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…

The lack of a uniformization theorem in several complex variables leads to a desire to classify all of the simply connected domains. We use established computational methods and a localization technique to generalize a recently-published…

We show that special cycles generate a large part of the cohomology of locally symmetric spaces associated to orthogonal groups. We prove in particular that classes of totally geodesic submanifolds generate the cohomology groups of degree…

A holomorphic Lagrangian fibration on a holomorphically symplectic manifold is a holomorphic map with Lagrangian fibers. It is known that a given compact manifold admits only finitely many holomorphic symplectic structures, up to…

We consider Kobayashi geodesics in the moduli space of abelian varieties A_g that is, algebraic curves that are totally geodesic submanifolds for the Kobayashi metric. We show that Kobayashi geodesics can be characterized as those curves…

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…

Hyperkahler quotients by non-free actions are typically highly singular, but are remarkably still partitioned into smooth hyperkahler manifolds. We show that these partitions are topological stratifications, in a strong sense. We also endow…

The paper investigates the (non)existence of compact quotients, by a discrete subgroup, of the homogeneous almost-complex strongly-pseudoconvex manifolds disconvered and classified by Gaussier-Sukhov and K.-H. Lee.

We extend the techniques developed by Millson and Raghunathan to prove nonvanishing results for the cohomology of compact arithmetic quotients of hyperbolic n-space with values in the local coefficient systems associated to finite…

We proove an Ahlfors' like inequality for the holomorphic curves of a complex compact Kobayashi hyperbolic manifold.

We explore the horofunction compactification of complete hyperbolic domains in complex Euclidean space equipped with the Kobayashi distance. We provide a sufficient condition under which, given a domain $\Omega$ as above, the identity map…

We describe a family of smooth contractible algebraic surfaces $X$ different from $\C^2$ such that $X$ admits dominant holomorphic maps from $\C^2$ and there is a unique line $E$ in $X$ for which the Kobayashi-Royden pseudometric vanishes…

We prove several vanishing theorems for the cohomology of balanced hyperbolic manifolds that we introduced in our previous work and for the $L^2$ harmonic spaces on the universal cover of these manifolds. Other results include a Hard…

In this paper we establish Gehring-Hayman type theorems for some complex domains. Suppose that $\Omega\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ is a bounded $m$-convex domain with Dini-smooth boundary, or a bounded strongly pseudoconvex domain with…

We introduce two notions of hyperbolicity for not necessarily K\"ahler even balanced $n$-dimensional compact complex manifolds $X$. The first, called {\it SKT hyperbolicity}, generalises Gromov's K\"ahler hyperbolicity by means of SKT…

In this article, we study the Kobayashi isometries of 2-dimensional complex manifolds having a finite Carath\'eodory universal set. In particular, we prove that the Kobayashi isometries of these complex manifolds are (anti)holomorphic.

Given a compact complex manifold, we study the cohomology and the Hodge theory for the elliptic complex of differential forms defined by Bigolin in 1969 and recently referred to as the Schweitzer complex. Recall that the double complex of a…

Let D be a smooth relatively compact and strictly J-pseudoconvex domain in a four dimensional almost complex manifold (M,J). We give sharp estimates of the Kobayashi metric. Our approach is based on an asymptotic quantitative description of…

We first prove an isomorphism between the moduli space of smooth cubic threefolds and the moduli space of hyperkaehler fourfolds of K3^{[2]}-type with a non-symplectic automorphism of order three, whose invariant lattice has rank one and is…

We construct a cocycle that, for a given $n$-manifold, maps pairs of asymptotically locally hyperbolic (ALH) metrics to a tractor-valued $(n-1)$-form field on the conformal infinity. This requires the metrics to be asymptotically related to…
