G$…

Let $\rho_0$ be an action of a Lie group on a manifold with boundary that is transitive on the interior. We study the set of actions that are topologically conjugate to $\rho_0$, up to smooth or analytic change of coordinates. We show that…

Beauville surfaces are a class of complex surfaces defined by letting a finite group $G$ act on a product of Riemann surfaces. These surfaces possess many attractive geometric properties several of which are dictated by properties of the…

A holomorphic foliation $\mathscr{F}$ on a compact complex manifold $M$ is said to be an $\mathscr{L}$-foliation if there exists an action of a complex Lie group $G$ such that the generic leaf of $\mathscr{F}$ coincides with the generic…

This is an expository paper which presents the holomorphic classification of rational complex surfaces from a simple and intuitive point of view, which is not found in the literature. Our approach is to compare this classification with the…

We determine all holomorphically separable complex manifolds of dimension $p+q$ which admits a smooth envelope of holomorphy such that the general indefinite unitary group of size $p+q$ acts effectively by holomorphic transformations. Also…

We classify compact 2-connected homogeneous spaces with the same rational cohomology as a product of spheres. This classification relies on spectral sequences, homotopy theory, and representation theory. We then apply this classification to…

We classify the affine connections on compact orientable surfaces for which the pseudogroup of local isometries acts transitively. We prove that such a connection is either torsion-free and flat, the Levi-Civita connection of a Riemannian…

We develop the basic topological properties of compact polygons, i.e. of compact topological Tits buildings of rank two. It is proved that the Coxeter diagram of such a building is always crystallographic, that is, compact connected n-gons…

In this paper we study holomorphic actions of the complex multiplicative group on complex manifolds around a singular (fixed) point. We prove linearization results for the germ of action and also for the whole action under some conditions…

We provide a classification of complex projective surfaces with a holomorphic foliation whose group of birational symetries is infinite.

We discuss our recent results on the existence and classification problem of complex and Kaehler structures on compact solvmanifolds. In particular, we determine in this paper all the complex surfaces which are diffeomorphic to compact…

We construct highly singular projective curves and surfaces defined by invariants of primitive complex reflection groups.

We use tools from combinatorial group theory in order to study actions of three types on groups acting on a curve, namely the automorphism group of a compact Riemann surface, the mapping class group acting on a surface (which now is allowed…
