We give an account of old and new results concerning many types of non-K\"ahler metrics, with focus on the problem of their coexistence on compact complex manifolds, and their behaviour at deformations and blow-up. We also describe a…

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…

A locally conformally K\"ahler (LCK) manifold is a complex manifold covered by a K\"ahler manifold, with the covering group acting by homotheties. We show that if such a compact manifold X admits a holomorphic submersion with positive…

A Hopf manifold is a compact complex manifold of which the universal covering is C^n\{0}. In this note we show that any Hopf manifold admits a locally conformally Kaehler structure (shortly lcK structure), by constructing a complex analytic…

Vaisman's theorem for locally conformally K\"ahler (lcK) compact manifolds states that any lcK metric on a compact complex manifold which admits a K\"ahler metric is, in fact, globally conformally K\"ahler (gcK). In this paper, we extend…

In this note we show that on any compact subdomain of a K\"ahler manifold that admits sufficiently many global holomorphic functions, the products of harmonic functions form a complete set. This gives a positive answer to the linearized…

A manifold M is locally conformally Kahler (LCK) if it admits a Kahler covering with monodromy acting by holomorphic homotheties. For a compact connected group G acting on an LCK manifold by holomorphic automorphisms, an averaging procedure…

In this paper, we study the properties of coverings of locally conformally K\"ahler (LCK) spaces with singularities. We begin by proving that a space is LCK if any only if its universal cover is K\"ahler, thereby generalizing a result from…

The requirement that a (non-Einstein) K\"ahler metric in any given complex dimension $m>2$ be almost-everywhere conformally Einstein turns out to be much more restrictive, even locally, than in the case of complex surfaces. The local…
