Let $(M,J)$ be a complex manifold of complex dimension $n$. A $p$-K\"ahler structure on $(M,J)$ is a real, closed $(p,p)$-transverse form. In this paper, we address the conjecture of L. Alessandrini and G. Bassanelli on $(n-2)$-K\"ahler…

We show that a $2k$-current $T$ on a complex manifold is a real holomorphic $k$-chain if and only if $T$ is locally real rectifiable, $d$-closed and has $\mathcal{H}^{2k}$-locally finite support. This result is applied to study homology…

In this article we introduce the notion of Polyhedral Kahler manifolds, even dimensional polyhedral manifolds with unitary holonomy. We concentrate on the 4-dimensional case, prove that such manifolds are smooth complex surfaces, and…

Let $M$ be a simple holomorphically symplectic manifold, that is, a simply connected holomorphically symplectic manifold of Kahler type with $h^{2,0}=1$. We prove that the group of holomorphic automorphisms of $M$ acts on the set of faces…

In this note we make several observations concerning symplectic fillings. In particular we show that a (strongly or weakly) semi-fillable contact structure is fillable and any filling embeds as a symplectic domain in a closed symplectic…

We study the existence problem for complete contact forms with constant Tanaka--Webster scalar curvature on non-compact strictly pseudoconvex CR manifolds. We prove that, under mild assumptions, the universal cover of a compact strictly…

We present a construction (and classification) of certain invariant 2-forms on the real symplectic group. They are used to define a symplectic form on the quotient by a maximal torus and to "lift" a symplectic structure from a symplectic…

The first part of this paper is a generalization of the Feix-Kaledin theorem on the existence of a hyperkahler metric on a neighbourhood of the zero section of the cotangent bundle of a Kahler manifold. We show that the problem of…

A non-linear generalization of the Dirac operator in 4-dimensions, obtained by replacing the spinor representation with a hyperKahler manifold admitting certain symmetries, is considered. We show that the existence of a covariantly…

We propose a class of N=2 supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models on the noncompact Ricci-flat Kahler manifolds, interpreted as the complex line bundles over the hermitian symmetric spaces. Kahler potentials and Ricci-flat metrics for these…

In this paper it is proven that if the group of covering translations of the covering space of a compact, connected, $P^2$-irreducible 3-manifold corresponding to a non-trivial, finitely-generated subgroup of its fundamental group is…

This thesis contains work which appeared in several papers. Additionally to the results in the papers it contains a detailed introduction and some further proofs and remarks. The dissertation gives a description of the topology and…

Let $X$ be a union of a sequence of symplectic manifolds of increasing dimension and let $M$ be a manifold with a closed $2$-form $\omega$. We use Tischler's elementary method for constructing symplectic embeddings in complex projective…

Scattering symplectic manifolds are (closed) manifolds with a mildly degenerate Poisson structure. In particular they can be viewed as symplectic structures on a Lie algebroid which is almost everywhere isomorphic to the tangent bundle. In…

In this paper we prove that the closed $4$-ball admits non-K\"ahler complex structures with strictly pseudoconcave boundary. Moreover, the induced contact structure on the boundary $3$-sphere is overtwisted.

In this paper we count the number of isomorphism classes of geometrically indecomposable quasi-parabolic structures of a given type on a given vector bundle on the projective line over a finite field. We give a conjectural cohomological…

The first example of a compact manifold admitting both complex and symplectic structures but not admitting a K\"ahler structure is the renowned Kodaira-Thurston manifold. We review its construction and show that this paradigm is very…

We continue the study of compact holomorphic $p$-contact manifolds $X$ that we introduced recently by expanding the discussion to include non-K\"ahler hyperbolicity issues and a differential calculus based on what we call the Lie derivative…

This paper attempts to investigate the space of various characteristic classes for smooth manifold bundles with local system on the total space inducing a finite holonomy covering. These classes are known as twisted higher torsion classes.…

For a quasi-compact K\"ahler manifold $U$ endowed with a nilpotent harmonic bundle whose Higgs field is injective at one point, we prove that $U$ is pseudo-algebraically hyperbolic, pseudo-Picard hyperbolic, and is of log general type.…
