We show that a compact manifold admitting a Killing foliation with positive transverse curvature fibers over finite quotients of spheres or weighted complex projective spaces, provided that the singular foliation defined by the closures of…
Many examples of nonpositively curved closed manifolds arise as blow-ups of projective hyperplane arrangements. If the hyperplane arrangement is associated to a finite reflection group W, and the blow-up locus is W-invariant, then the…
We prove that each irreducible component of the cohomology jump loci of rank one local systems over a compact K\"ahler manifold contains at least one torsion point. This generalizes a theorem of Simpson for smooth complex projective…
We consider the Poisson sigma model associated to a Poisson manifold. The perturbative quantization of this model yields the Kontsevich star product formula. We study here the classical model in the Hamiltonian formalism. The phase space is…
In this paper we prove the unobstructedness of the deformation of integral coisotropic submanifolds in symplectic manifolds, which can be viewed as a natural generalization of results of Weinstein for Lagrangian submanifolds.
We show that the orbifold fundamental group of an effective compact K{\"a}hler orbifold with nef anticanonical bundle has polynomial growth, which generalizes M.P \u{a}un's results for manifolds [P \u{a}u97, Theorem 1,Theorem 2]
We resolve the question of the existence of a finite 2-complex with the same fundamental group and Euler characteristic as a Klein bottle with a bubble, but homotopically distinct to it.
We study neighbourhoods of submanifolds in generalized complex geometry. Our first main result provides sufficient criteria for such a submanifold to admit a neighbourhood on which the generalized complex structure is B-field equivalent to…
Let $\alpha: X \to Y$ be a finite cover of smooth curves. Beauville conjectured that the pushforward of a general vector bundle under $\alpha$ is semistable if the genus of $Y$ is at least $1$ and stable if the genus of $Y$ is at least $2$.…
Let (M, {\pi} ) be a Poisson manifold. A Poisson submanifold $P \in M$ gives rise to an algebroid $AP \rightarrow P$, to which we associate certain chomology groups which control formal deformations of {\pi} around P . Assuming that these…
We introduce linear holonomy on Poisson manifolds. The linear holonomy of a Poisson structure generalizes the linearized holonomy on a regular symplectic foliation. However, for singular Poisson structures the linear holonomy is defined for…
In a previous paper by the author a universal ring of invariants for algebraic structures of a given type was constructed. This ring is a polynomial algebra that is generated by certain trace diagrams. It was shown that this ring admits the…
We introduce a general theory of twisting algebraic structures based on actions of a bialgebra. These twists are closely related to algebraic deformations and also to the theory of quasi-triangular bialgebras. In particular, a deformation…
We extend the canonical cell decomposition due to Epstein and Penner of a hyperbolic manifold with cusps to the strictly convex setting. It follows that a sufficiently small deformation of the holonomy of a finite volume strictly convex…
An old theorem of Weil and Kodaira says that for a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ there is a closed logarithmic $1$-form with residue divisor $D$ if and only if $D$ is homologous to zero in $H_{2n-2}(X,\mathbb C)$. In the first part of this…
In this paper we present a series of seemingly unrelated results of Complex Analysis which are in fact connected via a different approach to their proofs using the results of Errett Bishop of volumes and limits of analytic varieties. We…
First three sections of this overview paper cover classical topics of deformation theory of associative algebras and necessary background material. We then analyze algebraic structures of the Hochschild cohomology and describe the relation…
For every nontrivial free homotopy class $\alpha$ of loops in every closed connected Riemannian manifold $M$, we prove existence of a noncontractible 1-periodic orbit, for every compactly supported time-dependent Hamiltonian on the open…
The aim of this paper is to classify compact, simply connected K\"ahler manifolds which admit totally geodesic, holomorphic complex homothetic foliation by curves.
In this note we observe that while all overtwisted contact structures on compact 3--manifolds are supported by planar open book decompositions, not all contact structures are. This has relevance to invariants of contact structures and also…
