We describe a family of open subsets $M_A$ of the Moore plane, one for each subset $A$ of $\mathbb{R}$. Each of these subsets is a separable contractible (Hausdorff) 2-manifold, which is nonmetrizable if $A$ is uncountable. The collection…

We classify these threefolds, which are the ones such that their universal cover is not compact and not covered by positive-dimensional compact analytic subsets. We show that these threefolds have nonnegative Kodaira dimension, and that…

Let $S$ be a closed oriented surface of genus $g\geq 2$. Fix an arbitrary non-elementary representation $\rho\colon\pi_1(S)\to {\rm SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ and consider all marked (complex) projective structures on $S$ with holonomy $\rho$. We…

Let X be a connected family of complex Fano manifolds. We show that if some fiber is the product of two manifolds of lower dimensions, then so is every fiber. Combining with previous work of Hwang and Mok, this implies immediately that if a…

We classify all smooth compact connected K\"ahler threefolds that admit the structure of a $C^\infty$-fiber bundle over the circle. This generalizes the work of Hao and Schreieder in the projective case. In contrast to the projective case,…

Hironaka's concept of characteristic polyhedron of a singularity has been one of the most powerful and fruitful ideas of the last decades in singularity theory. In fact, since then combinatorics have become a major tool in many important…

We consider a natural generalisation of symmetric Nakayama algebras, namely, symmetric special biserial algebras with at most one non-uniserial indecomposable projective module. We describe the basic algebras explicitly by quiver and…

We suggest a general framework for compactifing quasi-projective Lagrangian fibrations of geometric origin by holomorphic symplectic varieties. This framework includes a compactification criterion, which we then apply to various fibrations…

We construct holomorphically varying families of Fatou-Bieberbach domains with given centres in the complement of any compact polynomially convex subset $K$ of $\mathbb C^n$ for $n>1$. This provides a simple proof of the recent result of…

We introduce a natural nondegeneracy condition for Poisson structures, called holonomicity, which is closely related to the notion of a log symplectic form. Holonomic Poisson manifolds are privileged by the fact that their deformation…

A degree 1 non-negative graded super manifold equipped with a degree 1 vector field Q satisfying [Q, Q]=1, namely a so-called NQ-1 manifold is, in plain differential geometry language, a Lie algebroid. We introduce a notion of fibration for…

We study holomorphic symplectic manifolds which are fibred by abelian varieties. This structure is a higher dimensional analogue of an elliptic fibration on a K3 surface. We investigate when a holomorphic symplectic manifold is fibred in…

Almost-complex and hyper-complex manifolds are considered in this paper from the point of view of complex analysis and potential theory. The idea of holomorphic coordinates on an almost-complex manifold $(M,\mathbf{J}%)$ is suggested by D.…

Bosio generalized the construction by Meersseman of a family of non-algebraic compact complex manifolds of any dimension. We establish a link between Bosio's construction and GIT quotients. We show that his generalization parallels exactly…

R. Zimmer proved that, on a compact manifold, a foliation with a dense leaf, a suitable leafwise Riemannian symmetric metric and a transverse Lie structure has arithmetic holonomy group. In this work we improve such result for totally…

We introduce the concept of a branched holomorphic Cartan geometry. It generalizes to higher dimension the definition of branched (flat) complex projective structure on a Riemann surface introduced by Mandelbaum. This new framework is much…

An old theorem of Weil and Kodaira says that for a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ there is a closed logarithmic $1$-form with residue divisor $D$ if and only if $D$ is homologous to zero in $H_{2n-2}(X,\mathbb C)$. In the first part of this…

We revisit Brunella's proof of the fact that Kato surfaces admit locally conformally K\" ahler metrics, and we show that it holds for a large class of higher dimensional complex manifolds containing a global spherical shell. On the other…

Let $\pi: \mathcal{X}\rightarrow \Delta$ be a holomorphic family of compact complex manifolds over an open disk in $\mathbb{C}$. If the fiber $\pi^{-1}(t)$ for each nonzero $t$ in an uncountable subset $B$ of $\Delta$ is Moishezon and the…

We study non-Kaehler manifolds with trivial logarithmic tangent bundle. We show that each such manifold arises as a fiber bundle with a compact complex parallelizable manifold as basis and a toric variety as fiber.
