We prove by induction on dimension the Hodge conjecture for smooth complex projective varieties. Let $X$ be a smooth complex projective variety. Then $X$ is birational to a possibly singular projective hypersurface, hence to a smooth…

We extend the usual projective Abel-Radon transform to the larger context of a smooth complete toric variety X. We define and study toric concavity attached to an algebraic splitting vector bundle on X and we prove a toric version of the…

We complete the classification of all smooth 4-dimensional Kahler geometries admitting a twistor (conformal Killing-Yano) 2-form invariant under a 2-torus action. We establish that there are six geometrically distinct families, and we…

As in the case of irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds, the period domain $Compl$ of compact complex tori of even dimension $2n$ contains twistor lines. These are special $2$-spheres parametrizing complex tori whose complex…

We discuss algebraic vector bundles on smooth k-schemes X contractible from the standpoint of A^1-homotopy theory; when k = C, the smooth manifolds X(C) are contractible as topological spaces. The integral algebraic K-theory and integral…

For a smooth manifold $N$ denote by $E^m(N)$ the set of smooth isotopy classes of smooth embeddings $N\to\mathbb R^m$. A description of the set $E^m(S^p\times S^q)$ was known only for $p=q=0$ or for $p=0$, $m\ne q+2$ or for $2m\ge…

This paper introduces the notion of twisted toric manifolds which is a generalization of one of symplectic toric manifolds, and proves the weak Delzant type classification theorem for them. The computation methods for their fundamental…

We introduce natural deformation classes of generalized K\"ahler structures using the Courant symmetry group. We show that these yield natural extensions of the notions of K\"ahler class and K\"ahler cone to generalized K\"ahler geometry.…

Let $A$ be a complex torus and $G$ a finite group acting on $A$ without translations such that $A/G$ is smooth. Consider the subgroup $F\leq G$ generated by elements that have at least one fixed point. We prove that there exists a point…

This paper generalises Mori's famous theorem about "Projective manifolds with ample tangent bundles" to normal projective varieties in the following way: A normal projective variety over $\mathbb{C}$ with ample tangent sheaf is isomorphic…

We provide a characterization of complex tori using holomorphic symmetric differentials. With the same method we show that compact complex manifolds of Kodaira dimension 0 having some symmetric power of the cotangent bundle globally…

Let X be a smooth projective curve over a perfect field k of positive characteristic. This work investigates the relationship between stratified cohomology and group cohomology of the stratified fundamental group of X.

We give a construction of integrable complex structures on the total space of a smooth principal bundle over a complex manifold, with an even dimensional compact Lie group as structure group, under certain conditions. This generalizes the…

Let $X$ be an abelian variety defined over an algebraically closed field $k$. We consider theta groups associated to \emph{simple semi-homogenous vector bundles of separable type} on $X$. We determine the structure and representation theory…

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.

We prove several results on the structure of solvable quotients of fundamental groups of compact Kahler manifolds (Kahler groups).

All compact K\"ahler, or even $\partial\bar\partial$-manifolds, are rationally formal. Not all of them are strongly formal. Yet some of them are: For complete smooth complex toric varieties and homogeneous compact K\"ahler manifolds we show…

In this mostly expository paper we review several known results about the cohomology of moduli spaces of smooth and stable curves, focusing in particular on low degree cohomology. We also give a new proof of Harer's theorem describing the…

For each closed orientable surface we introduce a simplical complex with some additional structure which is a version of the complex of curves of this surface adjusted to investigation of its Torelli group. We call this complex the Torelli…

We show there is a symplectic conifold transition of a projective 3-fold which is not deformation equivalent to any Kaehler manifold. The key ingredient is Mori's classification of extremal rays on smooth projective 3-folds. It follows that…
