We classify all closed non-orientable P2-irreducible 3-manifolds having complexity up to 6 and we describe some having complexity 7. We show in particular that there is no such manifold with complexity less than 6, and that those having…
We investigate the geometry and topology of submanifolds under a sharp pinching condition involving extrinsic invariants like the mean curvature and the length of the second fundamental form. Several homology vanishing results are given.…
Let $\pi: \mathcal{X}^* \rightarrow B^*$ be an algebraic family of compact K\"ahler manifolds of complex dimension $n$ with negative first Chern class over a punctured disc $B^*\in \mathbb{C}$. Let $g_t$ be the unique K\"ahler-Einstein…
We show uniqueness up to sign of positive, orthogonal almost-Kaehler structures on any non-scalar flat Kaehler-Einstein surface.
A non-linear generalization of the Dirac operator in 4-dimensions, obtained by replacing the spinor representation with a hyperKahler manifold admitting certain symmetries, is considered. We show that the existence of a covariantly…
We utilize Spin(7) identities to prove that the Cayley four-form associated to a torsion-free Spin(7)-Structure is non-degenerate in the sense of multisymplectic geometry. Therefore, Spin(7) geometry may be treated as a special case of…
We prove that, for a closed oriented smooth spin 4-manifold $X$ with non-zero signature, the Dehn twist about a $(+2)$- or $(-2)$-sphere in $X$ is not homotopic to any finite order diffeomorphism. In particular, we negatively answer the…
New heterotic torsional geometries are constructed as orbifolds of T^2 bundles over K3. The discrete symmetries considered can be freely-acting or have fixed points and/or fixed curves. We give explicit constructions when the base K3 is…
For any homotopy class h in any compact orientable 3-manifold M which is closed or has exclusively torus boundary components, we produce infinitely many pairs of distinct knots representing h with orientation-preserving homeomorphic…
We show that on a compact complex surface all Massey products of cohomology classes in degree one vanish beyond length three. Dually, the real Malcev completion of the fundamental group is homogeneously presented by quadratic and cubic…
We show that any almost complex structure, positively tamed with $\omega$ on nearly K\"{a}hler 6-manifold $(M,g,J,\omega)$ is not integrable
We review a proof of the well know result stating that moduli spaces of stable sheaves with fixed Chern character on a polarized $K3$ surface are deformations of a hyperk\"ahler variety of Type $K3^{[n]}$ (if a suitable numerical hypothesis…
An orbifold version of Bogomolov decomposition theorem is established for compact K\"ahler spaces with quotient singularities and first Chern class zero.The proof is a direct adaptation of the classical smooth case, using Ricci-flat…
We prove that a compact smooth 4-manifold admits generalized complex structures of odd type if and only if it has a transversely holomorphic 2-foliation. Consequently, there exist generalized complex structures of odd type on a circle…
To a finite quiver equipped with a positive integer on each of its vertices, we associate a holomorphic symplectic manifold having some parameters. This coincides with Nakajima's quiver variety with no stability parameter/framing if the…
In this paper, we investigate the Chern number inequalities on $4$-dimensional K\"ahler manifolds admitting the deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills metrics under the assumption $\hat\theta\in (\pi,2\pi)$.
Kronheimer-Mrowka shows that the Dehn twist along a $3$-sphere in the neck of two $K3$ surfaces is not smoothly isotopic to the identity. Their result requires that the manifolds are simply connected and the signature of one of them is $16…
We study the class of non-degenerate homogeneous structures of linear type in the pseudo-K\"ahler, para-K\"ahler, pseudo-quaternion K\"ahler and para-quaternion K\"ahler cases. We show that these structures characterize spaces of constant…
We study the class $\mathcal{K}_{2}+\mathcal{K}_{4}$ of homogeneous pseudo-K\"ahler structures in the strongly degenerate case. The local form and the holonomy of a pseudo-K\"ahler manifold admitting such a structure is obtained, leading to…
We continue the program of Chinea, De Leon and Marrero who studied the topology of cosymplectic manifolds. We study 3-cosymplectic manifolds which are the closest odd-dimensional analogue of hyper-Kaehler structures. We show that there is…
