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…

This paper is devoted to the first systematic investigation of manifolds that are Einstein for a connection with skew symmetric torsion. We derive the Einstein equation from a variational principle and prove that, for parallel torsion, any…

A twisted quiver bundle is a set of holomorphic vector bundles over a complex manifold, labelled by the vertices of a quiver, linked by a set of morphisms twisted by a fixed collection of holomorphic vector bundles, labelled by the arrows.…

We study new symmetries between A and D type quiver gauge theories with different numbers of colors. We realize these gauge theories with twisted masses via a brane construction that reproduces all the parameters of the Gauge/Bethe…

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…

We show that there are high-dimensional smooth compact manifolds which admit pairs of Einstein metrics for which the scalar curvatures have opposite signs. These are counter-examples to a conjecture considered by Besse. The proof hinges on…

In this paper, we study the semi-stable twisted holomorphic vector bundles over compact Gauduchon manifolds. By using Uhlenbeck--Yau's continuity method, we show that the existence of approximate Hermitian--Einstein structure and the…

In this paper, we characterize Riemannian 4-manifold in terms of its almost Hermitian twistor spaces $(Z,g_t,\mathbb{J}_{\pm})$. Some special metric conditions (including Balanced metric condition, first Gauduchon metric condition) on…

The norm of Cartan torsion plays an important role for studying of immersion theory in Finsler geometry. Indeed, Finsler manifold with unbounded Cartan torsion can not be isometrically imbedded into any Minkowski space. In this paper, we…

Any measure $\mu$ on a CAT(k) space M that is stratified as a finite union of manifolds and has local exponential maps near the Fr\'echet mean $\bar\mu$ yields a continuous "tangential collapse" from the tangent cone of M at $\bar\mu$ to a…

We show that the existence of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (cscK) metrics with cone singularities is equivalent to the properness of log $K$-energy. We also prove their equivalence to the geodesic stability. They are extensions of the…

We generalize an inequality for mixed Monge-Amp\`ere measures. We also give an example that shows that our assumptions are sharp. The corresponding result in the setting of compact K\"ahler manifold is also discussed.

We classify a large class of "unbalanced" 4-manifold GK-trisections, which are a slight generalization of 4-manifold trisections defined by Gay and Kirby.

For a Kahler metric, the Riemannian scalar curvature is equal to twice the Chern scalar curvature. The question we address here is whether this equivalence can hold for a non-Kahler Hermitian metric. For such metrics, if they exist, the…

We prove the conjecture of Tian on the strong form of the Moser-Trudinger inequality for Kahler-Einstein manifolds with positive first Chern class, when there are no holomorphic vector fields, and, more generally, when the setting is…

The aim of this paper is to establish the equivalence between the concepts of an $S$-metric space and a cone $S$-metric space using\ some topological approaches. We introduce a new notion of $TVS$-cone $S$-metric space using some facts…

We define a trisection of a closed, orientable three dimensional manifold into three handlebodies, and a notion of stabilization for these trisections. Several examples of trisections are described in detail. We define the trisection genus…

We study the class of (locally) anti-blocking bodies as well as some associated classes of convex bodies. For these bodies, we prove geometric inequalities regarding volumes and mixed volumes, including Godberson's conjecture, near-optimal…

We classify invariant complex structures on 6-dimensional nilmanifolds up to equivalence. As an application, the behaviour of the associated Fr\"olicher sequence is studied as well as its relation to the existence of strongly Gauduchon…

We show the existence of strictly almost-Kahler anti-self-dual metrics on certain 4-manifolds by deforming scalar-flat Kahler metrics. On the other hand, we prove the non-existence of such metrics on certain other 4-manifolds by means of…
