Starting from the problem of describing cohomological invariants of Poisson manifolds we prove in a sense a ``no-go'' result: the differential graded Lie algebra of de Rham forms on a smooth Poisson manifold is formal.

We show that the set of singular holomorphic foliations of the projective spaces with split tangent sheaf and with good singular set is open in the space of holomorphic foliations. As applications we present a generalization of a result by…

Cohomology of a compatible family of Lie algebroids defined on a family of transverse manifolds is defined. A sheaf of differential forms on a compatible family of Lie algebroids defined over regular open subsets of a simplicial complex is…

Motivated by the work of Cappell, Deturck, Gluch and Miller, we extend the notion of cohomology of harmonic forms (of a compact manifold with boundary) to the abstract setting of Hilbert complexes. Then, we present some geometric…

In this paper we study the question of fragility and robustness of leafwise intersections of coisotropic submanifolds. Namely, we construct a closed hypersurface and a sequence of Hamiltonians $C^0$-converging to zero such that the…

These are lecture notes for a course to be held. They provide a full discussion of certain analytic aspects of the uniformisation theory of (singular) holomorphic foliations by curves on compact Kaehler manifolds, with emphasis on their…

We define a complex whose cohomology group of order 1 contains the infinitesimal deformations of a Levi flat structure on a smooth manifold. In the case of real analytic Levi flat structures, this cohomology group is the product of the…

We prove metric rigidity for complete manifolds supporting solutions of certain second order differential systems, thus extending classical works on a characterization of space-forms. In the route, we also discover new characterizations of…

In this paper we prove Gray stability for compact contact groupoids and we use it to prove stability results for deformations of the induced Jacobi bundles.

We prove that the higher harmonic signature of an even dimensional oriented Riemannian foliation of a compact Riemannian manifold with coefficients in a leafwise U(p,q)-flat complex bundle is a leafwise homotopy invariant. We also prove the…

We use cross ratios to describe second real continuous bounded cohomology for locally compact topological groups. We also derive a rigidity result for cocycles with values in the isometry group of a proper hyperbolic geodesic metric space.

Compact K\"{a}hler manifolds satisfy several nice Hodge-theoretic properties such as the Hodge symmetry, the Hard Lefschetz property and the Hodge-Riemann bilinear relations, etc. In this note, we investigate when such nice properties hold…

Let $M= G/\Gamma$ be a compact nilmanifold endowed with an invariant complex structure. We prove that, on an open set of any connected component of the moduli space ${\cal C} ({\frak g})$ of invariant complex structures on $M$, the…

The $L_\infty$-algebra is an algebraic structure suitable for describing deformation problems. In this paper we construct one $L_\infty$-algebra, which turns out to be a differential graded Lie algebra, to control the deformations of Lie…

We study the geometry of compact strong HKT and, more generally, compact BHE manifolds. We prove that any compact BHE manifold with full holonomy must be K\"ahler and we establish a similar result for strong HKT manifolds. Additionally, we…

Let f : Y -> X be a morphism of complex projective manifolds, and let F be a subsheaf of the tangent bundle which is closed under the Lie bracket, but not necessarily a foliation. This short paper contains an elementary and very geometric…

We obtain a classification of codimension one holomorphic foliations on $\mathbb P^4$ with degenerate Gauss maps.

This is the first part of a series on non-compact groups acting isometrically on compact Lorentz manifolds. This subject was recently investigated by many authors. In the present part we investigate the dynamics of affine, and especially…

We establish a rigidity result for the unstable foliations of transitive Anosov flows on 3-manifolds: if the unstable foliations of two such flows are equivalent (that is, if there exists a homeomorphism mapping one foliation to the other),…

The aim of this paper is to show that any stable complete Riemannian flag on a compact and connected manifold is conjugated to a flag of homogenus foliations (see Definitions). Also, we give a characterization of Riemannian flags that…
