It is proved that any smooth manifold $\mathcal M$ of dimension $m$ admits a smooth polynomially convex embedding into $\mathbb C^n$ when $n\geq \lfloor 5m/4\rfloor$. Further, such embeddings are dense in the space of smooth maps from…
We study a notion of strict pseudoconvexity in the context of topologically (often unsmoothably) embedded 3-manifolds in complex surfaces. Topologically pseudoconvex (TPC) 3-manifolds behave similarly to their smooth analogues, cutting out…
The totally-real embeddability of any $2k$-dimensional compact manifold $M$ into $\mathbb C^n$, $n\geq 3k$, has several consequences: the genericity of polynomially convex embeddings of $M$ into $\mathbb C^n$, the existence of $n$ smooth…
We define an isotopy invariant of embeddings N -> R^m of manifolds into Euclidean space. This invariant together with the \alpha-invariant of Haefliger-Wu is complete in the dimension range where the \alpha-invariant could be incomplete. We…
Linear operators preserving the direct sum of polynomial rings P(m)\oplus P(n) are constructed. In the case |m-n|=1 they correspond to atypical representations of the superalgebra osp(2,2). For |m-n|=2 the generic, finite dimensional…
The goal of this work is to prove an embedding theorem for compact almost complex manifolds into complex algebraic varieties. It is shown that every almost complex structure can be realized by the transverse structure to an algebraic…
We consider principal fibre bundles with a given connection and construct almost complex structures on the total space if the adjoint bundle is isomorphic to the tangent bundle of the base. We derive the integrability condition. If the…
We show that if a closed oriented $n$-manifold $M$ has a non-trivial cohomology class of even degree $k$, whose all pullbacks to products of type $S^1\times N$ vanish, then the topological complexity $\mathrm{TC}(M)$ is at least $6$, if $n$…
In this paper, we show the existence of (co-oriented) contact structures on certain classes of $G_2$-manifolds, and that these two structures are compatible in certain ways. Moreover, we prove that any seven-manifold with a spin structure…
This paper proves that on any tamed closed almost complex four-manifold $(M,J)$ whose dimension of $J$-anti-invariant cohomology is equal to the self-dual second Betti number minus one, there exists a new symplectic form compatible with the…
We show that a closed simply connected 8-manifold (9-manifold) of positive sectional curvature on which a 3-torus (4-torus) acts isometrically is homeomorphic to a sphere, a complex projective space or a quaternionic projective plane…
Following T.-J. Li, W. Zhang [Comparing tamed and compatible symplectic cones and cohomological properties of almost complex manifolds, Comm. Anal. Geom.], we continue to study the link between the cohomology of an almost-complex manifold…
We employ combinatorial techniques to present an explicit formula for the coefficients in front of Chern classes involving in the Hattori-Stong integrability conditions. We also give an evenness condition for the signature of stably…
We show the intersection of a compact almost complex subvariety of dimension $4$ and a compact almost complex submanifold of codimension $2$ is a $J$-holomorphic curve. This is a generalization of positivity of intersections for…
This article mainly aims to overview the recent efforts on developing algebraic geometry for an arbitrary compact almost complex manifold. We review the results obtained by the guiding philosophy that a statement for smooth maps between…
In this paper, we obtain results on rigidity of complete Riemannian manifolds with weighted Poincar\'e inequality. As an application, we prove that if $M$ is a complete $\frac{n-2}{n}$-stable minimal hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with…
We construct a family of $(2,n)$-almost Grassmannian structures of regularity $C^1$, each admitting a one-parameter group of strongly essential automorphisms, and each not flat on any neighborhood of the higher-order fixed point. This shows…
In this note we prove that a four-dimensional compact oriented half-confor\-mally flat Riemannian manifold $M^4$ is topologically $\mathbb{S}^{4}$ or $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^{2},$ provided that the sectional curvatures all lie in the interval…
A centrally symmetric $2d$-vertex combinatorial triangulation of the product of spheres $\S^i\times\S^{d-2-i}$ is constructed for all pairs of non-negative integers $i$ and $d$ with $0\leq i \leq d-2$. For the case of $i=d-2-i$, the…
We introduce the notion of a $\theta$-almost twisted Poisson structure on manifolds, which involves incorporating a closed $1$-form $\theta$ into twisted Poisson structures under specific conditions. We provide a characterization of this…
