Motivated by a general question addressed by Mario Baldassarri in 1956, we discuss characterizations of the Pseudo-Abelian Varieties introduced by Roth, and we introduce a first new notion, of Manifolds Isogenous to a k-Torus Product: the…

We study the class of compact K\"ahler manifolds with trivial canonical bundle and the property that the cohomology of the trivial line bundle is generated by one element. If the square of the generator is zero, we get the class of strict…

In this note, we discuss the concept of pseudoeffective vector bundle and also introduce pseudoeffective torsion-free sheaves over compact K\"ahler manifolds. We show that a pseudoeffective reflexive sheaf over a compact K\"ahler manifold…

We characterize Kaehler manifolds with trivial logarithmic tangent bundle (with respect to a divisor D) as a class of certain compatifications of complex semi-tori.

We prove that any compact K\"ahler 3-dimensional manifold which has no non-trivial complex subvarieties is a torus. This is a very special case of a general conjecture on the structure of 'simple manifolds', central in the bimeromorphic…

In this article, we give numerical restrictions on the Chern classes of Ulrich bundles on higher-dimensional manifolds, which are inspired by the results of Casnati in the case of surfaces. As a by-product, we prove that the only projective…

This article is concerned with Chern class and Chern number inequalities on polarized manifolds and nef vector bundles. For a polarized pair $(M,L)$ with $L$ very ample, our first main result is a family of sharp Chern class inequalities.…

We prove that the compact Kaehler manifolds with first Chern class nonnegative that admit holomorphic parabolic geometries are the flat bundles of rational homogeneous varieties over complex tori. We also prove that the compact Kaehler…

In this paper, we prove that a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ with pseudo-effective (resp. singular positively curved) tangent bundle admits a smooth (resp. locally constant) rationally connected fibration $\phi \colon X \to Y$ onto a finite…

We consider closed manifolds that admit a metric locally isometric to a product of symmetric planes. For such manifolds, we prove that the Euler characteristic is an obstruction to the existence of flat structures, confirming an old…

I prove a crystalline characterization of abelian varieties in characteristic $p>0$ amongst the class of varieties with trivial tangent bundle. I show using my characterization that a smooth, projective, ordinary variety with trivial…

In this note, we investigate the Chern classes of flat bundles in the arithmetic Deligne Cohomology, introduced by Green-Griffiths, Asakura-Saito. We show nontriviality of the Chern classes in some cases and the proof also indicates that…

The Torelli group $\mathcal T(X)$ of a closed smooth manifold $X$ is the subgroup of the mapping class group $\pi_0(\mathrm{Diff}^+(X))$ consisting of elements which act trivially on the integral cohomology of $X$. In this note we give…

We prove that smooth, projective, $K$-trivial, weakly ordinary varieties over a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$ are not geometrically uniruled. We also show a singular version of our theorem, which is sharp in multiple aspects. Our…

We provide formulas for the Chern classes of linear submanifolds of the moduli spaces of Abelian differentials and hence for their Euler characteristic. This includes as special case the moduli spaces of k-differentials, for which we set up…

In this paper we prove a characterization of quotients of Abelian varieties by the actions of finite groups that are free in codimension-one via some vanishing conditions on the orbifold Chern classes. The characterization is given among a…

We study non-Kaehler manifolds with trivial logarithmic tangent bundle. We show that each such manifold arises as a fiber bundle with a compact complex parallelizable manifold as basis and a toric variety as fiber.

In this paper we study almost complex manifolds admitting a quasi-K\"ahler Chern-flat metric (Chern-flat means that the holonomy of the Chern connection is trivial). We prove that in the compact case such manifolds are all nilmanifolds.…

Kawamata proposed a conjecture predicting that every nef and big line bundle on a smooth projective variety with trivial first Chern class has nontrivial global sections. We verify this conjecture for several cases, including (i) all…

Let ${\mathbb F}_0$ be an algebraically closed field, with $char({\mathbb F}_0)=0$. In this article, for prime numbers $p\geq 2$, we construct smooth affine algebras $B$ over ${\mathbb F}_0$, with $\dim B=p+2$. Further, we construct…
