Let $X$ be a normal compact K\"ahler variety, and $\mathcal{F}$ a coherent reflexive sheaf on $X$. We investigate the existence of admissible Hermitian metrics on $\mathcal{F}$. If moreover $\mathcal{F}$ is slope stable, we also study the…
We study complex non-K\"ahler manifolds with Hermitian metrics being locally conformal to metrics with special cohomological properties. In particular, we provide examples where the existence of locally conformal holomorphic-tamed…
We construct explicit examples of quaternion-K\"ahler and hypercomplex structures on bundles over hyperK\"ahler manifolds. We study the infinitesimal symmetries of these examples and the associated Galicki-Lawson quaternion-K\"ahler moment…
We define a partition of the space of projectively flat metrics in three classes according to the sign of the Chern scalar curvature; we prove that the class of negative projectively flat metrics is empty, and that the class of positive…
In this paper we study the set of balanced metrics (in Donaldson's terminology) on a compact complex manifold M which are homothetic to a given balanced one. This question is related to various properties of the Tian-Yau-Zelditch…
Oeljeklaus-Toma (OT) manifolds are higher dimensional analogues of Inoue-Bombieri surfaces and their construction is associated to a finite extension $K$ of $Q$ and a subgroup of units $U$. We characterize the existence of pluriclosed…
The target space of a (4,0) supersymmetric two-dimensional sigma model with Wess-Zumino term has a connection with totally skew-symmetric torsion and holonomy contained in Sp(n)Sp(1) (resp. Sp(n)), QKT (resp. HKT)-spaces. We study the…

We construct left invariant quaternionic contact (qc) structures on Lie groups with zero and non-zero torsion and with non-vanishing quaternionic contact conformal curvature tensor, thus showing the existence of non-flat quaternionic…
The first example of a compact manifold admitting both complex and symplectic structures but not admitting a K\"ahler structure is the renowned Kodaira-Thurston manifold. We review its construction and show that this paradigm is very…
For an almost contact metric manifold $N$, we find conditions for which either the total space of an $S^1$-bundle over $N$ or the Riemannian cone over $N$ admits a strong K\"ahler with torsion (SKT) structure. In this way we construct new…
Let $(X,J)$ be a nilmanifold with a left-invariant nilpotent complex structure. We study the existence of $p$-K\"ahler structures (which include K\"ahler and balanced metrics) on $X$. More precisely, we determine an optimal $p$ such that…
In this paper, we establish a "pseudo-effective" version of the holonomy principle for compact K\"{a}hler manifolds with nonnegative holomorphic sectional curvature. As applications, we prove that if a compact complex manifold $M$ admits a…
We review the relations between compact complex manifolds carrying various types of Hermitian metrics (K\"ahler, balanced or {\it strongly Gauduchon}) and those satisfying the $\partial\bar\partial$-lemma or the degeneration at $E_1$ of the…
In this paper, we study numerically flat holomorphic vector bundles over a compact non-K\"ahler manifold $(X, \omega)$ with the Hermitian metric $\omega$ satisfying the Gauduchon and Astheno-K\"ahler conditions. We prove that numerically…
This paper investigates the question of which smooth compact 4-manifolds admit Riemannian metrics that minimize the L2-norm of the curvature tensor. Metrics with this property are called OPTIMAL; Einstein metrics and scalar-flat…
We study quaternionic Bott-Chern cohomology on compact hypercomplex manifolds and adapt some results from complex geometry to the quaternionic setting. For instance, we prove a criterion for the existence of HKT metrics on compact…

For compact complex manifolds with vanishing first Chern class that are compact torus principal bundles over K\"ahler manifolds, we prove that all holomorphic geometric structures on them, of affine type, are locally homogeneous. For a…
