In this paper, we show that if the holomorphic tangent bundle $TX$ of a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ is uniformly weakly RC-positive, then $X$ is projective and rationally connected. This result is previously established by Xiaokui Yang…
The concept of RC-positivity and uniform RC-positivity is introduced by Xiaokui Yang to solve a conjecture of Yau on projectivity and rational connectedness of a compact K\"ahler manifold with positive holomorphic sectional curvature. Some…
In his recent work \cite{Y1}, X. Yang proved a conjecture raised by Yau in 1982 (\cite{Yau82}), which states that any compact K\"{a}hler manifold with positive holomorphic sectional curvature must be projective. In this note, we prove that…
A vanishing theorem for uniformly RC $k$-positive Hermitian holomorphic vector bundles is established. It turns out that the holomorphic tangent bundle of a compact complex manifold equipped with a positive $k$-Ricci curvature K\"{a}hler…
In this paper, we use Uhlenbeck-Yau's continuity method to establish the correspondence between the mean curvature positivity and the HN-positivity on holomorphic vector bundles over compact Hermitian manifolds. As its application, we get a…
In this paper, we study MRC fibrations of compact K\"ahler manifolds with partially semi-positive curvature. We first prove that a compact K\"ahler manifold is rationally connected if its tangent bundle is BC-$p$ positive for all $1\leq…
Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold. We prove that if $X$ admits a smooth Hermitian metric $\omega$ with quasi-positive second Chern-Ricci curvature $\mathrm{Ric}^{(2)}(\omega)$, then $X$ is projective and rationally connected. In…
In this paper, we pose several conjectures on structures and images of maximal rationally connected fibrations of smooth projective varieties admitting semi-positive holomorphic sectional curvature. Toward these conjectures, we prove that…
In this paper, we solve the prescribed Hermitian-Yang-Mills tensor problem. Let $ E $ be a holomorphic vector bundle over a compact K\"ahler manifold $(M,\omega_g) $. Suppose that there exists a smooth Hermitian metric $ h_0 $ on $E$ such…
In this paper, we consider {\em mixed curvature} $\mathcal{C}_{a,b}$, which is a convex combination of Ricci curvature and holomorphic sectional curvature introduced by Chu-Lee-Tam. We prove that if a compact complex manifold $M$ admits a…
In a previous paper, we proved that a projective K\"ahler manifold of positive total scalar curvature is uniruled. At the other end of the spectrum, it is a well-known theorem of Campana and Koll\'ar-Miyaoka-Mori that a projective K\"ahler…
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…
Let $X$ be a compact connected K\"ahler--Einstein manifold with $c_1(TX)\, \geq\, 0$. If there is a semistable Higgs vector bundle $(E\,,\theta)$ on $X$ with $\theta\,\not=\,0$, then we show that $c_1(TX)=0$, any $X$ satisfying this…
We establish a link between rational homotopy theory and the problem which vector bundles admit complete Riemannian metric of nonnegative sectional curvature. As an application, we show for a large class of simply-connected nonnegatively…

We generalize a construction of Hitchin to prove that, given any compact K\"ahler manifold $M$ with positive holomorphic sectional curvature and any holomorphic vector bundle $E$ over $M$, the projectivized vector bundle ${\mathbb P}(E)$…
It is well-known that the classical Schwarz lemma yields an explicit comparison of two Hermitian metrics with uniform constant negative curvature bounds through holomorphic maps between complex manifolds. In this paper, we establish Schwarz…
First we confirm a conjecture asserting that any compact K\"ahler manifold $N$ with $\Ric^\perp>0$ must be simply-connected by applying a new viscosity consideration to Whitney's comass of $(p, 0)$-forms. Secondly we prove the projectivity…
This work establishes a structure theorem for compact K\"ahler manifolds with semipositive anticanonical bundle. Up to finite \'etale cover, it is proved that such manifolds split holomorphically and isometrically as a product of Ricci flat…
