We investigate the cohomology of a certain elliptic complex defined on a compact quaternionic-K\"{a}hler manifold with negative scalar curvature. We show that this particular complex is exact, with the possible exception of one term.
We show that if $M = X \times Y$ is the product of two complex manifolds (of positive dimensions), then $M$ does not admit any complete K\"ahler metric with bisectional curvature bounded between two negative constants. More generally, a…
In an earlier work, we investigated some consequences of the existence of a K\"ahler metric of negative holomorphic sectional curvature on a projective manifold. In the present work, we extend our results to the case of semi-negative (i.e.,…
A quaternionic K\"ahler manifold M is called {\it positive} if it has positive scalar curvature. The main purpose of this paper is to prove several connectedness theorems for quaternionic immersions in a quaternionic K\"ahler manifold, e.g.…
We establish a new algebraic characterization of sectional curvature bounds $\sec\geq k$ and $\sec\leq k$ using only curvature terms in the Weitzenb\"ock formulae for symmetric $p$-tensors. By introducing a symmetric analogue of the…
In this work we consider compact K\"ahler manifolds with non-positive mixed curvature which is a "convex combination" of Ricci curvature and holomorphic sectional curvature. We show that in this case, the canonical line bundle is nef.…
We prove that all currently known examples of manifolds with nonnegative sectional curvature satisfy a stronger condition: their curvature operator can be modified with a 4-form to become positive-semidefinite.
Starting with a concise review of quaternionic geometry and quaternionic K{\"a}hler manifolds, we define a transversely quaternionic K{\"a}hler foliation. Then we formulate and prove the foliated versions of the now classical results of…
We show that if a compact complex manifold admits a K\"ahler metric whose holomorphic sectional curvature is everywhere non positive and strictly negative in at least one point, then its canonical bundle is positive.
We show that a compact Kahler manifold with nonpositive holomorphic sectional curvature has nef canonical bundle. If the holomorphic sectional curvature is negative then it follows that the canonical bundle is ample, confirming a conjecture…
This article surveys results for Riemannian manifolds of positive and non-negative sectional curvature with symmetries.
We prove that a bounded domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ admitting a complete K\"ahler metric with negatively pinched holomorphic bisectional curvature near the boundary, admits a complete K\"ahler metric with negatively pinched holomorphic…
In a recent work, Kai Tang conjectured that any compact Hermitian manifold with non-zero constant mixed curvature must be K\"ahler. He confirmed the conjecture in complex dimension $2$ and for Chern K\"ahler-like manifolds in general…
In this note, We proved that a compact Sasakian manifold $( M, {\xi}, {\eta}, {\Phi} , g )$ with negative transverse holomorphic sectional curvature must have has a Sasakian structure $( {\xi}, {\eta} , {\Phi} , g )$ with negative…
In this note, we introduce a new type of positivity condition for the curvature of a Hermitian manifold, which generalizes the notion of nonnegative quadratic orthogonal bisectional curvature to the non-K\"ahler case. We derive a Bochner…
We describe explicitly all quaternionic contact hypersurfaces (qc-hypersurfaces) in the flat quaternion space $\Hnn$ and the quaternion projective space. We show that up to a quaternionic affine transformation a qc-hypersurface in $\Hnn$ is…
We give a mathematical exposition of the Page metric, and introduce an efficient coordinate system for it. We carefully examine the submanifolds of the underlying smooth manifold, and show that the Page metric does not have positive…
We prove that compact quaternionic-K\"ahler manifolds of positive scalar curvature admit no almost complex structure, even in the weak sense, except for the complex Grassmannians $Gr_2(C^{n+2})$. We also prove that irreducible inner…
In this paper, we consider {\em mixed curvature} $\mathcal{C}_{a,b}$, which is a convex combination of Ricci curvature and holomorphic sectional curvature introduced by Chu-Lee-Tam. We prove that if a compact complex manifold $M$ admits a…
B. Wilking introduced the dual foliation associated to a metric foliation in a Riemannian manifold with nonnegative sectional curvature, and proved that when the curvature is strictly positive, the dual foliation contains a single leaf, so…
