We prove that a holomorphic projective connection on a complex projective threefold is either flat, or it is a translation invariant holomorphic projective connection on an abelian threefold. In the second case, a generic translation…
A singular real analytic foliation $\mathcal{F}$ of real codimension one on an $n$-dimensional complex manifold $M$ is Levi-flat if each of its leaves is foliated by immersed complex manifolds of dimension $n-1$. These complex manifolds are…
In this paper, we study the geometry of compact complex manifolds with Levi-Civita Ricci-flat metrics and prove that compact complex surfaces admitting Levi-Civita Ricci-flat metrics are Kahler Calabi-Yau surfaces or Hopf surfaces.
We extend to compact K\"ahler manifolds some classical results on linear representation of fundamental groups of complex projective manifolds. Our approach based on an interversion lemma for fibrations with tori versus general type…
We prove the Lefchetz theorem for CR submanifolds in Hermitian symmetric spaces. As an application we prove the nonexistence of real analytic Levi flat submanifolds in such manifolds.
It is known that a tube over a Kahler submanifold in a complex form is a Hopf hypersurface. In some sense the reverse statement is true: a connected compact generic immersed C^(2n-1) regular Hopf hypersurface in the complex projective plane…
In this paper, we study a second order variational problem for locally convex hypersurfaces, which is the affine invariant analogue of the classical Plateau problem for minimal surfaces. We prove existence, regularity and uniqueness results…
We classify smooth surfaces whose higher cohomologies of i-forms for all i vanish. We show that if such a surface is not affine, then it has essentially two possibilities.
In this paper we prove that no complex surface of general type is diffeomorphic to a rational surface, thereby completing the smooth classification of rational surfaces and the proof of the Van de Ven conjecture on the smooth invariance of…
We study ruled real hypersurfaces whose shape operators have constant squared norm in nonflat complex space forms. In particular, we prove the nonexistence of such hypersurfaces in the projective case. We also show that biharmonic ruled…
The aim of the present paper is the study of real hypersurfaces equipped with the condition $\phi l = l \phi$, $l = R(., \xi, \xi)$.
We conjecture that any scalar-flat K\"ahler surface in which the Weyl tensor acting on 2-forms annihilates the Ricci form must be either Ricci-flat or locally isometric to a Riemannian product of two real surfaces with mutually opposite…
We present a non existence result of complete, Einstein hypersurfaces tangent to the Reeb vector field of a regular Sasakian manifold which fibers onto a complex Stein manifold.
In an earlier paper the authors provided general conditions on a real codimension 2 submanifold $S\subset C^{n}$, $n\ge 3$, such that there exists a possibly singular Levi-flat hypersurface $M$ bounded by $S$. In this paper we consider the…
An (flat) affine $3$-manifold is a $3$-manifold with an atlas of charts to an affine space ${\mathbf R}^3$ with transition maps in the affine transformation group $Aff({\mathbf R}^3)$. Equivalently an affine $3$-manifold is a $3$-manifold…
In a previous work, we classified weakly complete surfaces which admit a real analytic plurisubharmonic exhaustion function; we showed that, if they are not proper over a Stein space, then they admit a pluriharmonic function, with compact…
We consider compact $CR$ manifolds of arbitrary $CR$ codimension that satisfy certain geometric conditions in terms of their Levi form. Over these compact $CR$ manifolds, we construct a deformation of the trivial $CR$ line bundle over $M$…
The relationship between interpolation and separation properties of hypersurfaces in Bargmann-Fock spaces over $\mathbb{C} ^n$ is not well-understood except for $n=1$. We present four examples of smooth affine algebraic hypersurfaces that…
A brief proof of Lie's classification of finite dimensional subalgebras of vector fields on the complex plane that have a proper Levi decomposition is given. The proof uses basic representation theory of sl(2, C). This, combined with…
We prove compactification theorems for some complete K\"ahler manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. Among other things, we prove that a complete noncompact K\"ahler Ricci flat manifold with maximal volume growth and quadratic…
