The existence of some complex geometrical structures on a compact manifold such as complex structures, Kaehler (pseudo-Kaehler) structures often impose certain restrictions on its underling topological or differentiable manifold. In this…

We study the existence of invariant metrics with holonomy $G_{2(2)}^* \subset SO(4,3)$ on compact nilmanifolds, i.e. on compact quotients of nilpotent Lie groups by discrete subgroups. We prove that, up to isomorphism, there exists only one…

We classify holomorphic Cartan geometries on every compact complex curve, and on every compact complex surface which contains a rational curve.

A compact solvmanifold of completely solvable type, i.e. a compact quotient of a completely solvable Lie group by a lattice, has a K\"ahler structure if and only if it is a complex torus. We show more in general that a compact solvmanifold…

We study the existence of three classes of Hermitian metrics on certain types of compact complex manifolds. More precisely, we consider balanced, SKT and astheno-K\"ahler metrics. We prove that the twistor spaces of compact hyperk\"ahler…

A locally conformally K\"ahler (LCK) manifold is a complex manifold $M$ which has a K\"ahler structure on its cover, such that the deck transform group acts on it by homotheties. Assume that the K\"ahler form is exact on the minimal…

We characterize compact locally conformally K\"ahler (l.c.K.) manifolds under the assumption of a purely conformal, holomorphic circle action. As an application, we determine the structure of the compact l.c.K. manifolds with parallel Lee…

This is Part II of a series on noncompact isometry groups of Lorentz manifolds. We have introduced in Part I, a compactification of these isometry groups, and called ``bi-polarized'' those Lorentz manifolds having a ``trivial ''…

A vector field on a Riemannian manifold is called geodesic if its integral curves are reparametrized geodesics. We classify compact K\"ahler manifolds admitting nontrivial real-holomorphic geodesic gradient vector fields that satisfy an…

Each choice of a K\"ahler class on a compact complex manifold defines an action of the Lie algebra $\slt$ on its total complex cohomology. If a nonempty set of such K\"ahler classes is given, then we prove that the corresponding…

We study fundamental groups of toroidal compactifications of non compact ball quotients and show that the Shafarevich conjecture on holomorphic convexity for these complex projective manifolds is satisfied in dimension 2 provided the…

Let $(M,J)$ be a complex manifold of complex dimension $n$. A $p$-K\"ahler structure on $(M,J)$ is a real, closed $(p,p)$-transverse form. In this paper, we address the conjecture of L. Alessandrini and G. Bassanelli on $(n-2)$-K\"ahler…

For a given complex n-fold M we present an explicit construction of all complex (n+1)-folds which are principal holomorphic T2-fibrations over M. For physical applications we consider the case of M being a Calabi-Yau 2-fold. We show that…

We exhibit the first non-trivial concrete examples of Gromov-Hausdorff compactifications of moduli spaces of K\"ahler-Einstein Fano manifolds in all complex dimensions bigger than two (Fano K-moduli spaces). We also discuss potential…

We show that a compact Kahler manifold admitting a nondegenerate holomorphic 2-form valued in a line bundle is a finite cyclic cover of a hyperkahler manifold. With respect to the connection induced by the locally hyperkahler metric, the…

For compact complex manifolds with vanishing first Chern class that are compact torus principal bundles over K\"ahler manifolds, we prove that all holomorphic geometric structures on them, of affine type, are locally homogeneous. For a…

Let Z be a compact complex (2n+1)-manifold which carries a {\em complex contact structure}, meaning a codimension-1 holomorphic sub-bundle D of TZ which is maximally non-integrable. If Z admits a K\"ahler-Einstein metric of positive scalar…

Polyhedral K\"ahler surfaces are a class of complex surfaces, which are flat everywhere except on a two-dimensional skeleton. They are defined as a generalisation of the "gluing a polygon side by side" construction of flat Riemann surfaces.…

This article contains a compression of results from alg-geom/9501001, with most proofs omitted. We prove that every two points of the connected moduli space of holomorphically symplectic manifolds can be connected with so-called ``twistor…

For any irreducible compact homogeneous K\"ahler manifold, we classify the compact tight Lagrangian submanifolds which have the Z_2-homology of a sphere.
