We prove that for any non-symmetric irreducible divisible convex set, the proximal limit set is the full projective boundary.

We construct a Koszul complex in the category of left skew polynomial rings associated to a flat endomorphism that provides a finite free resolution of an ideal generated by a Koszul regular sequence.

We investigate when the tangent bundle of a projective manifold has a non-trivial first order (or positive-dimensional) deformation. This leads to a new conjectural characterization of the complex projective space.

We display four approximation theorems for manifold-valued mappings. The first one approximates holomorphic embeddings on pseudoconvex domains in $\Bbb C^n$ with holomorphic embeddings with dense images. The second theorem approximates…

We prove that any smooth Riemannian manifold of non-negative scalar curvature and with a strictly mean convex and compact boundary component can be (C^2) extended beyond the component to have non-negative scalar curvature and to enjoy…

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…

The central topic of this thesis is the study of some properties of a class of complex compact manifolds~: Moishezon manifolds. In the first part, we generalize J.-P. Demailly's holomorphic Morse inequalities to the case of a line bundle…

We study a class of continuous deformations of branched complex projective structures on closed surfaces of genus $g\geq 2$, which preserve the holonomy representation of the structure and the order of the branch points. In the case of…

Let X be a complex manifold with strongly pseudoconvex boundary M. If u is a defining function for M, then -log u is plurisubharmonic on a neighborhood of M in X, and the (real) 2-form s = i \del \delbar(-log u) is a symplectic structure on…

In this paper, we first prove that a compact K\"ahler manifold is projective if it satisfies certain quasi-positive curvature conditions, including quasi-positive $S_2^\perp,\, S_2^+,\,\mbox{Ric}_3^\perp, \,\mbox{Ric}_3^+$ or…

The authors give a complete classification of projective threefolds admitting a holomorphic normal projective connection. Moreover, they prove a general structure theorem on complex projective manifolds admitting a holomorphic normal…

In this paper we study the geometry and topology of compact Riemannian manifolds $(M,g)$ with boundary having the property that every geodesic that starts orthogonally to $\partial M$ also arrives orthogonally to the boundary.

A planar set $P$ is said to be cover-decomposable if there is a constant $k=k(P)$ such that every $k$-fold covering of the plane with translates of $P$ can be decomposed into two coverings. It is known that open convex polygons are…

We prove that each bounded polytope can be represented as a polynomial zonotope, which we refer to as the Z-representation of polytopes. Previous representations are the vertex representation (V-representation) and the halfspace…

This article investigates the subject of rigid compact complex manifolds. First of all we investigate the different notions of rigidity (local rigidity, global rigidity, infinitesimal rigidity, etale rigidity and strong rigidity) and the…

We classify all closed, aspherical Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover has indiscrete isometry group. One sample application is the theorem that any such M with word-hyperbolic fundamental group must be isometric to a negatively…

We first show that for a bounded pseudoconvex domain with a manifold quotient of finite-volume in the sense of Kahler-Einstein measure, the identity component of the automorphism group of this domain is semi-simple without compact factors.…

We study a class of semialgebraic convex bodies called discotopes. These are instances of zonoids, objects of interest in real algebraic geometry and random geometry. We focus on the face structure and on the boundary hypersurface of…

We construct a compact, simply connected manifold with holonomy $\mathrm{G}_2$ that is non-formal. We use the construction method of compact torsion-free $\mathrm{G}_2$ manifolds developed by D.D. Joyce and S. Karigiannis. A non-vanishing…

We show that the number of equivariant deformation classes of real structures in a given deformation class of compact hyperkahler manifolds is finite.
