We study semi-Riemannian submanifolds of arbitrary codimension in a Lie group $G$ equipped with a bi-invariant metric. In particular, we show that, if the normal bundle of $M \subset G$ is closed under the Lie bracket, then any normal…

In a previous paper, \cite{Berndtsson}, we have studied a property of subharmonic dependence on a parameter of Bergman kernels for a family of weighted $L^2$-spaces of holomorphic functions. Here we prove a result on the curvature of a…

We bound the codimension of components of the nonabelian Hodge loci in the relative de Rham moduli space over $\shm_{g,n}$ in terms of the rank and level of a complex variation of Hodge structure. If the rank is $r$ and the level is $\ell$,…

We define a complex connection on a real hypersurface of $\C^{n+1}$ which is naturally inherited from the ambient space. Using a system of Codazzi-type equations, we classify connected real hypersurfaces in $\C^{n+1}$, $n\ge 2$, which are…

We estimate from below the expected Betti numbers of real hypersurfaces taken at random in a smooth real projective n-dimensional manifold. These random hypersurfaces are chosen in the linear system of a large d-th power of a real ample…

Let $X_{\mathbb{C}}$ be a smooth real affine variety with compact real points $X_{\mathbb{R}}$. We show that $X_{\mathbb{C}}$ is diffeomorphic to the normal bundle of $X_{\mathbb{R}}$ provided that $X_{\mathbb{C}}$ admits a complete…

We prove that every closed, smooth $n$-manifold $X$ admits a Riemannian metric together with a smooth, transversely oriented CMC foliation if and only if its Euler characteristic is zero, where by CMC foliation we mean a codimension-one,…

In this paper, we consider a Riemannian foliation whose normal bundle carries a parallel or harmonic basic form. We estimate the norm of the O'Neill tensor in terms of the curvature data of the whole manifold. Some examples are then given.

On Hermitian manifolds, the second Ricci curvature tensors of various metric connections are closely related to the geometry of Hermitian manifolds. By refining the Bochner formulas for any Hermitian complex vector bundle (Riemannain real…

A singular (or Hermann) foliation on a smooth manifold $M$ can be seen as a subsheaf of the sheaf $\mathfrak{X}$ of vector fields on $M$. We show that if this singular foliation admits a resolution (in the sense of sheaves) consisting of…

We study Ricci curvature properties of Hessian metrics on the leaves of the codimension-one foliation $\mathcal{F}_\omega = \ker\,\omega$ generated by the first Koszul form $\omega$ of a closed oriented Hessian manifold. Our main result…

We study Hermitian geometrically formal metrics on compact complex manifolds, focusing on Dolbeault, Bott-Chern, and Aeppli cohomologies. We establish topological and cohomological obstructions to their existence and we provide a detailed…

Let $M$ be a submanifold of a Riemannian manifold $(N,g)$. $M$ induces a subbundle $O(M,N)$ of adapted frames over $M$ of the bundle of orthonormal frames $O(N)$. Riemannian metric $g$ induces natural metric on $O(N)$. We study the geometry…

Motivated by the recent work of Wu and Yau on the ampleness of canonical line bundle for compact K\"ahler manifolds with negative holomorphic sectional curvature, we introduce a new curvature notion called $\textbf{real bisectional…

We study connections on hermitian modules, and show that metric connections exist on regular hermitian modules; i.e finitely generated projective modules together with a non-singular hermitian form. In addition, we develop an index calculus…

Let $C$ be a smooth elliptic curve embedded in a smooth complex surface $X$ such that $C$ is a leaf of a suitable holomorphic foliation of $X$. We investigate complex analytic properties of a neighborhood of $C$ under some assumptions on…

Given a line bundle L on a smooth projective curve over the complex numbers, we show that a general extension E of L by the trivial line bundle is very stable: line bundles contained in E have degree much less than half the degree of E.…

This note is about the interplay between the almost-hermitian and Riemannian geometries of a manifold. These geometries can be seen to interact through curvature. The main result is an obstruction equation to the integrability of…

Let $(M,g_M,\mathcal F)$ be a closed, connected Riemannian manifold with a Riemannian foliation $\mathcal F$ of nonzero constant transversal scalar curvature. When $M$ admits a transversal nonisometric conformal field, we find some…
