We prove that if $B$ is a $k$-positive holomorphic line bundle on a compact hyperk\"ahler manifold $M,$ then $H^p (M,\Omega^q\otimes B)=0$ for $p>n+[\frac{k}{2}]$ and any nonnegative integer $q.$ In a special case $k=0$ and $q=0$ we recover…

We prove that the zeroth L^2-Betti number of a compact quantum group vanishes unless the underlying C*-algebra is finite dimensional and that the zeroth L^2-homology itself is non-trivial exactly when the quantum group is coamenable.

In this paper, we first generalize to any hyper-K\"ahler manifold with nonzero third Betti number results proved by O'Grady for hyper-K\"ahler manifolds of generalized Kummer type. In the second part, we restrict to hyper-K\"ahler manifolds…

We construct a compact manifold with a closed $G_2$ structure not admitting any torsion-free $G_2$ structure, which is non-formal and has first Betti number $b_1=1$. We develop a method of resolution for orbifolds that arise as a quotient…

Using Seiberg-Witten theory, it is shown that any Kaehler metric of constant negative scalar curvature on a compact 4-manifold M minimizes the L^2-norm of scalar curvature among Riemannian metrics compatible with a fixed decomposition…

We prove that a closed oriented Einstein four-manifold is either anti-self-dual or (after passing to a double Riemann cover if necessary) K\"ahler-Einstein, provided that $\lambda_2 \geq -\frac{S}{12}$, where $\lambda_2$ is the middle…

We classify compact self-dual almost-K\"ahler four manifolds of positive type and zero type. In particular, using LeBrun's result, we show that any self-dual almost-K\"ahler metric on a manifold which is diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{CP}_{2}$…

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…
