Theorem (uniformization). Let X be a compact Kahler manifold of dimension n with large, residually finite and nonamenable fundamental group. Then its universal covering is a bounded domain in the n-dimensional affine space.

This article generalises to K\"ahler orbifolds general results on uniformisation of compact K\"ahler manifolds such as the Shafarevich conjecture for linear fundamental groups.

In this paper, we study the rigidity properties of compact Kahler manifolds. Given a smooth family of compact Kahler manifolds X over the unit disk, we show that all the fibers are mutually isomorphic if the family is locally trivial at a…

Let X be a compact K\"ahler manifold such that the universal cover admits a compactification. We conjecture that the fundamental group is almost abelian and reduce it to a classical conjecture of Iitaka.

A compactness theorem is proved for a family of K\"{a}hler surfaces with constant scalar curvature and volume bounded from below, diameter bounded from above, Ricci curvature bounded and the signature bounded from below. Furthermore, a…

These are lecture notes for a course to be held. They provide a full discussion of certain analytic aspects of the uniformisation theory of (singular) holomorphic foliations by curves on compact Kaehler manifolds, with emphasis on their…

Let X be a compact Kahler manifold with negative sectional curvature and residually finite fundamental group. Then its universal covering is a bounded domain in an affine space.

The aim of this note is to study the convergence in capacity for functions in the class $\mathcal E(X,\omega)$. We obtain several stability theorems. Some of these are (optimal) generalizations of results of Xing, while others are new.

For a complete noncompact connected Riemannian manifold with bounded geometry, we prove a compactness result for sequences of finite perimeter sets with uniformly bounded volume and perimeter in a larger space obtained by adding limit…

A generalized topology in a set $X$ is a collection $\text{Cov}_X$ of families of subsets of $X$ such that the triple $(X,\bigcup \text{Cov}_X,\text{Cov}_X)$ is a generalized topological space in the sense of Delfs and Knebusch. In this…

In complex Finsler geometry, an open problem is: does there exist a weakly K\"ahler Finsler metric which is not K\"ahler? In this paper, we give an affirmative answer to this open problem. More precisely, we construct a family of the weakly…

The aim of the paper is to characterize (pre)compactness in the spaces of Lipschitz/H\"older continuous mappings acting from a compact metric space to a normed space. To this end some extensions and generalizations of already existing…

The aim of this paper is to prove all well-known metrization theorems using partitions of unity. To accomplish this, we first discuss sufficient and necessary conditions for existence of $\mathcal{U}$-small partitions of unity (partitions…

After a historical discussion of classical uniformisation results for Riemann surfaces, of problems appearing in higher dimensions, and of uniformisation results for projective manifolds with trivial or ample canonical bundle, we introduce…

We study compact K\"ahler threefolds X with infinite fundamental group whose universal cover can be compactified. Combining techniques from $L^2$ -theory, Campana's geometric orbifolds and the minimal model program we show that this…

We give a short proof that, for nice $X$, the based fundamental groupoid of $X$ with topology induced by the compact open topology on the space of paths, is indeed the universal covering space of $X$.

Our aim is to solve a quite old question on the difference between expandability and compact expandability. Toward this, we further investigate the logic of countable cofinality.

We establish topological local rigidity for uniform lattices in compactly generated groups, extending the result of Weil from the realm of Lie groups. We generalize the classical local rigidity theorem of Selberg, Calabi and Weil to…

This article presents an algebraic topology perspective on the problem of finding a complete coverage probability of a one dimensional domain $X$ by a random covering, and develops techniques applicable to the problem beyond the one…

We introduce the notion of uniform exactness, or uniform amenability at infinity, for discrete groups and prove it for a wide class of groups containing free groups and their limit groups. This shows a novel strong convergence phenomenon…
