In this note we show that if a projective manifold admits a K\"ahler metric with negative holomorphic sectional curvature then the canonical bundle of the manifold is ample. This confirms a conjecture of the second author.

On a compact K\"ahler manifold, we introduce a notion of almost nonpositivity for the holomorphic sectional curvature, which by definition is weaker than the existence of a K\"ahler metric with semi-negative holomorphic sectional curvature.…

In this work we consider compact K\"ahler manifolds with non-positive mixed curvature which is a "convex combination" of Ricci curvature and holomorphic sectional curvature. We show that in this case, the canonical line bundle is nef.…

We show that if a compact complex manifold admits a K\"ahler metric whose holomorphic sectional curvature is everywhere non positive and strictly negative in at least one point, then its canonical bundle is positive.

We prove that a smooth complex projective threefold with a K\"ahler metric of negative holomorphic sectional curvature has ample canonical line bundle. In dimensions greater than three, we prove that, under equal assumptions, the nef…

A recent theorem of Diverio--Trapani and Wu--Yau asserts that a compact K\"ahler manifold with a K\"ahler metric of quasi-negative holomorphic sectional curvature is projective and canonically polarized. This confirms a long-standing…

The Wu--Yau theorem asserts that a compact K\"ahler manifold with negative holomorphic sectional curvature admits a cohomologous metric with negative Ricci curvature. We introduce a conjectural positive analog of the Wu--Yau theorem and…

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…

In recent papers Wu-Yau, Tosatti-Yang and Diverio-Trapani, used some natural differential inequalities for compact K\"ahler manifolds with quasi negative holomorphic sectional curvature to derive positivity of the canonical bundle. In this…

We study holomorphic geometric structures on non-K\"ahler compact complex manifolds with trivial canonical line bundle. For Vaisman Calabi-Yau manifolds we prove that all holomorphic geometric structures of affine type on them are locally…

Motivated by the recent work of Wu and Yau on the ampleness of canonical line bundle for compact K\"ahler manifolds with negative holomorphic sectional curvature, we introduce a new curvature notion called $\textbf{real bisectional…

In this paper, we prove that a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ with the nef anti-canonical bundle $-K_{X}$ admits a locally trivial fibration $\phi \colon X \to Y$, where the fiber $F$ is a rationally connected manifold and the base $Y$ is a…

This is a continuation of our first paper in [WY16]. There are two purposes of this paper: One is to give a proof of the main result in [WY16] without going through the argument depending on numerical effectiveness. The other one is to…

We show that the tangent bundle of a projective manifold with nef anticanonical class is generically nef. That is, its restriction to a curve cut out by general sufficiently ample divisors is a nef vector bundle. This confirms a conjecture…

In this paper, we prove that a non-projective compact K\"ahler three-fold with nef anti-canonical bundle is, up to a finite \'etale cover, one of the following: a manifold with vanishing first Chern class; the product of a K3 surface and…

A celebrated conjecture of Kobayashi and Lang says that the canonical line bundle $K_X$ of a Kobayashi hyperbolic compact complex manifold $X$ is ample. In this note we prove that $K_X$ is ample if $X$ is projective and satisfies a stronger…

To any compact K\"ahler manifold $(X, \omega)$ one may associate a bundle of affine spaces $Z_X\rightarrow X$ called a \emph{canonical extension} of $X$. In this paper we prove that if the tangent bundle of $X$ is nef, then the total space…

Given a complex manifold $X$, any K\"ahler class defines an affine bundle over $X$, and any K\"ahler form in the given class defines a totally real embedding of $X$ into this affine bundle. We formulate conditions under which the affine…

In this paper, we prove the Miyaoka-Yau inequality for compact K\"ahler manifolds with semi-positive canonical bundle. The key point of the proof is the estimate for the $L^2$-norm of the scalar curvature along the K\"ahler-Ricci flow.
