This paper generalises Mori's famous theorem about "Projective manifolds with ample tangent bundles" to normal projective varieties in the following way: A normal projective variety over $\mathbb{C}$ with ample tangent sheaf is isomorphic…

We give a simplified proof (in characteristic zero) of the decomposition theorem for complex projective varieties with klt singularities and numerically trivial canonical bundle. The proof rests in an essential way on most of the partial…

We extend Orlov's result that certain functors between derived categories of smooth projective varieties are Fourier--Mukai transforms to the case when those varieties are smooth and proper.

In this paper we introduce higher extremal Kahler metrics. We provide an example of the same on a minimal ruled surface. We also prove a perturbation result that implies that there are non-trivial examples of higher constant scalar…

We show that a smooth projective variety admits a Chow-Kunneth decomposition if the cohomology has level at most one except for the middle degree. This can be extended to the relative case in a weak sense if the morphism has only isolated…

For a discrete group $\Gamma$, we study vector bundles $E_\rho$ on compact subsets of $B\Gamma$ associated to almost representations $\rho:\Gamma \to U(n)$. We compute the first Chern class of $E_\rho$ in terms of $\rho$. When $\rho$ is…

Some sharp inequalities of Gruss type for sequences of vectors in real or complex normed linear spaces are obtained. Applications for the discrete Fourier and Mellin transform are given. Estimates for polynomials with coefficients in normed…

Let $X$ be an $n$-dimensional normal $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial projective variety with canonical singularities and Picard number one such that $X$ is smooth in codimension two, $-K_X$ is ample and $n\geq 2$. We prove that $X$ satisfies the…

Let $X$ be a minimal projective Gorenstein 3-fold of general type. We give two applications of an inequality between $\chi (\omega_X)$ and $p_g(X)$: 1) Assume that the canonical map $\Phi_{|K_X|}$ is of fiber type. Let $F$ be a smooth model…

We give a classification of non-orthogonality classes of trivial order 1 strongly minimal sets in differentially closed fields. A central idea is the introduction of $\tau$-forms, functions on the prolongation of a variety which are…

The crystalline Chern classes of the value of a locally free crystal vanish on a smooth variety defined over a perfect field. Out of this we conclude new cases of de Jong's conjecture relating the geometric \'etale fundamental group of a…

Let $(X, \Delta)$ be a log Fano pair with standard coefficients. We show that if it satisfies the equality case in the Miyaoka-Yau inequality, then its orbifold universal cover is a projective space.

The objective of the present article is to construct the first examples of (non-trivial) non-commutative projective Calabi-Yau schemes in the sense of Artin and Zhang.

We define integral geometric analogues of the Chern classes for real vector bundle on a smooth real variety. More precisely, we define the Chern densities of a real bundle. These densities are analogues of the Chern forms of a complex…

We consider classes of noncompact n-folds with trivial canonical bundle, that are linear foliations on nonsingular projective varieties, in general without a projection to the base. We obtain them as first-order deformations of total spaces…

In this paper, we investigate the problem of prescribing Chern scalar curvatures on complete noncompact Hermitian manifolds, and generalize the Aviles-McOwen's existence results [J. Differential Geom., 21 (1985): 269-281] from Poincar\'e…

We construct a good compactification of the variety of irreducible projective plane curves of degree n with d nodes and no other singularities.

We introduce arrangements of rational sections over curves. They generalize line arrangements on P^2. Each arrangement of d sections defines a single curve in P^{d-2} through the Kapranov's construction of \bar{M}_{0,d+1}. We show a…

We prove a new restriction theorem for semistable sheaves on varieties in all characteristics strengthening previous results. We also prove restriction theorem for strong semistability for varieties with some non-negativity constrains on…
