We show that a compact Kaehler manifold X is a complex torus if both the continuous part and discrete part of some automorphism group G of X are infinite groups, unless X is bimeromorphic to a non-trivial G-equivariant fibration. Some…
A compactness theorem is proved for a family of K\"{a}hler surfaces with constant scalar curvature and volume bounded from below, diameter bounded from above, Ricci curvature bounded and the signature bounded from below. Furthermore, a…
We discuss the universal orbifold Euler characteristic and generalized orbifold Euler characteristics corresponding to finitely generated groups $A$ (the $A$-Euler characteristics). We show that the collection of all $A$-Euler…
Let $X$ be a compact Kaehler manifold of dimension $k$ and $T$ be a positive closed current on $X$ of bidimension $(p,p)$ ($1\leq p < k-1$). We construct a continuous linear transform $\mathcal{L}_p(T)$ of $T$ which is a positive closed…
If $f$ is an automorphism of a compact simply connected K\"ahler manifold with trivial canonical bundle that fixes a K\"ahler class, then the order of $f$ is finite. We apply this well known result to construct compact non-K\"ahler…
In this work, we investigate compact K\"ahler manifolds with non-negative or quasi-positive mixed curvature coming from a linear combination of the Ricci and holomorphic sectional curvature, which covers various notions of curvature…
This paper is intended as the first step of a programme aiming to prove in the long run the long-conjectured closedness under holomorphic deformations of compact complex manifolds that are bimeromorphically equivalent to compact K\"ahler…
We review our present understanding of heterotic compactifications on non-Kahler complex manifolds with torsion. Most of these manifolds can be obtained by duality chasing a consistent F-theory compactification in the presence of fluxes. We…
In the present paper, we establish a general Kawamata-Viehweg-Koll\'ar-Nadel type vanishing theorem for higher direct images in terms of numerical dimension for closed positive currents on compact K\"ahler manifolds, unifying a number of…
In the paper we prove a factorization theorem for representations of fundamental groups of compact K\"{a}hler manifolds ({\em K\"{a}hler groups}) into solvable matrix groups. We apply this result to prove that the universal covering of a…
On a class of compact Hermitian manifolds including compact K\"{a}hler manifolds, we prove that the the relative non-pluripolar product is always well-defined. We also prove the monotonicity of the relative non-pluripolar product in terms…
It has been shown by Claire Voisin in 2003 that one cannot always deform a compact K\"ahler manifold into a projective algebraic manifold, thereby answering negatively a question raised by Kodaira. In this article, we prove that under an…
We use Gromov's K--area to define a generalized homology theory on compact smooth manifolds. In fact, this theory collects obstructions to the enlargeability of the manifold and its nontrivial submanifolds. Moreover, using the K--area…
A generalized complex manifold which satisfies the $\partial \overline{\partial}$-lemma admits a Hodge decomposition in twisted cohomology. Using a Courant algebroid theoretic approach we study the behavior of the Hodge decomposition in…
We characterize the boundaries of positive holomorphic chains (with both compact and non-compact support) in an arbitrary complex manifold. We then consider a compact oriented real submanifold of dimension 2p-1 in a compact Kahler manifold…
This text is an introduction to math.AG/0110051 (to appear in Ann. Inst. Fourier), and describes a canonical decomposition of compact K\"ahler manifolds $X$ first by means of their "core", the unique fibration on $X$ with fibres special,…
The property of admitting an astheno-K\"ahler metric is not stable under the action of small deformations of the complex structure of a compact complex manifold. In this paper, we prove necessary cohomological conditions for the existence…
We give a complex polarized variation of Hodge structure over a compact K"ahler manifold $M$ which controls all finite-dimensional complex polarized variations of Hodge structure over $M$ and their tensor relations. As a corollary, we…
Given two finite covers $p: X \to S$ and $q: Y \to S$ of a connected, oriented, closed surface $S$ of genus at least $2$, we attempt to characterize the equivalence of $p$ and $q$ in terms of which curves lift to simple curves. Using…
In the context of orientable circuits and subcomplexes of these as representing certain singular spaces, we consider characteristic class formulas generalizing those classical results as seen for the Riemann-Hurwitz formula for regulating…
