In this paper we study the topology of the spaces Hol(M,P{n},k) of (basepoint preserving) holomorphic maps of a given degree k from a Riemann surface M of genus g>0 into the n-th complex projective space P{n}, n>0. Using symmetric products…
For Cartan geometries admitting automorphisms with isotropies satisfying a particular, loosely dynamical property on their model geometries, we demonstrate the existence of an open subset of the geometry with trivial holonomy. This…
A classical theorem of Micallef says that if $F \colon (\Sigma, g) \to \mathbb{R}^4$ is a stable minimal immersion of an oriented $2$-dimensional complete Riemannian manifold (that is parabolic) into $\mathbb{R}^4$, it is necessarily…
In this chapter we give a geometric representation of $H_{n}(B;\mathbb{L})$ classes, where $\mathbb{L}$ is the $4$-periodic surgery spectrum, by establishing a relationship between the normal cobordism classes…
We prove some Liouville type results for generalized holomorphic maps in three classes: maps from pseudo-Hermitian manifolds to almost Hermitian manifolds, maps from almost Hermitian manifolds to pseudo-Hermitian manifolds and maps from…
We prove the following: 1. Let epsilon>0 and let S_1,S_2 be two closed hyperbolic surfaces. Then there exists locally-isometric covers S'_i of S_i (for i=1,2) such that there is a (1+\epsilon) bi-Lipschitz homeomorphism between S'_1 and…
We give a new proof of the classification of normal singular surface germs admitting non-invertible holomorphic self-maps and due to J. Wahl. We then draw an analogy between the birational classification of singular holomorphic foliations…
We construct normal forms for Levi degenerate hypersurfaces of finite type in $\mathbb C^2$. As one consequence, an explicit solution to the problem of local biholomorphic equivalence is obtained. Another consequence determines the…
This is a final step in a local classification of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with parallel Weyl tensor that are not conformally flat or locally symmetric.
We prove that any $C^2$ complete, orientable, connected, stable area-stationary surface in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$ is either a Euclidean plane or congruent to the hyperbolic paraboloid $t=xy$.
Let $S$ be a closed oriented surface of genus at least two. Gallo, Kapovich, and Marden asked if 2\pi-graftings produce all projective structures on $S$ with arbitrarily fixed holonomy (Grafting Conjecture). In this paper, we show that the…
We give an equivalent definition of compact locally conformally hyperk\"ahler manifolds in terms of the existence of a nondegenerate complex two-form with natural properties. This is a conformal analogue of Beauville's theorem stating that…
Let $M$ be a $n$-dimensional complex manifold and $f,g:M\to M$ two distinct holomorphic self-maps. Suppose that $f$ and $g$ coincide on a globally irreducible compact hypersurface $S\subset M$. We show that if one of the two maps is a local…
In this paper we count the number of isomorphism classes of geometrically indecomposable quasi-parabolic structures of a given type on a given vector bundle on the projective line over a finite field. We give a conjectural cohomological…
We show that the moduli space M of marked cubic surfaces is biholomorphic to the quotient by a discrete group generated by complex reflections of the complex four-ball minus the reflection hyperplanes of the group. Thus M carries a complex…
We obtain an explicit parametrization of stationary discs glued to some Levi non-degenerate hypersurfaces. These discs form a family which is invariant under the action of biholomorphisms. We use this parametrization to construct a local…
This is an expository proof that, if $M$ is a compact $n$-manifold with no boundary, then the set of holonomies of strictly-convex real-projective structures on $M$ is a subset of $\operatorname{Hom}(\pi_1M,\operatorname{PGL}(n+1,\mathbb…
Given any compact Riemann surface $C$, there is a canonical meromorphic 2--form $\widehat\eta$ on $C\times C$, with pole of order two on the diagonal $\Delta\, \subset\, C\times C$, constructed in \cite{cfg}. This meromorphic 2--form…
Let M^3 be a compact, oriented, irreducible, and boundary incompressible 3-manifold. Assume that its fundamental group is without rank two abelian subgroups and its boundary is non-empty. We will show that every homomorphism from pi_1(M) to…
We consider an alternative approach to a fundamental CR invariant - the Catlin multitype. It is applied to a general smooth hypersurface in $\mathbbC^{n+1}$, not necessarily pseudoconvex. Using this approach, we prove biholomorphic…
