Given a G-structure with connection satisfying a regularity assumption we associate to it a classifying Lie algebroid. This algebroid contains all the information about the equivalence problem and is an example of a G-structure Lie…

We introduce a diffeomorphism invariant of $4$-manifolds, the $\mathrm{Pin}^-(2)$-monopole invariant, defined by using the $\mathrm{Pin}^-(2)$-monopole equations. We compute the invariants of several $4$-manifolds, and prove gluing…

This article constructs Von Neumann invariants for constructible complexes and coherent D-modules on compact complex manifolds, generalizing the work of the author on coherent L 2-cohomology. We formulate a conjectural generalization of…

We introduce the concept of G2(2)-structure on an orientable 3-manifold M using the setting of generalized geometry of type Bn, study their local deformation by making use of a Moser-type argument, and give a description of the cone of…

In this paper, we examine some geometric vector fields on 2-step nilmanifolds of dimension 5.

We characterize those real flag manifolds that can be endowed with invariant generalized almost complex structures. We show that no $GM_2$-maximal real flag manifolds admit integrable invariant generalized almost complex structures. We give…

We classify non-algebraic compact K\"ahler threefolds admitting an endomorphism $f: X \to X$ of degree at least two.

We classify real 6-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras for which the corresponding Lie group has a left-invariant complex structure, and estimate the dimensions of moduli spaces of such structures.

We give methods to compute l^2-cohomology groups of a covering manifolds obtained by removing pullback of a (normal crossing) divisor to a covering of a compact K\"ahler manifold. We prove that in suitable quotient categories, these groups…

In this work we study the existence of invariant almost complex structures on real flag manifolds associated to split real forms of complex simple Lie algebras. We show that, contrary to the complex case where the invariant almost complex…

We prove the existence of a one-parameter family of nearly parallel $G_2$-structures on the manifold $S^3\times \mathbb R^4$, which are mutually non isomorphic and invariant under the cohomogeneity one action of the group $SU(2)^3$. This…

Lagrangian formalism on graded manifolds is phrased in terms of the Grassmann-graded variational bicomplex, generalizing the familiar variational bicomplex for even Lagrangian systems on fiber bundles.

We show how one can associate to a given class of finite type G-structures a classifying Lie algebroid. The corresponding Lie groupoid gives models for the different geometries that one can find in the class, and encodes also the different…

The notion of Gelfand pair (G, K) can be generalized if we consider homogeneous vector bundles over G/K instead of the homogeneous space G/K and matrix-valued functions instead of scalar-valued functions. This gives the definition of…

We prove new variation formulae for the volume of coassociative submanifolds, expressed in terms of $G_2$ data. As a special case, we obtain a second variation formula for variations within the moduli space of coassociative submanifolds;…

Let $M_i$, for $i=1,2$, be a K\"ahler manifold, and let $G$ be a Lie group acting on $M_i$ by K\"ahler isometries. Suppose that the action admits a momentum map $\mu_i$ and let $N_i:=\mu_i^{-1}(0)$ be a regular level set. When the action of…

In this article, we study the invariant differential forms which a correspondence of curves admits. We also try to classify the correspondences of $\mathbb{P}^1$ that admits such invariant differential forms.

This article introduces the problem of finding intrinsic torsion varieties associated to G-structures on a fixed parallelizable Riemannian manifold. As an illustration, the intrinsic torsion varieties of orthogonal almost product structures…

We describe separating G_2-invariants of several copies of the algebra of octonions over an algebraically closed field of characteristic two. We also obtain a minimal separating and a minimal generating set for G_2-invariants of several…

We define additional gradings on two generalisations of Khovanov homology (one due to the first author, the other due to the second), and use them to define invariants of various kinds of embeddings. These include invariants of links in…
