A contact metric manifold is said to be $H$-contact, if the characteristic vector field is harmonic. We prove that the unit tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold $M$ equipped with the standard contact metric structure is $H$-contact if…

In a recent work, Kai Tang conjectured that any compact Hermitian manifold with non-zero constant mixed curvature must be K\"ahler. He confirmed the conjecture in complex dimension $2$ and for Chern K\"ahler-like manifolds in general…

Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface. Let $(E,\theta)$ be a stable Higgs bundle of degree $0$ on $X$. Let $h_{\det(E)}$ denote a flat metric of the determinant bundle $\det(E)$. For any $t>0$, there exists a unique harmonic metric $h_t$ of…

It is shown that if a compact four-dimensional manifold with metric of neutral signature is Jordan-Osserman, then it is either of constant sectional curvature or Ricci flat.

We study compact K\"ahler threefolds X with infinite fundamental group whose universal cover can be compactified. Combining techniques from $L^2$ -theory, Campana's geometric orbifolds and the minimal model program we show that this…

By using analytic method, we prove that there exist rational curves on compact Hermitian manifolds with positive holomorphic bisectional curvature. It confirms a question of S.-T. Yau. It is well-known that Mori proved in \cite{Mori79} that…

A flat complex vector bundle (E,D) on a compact Riemannian manifold (X,g) is stable (resp. polystable) in the sense of Corlette [C] if it has no D-invariant subbundle (resp. if it is the D-invariant direct sum of stable subbundles). It has…

In this note we prove the following result: There is a positive constant $\epsilon(n,\Lambda)$ such that if $M^n$ is a simply connected compact K$\ddot{a}$hler manifold with sectional curvature bounded from above by $\Lambda$, diameter…

Any smooth projective curve embeds into $\mathbb{P}^3$. More generally, any curve embeds into a rationally connected variety of dimension at least three. We prove conversely that if every curve embeds in a threefold $X$, then $X$ is…

We prove the classical Yano-Obata conjecture by showing that the connected component of the group of holomorph-projective transformations of a closed, connected Riemannian K\"ahler manifold consists of isometries unless the metric has…

Suppose that we have a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ with a very ample line bundle $\mathcal{L}$. We prove that any positive definite hermitian form on the space $H^0 (X,\mathcal{L})$ of holomorphic sections can be written as an $L^2$-inner…

We prove that smooth non-klt toric orbifolds are separably Campana rationally connected, extending the result in the klt case. We also show that there always exists a positive characteristic in which a singular weighted projective space,…

In this short note, we prove that on a compact K\"ahler variety $X$ with log terminal singularities and $c_1(X)=0$, any singular Ricci-flat K\"ahler metric has orbifold singularities in restriction to the orbifold locus of $X$.

Given a projective or compact K\"ahler manifold X and a (smooth) hypersurface Y, we study conditions under which $X \setminus Y$ could be Stein. We apply this in particular to the case when X is the projectivization of the so-called…

A long-standing conjecture in complex geometry says that a compact Hermitian manifold with constant holomorphic sectional curvature must be K\"ahler when the constant is non-zero and must be Chern flat when the constant is zero. The…

In this note, we answer positively a question by Belegradek and Kapovitch about the relation between rational homotopy theory and a problem in Riemannian geometry which asks that total spaces of which vector bundles over compact nonnegative…

In this paper we study the class of compact K\"ahler manifolds with positive orthogonal Ricci curvature: $Ric^\perp>0$. First we illustrate examples of K\"ahler manifolds with $Ric^\perp>0$ on K\"ahler C-spaces, and construct ones on…

For complete complex connections on almost complex manifolds we introduce a natural definition of compactification. This is based on almost c--projective geometry, which is the almost complex analogue of projective differential geometry.…

Given a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ it is interesting to ask whether it admits a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (cscK) metric. In this short note we show that there always exist cscK metrics on compact K\"ahler manifolds with nef…

On a smooth connected manifold, we consider all possible locally elliptic and locally bounded measurable coefficient Riemannian metrics called rough Riemannian metrics. We equip this set with an extended metric which is connected if and…
