Let $f : X \rightarrow B$ be a proper flat dominant morphism between two smooth quasi-projective complex varieties $X$ and $B$. Assume that there exists an integer $l$ such that all closed fibres $X_b$ of $f$ satisfy $CH_j(X_b) = \Q$ for…

Let X be e quasi-compact and semi-separated scheme. If every at quasi- coherent sheaf has finite cotorsion dimension, we prove that X is n-perfect for some n > 0. If X is coherent and n-perfect(not necessarily of finite krull dimension), we…

For a tuple $A=(A_1,\ A_2,\ ...,\ A_n)$ of elements in a unital algebra ${\mathcal B}$ over $\mathbb{C}$, its {\em projective spectrum} $P(A)$ or $p(A)$ is the collection of $z\in \mathbb{C}^n$, or respectively $z\in \mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ such…

Main Theorem (3.3): Let $M$ be a compact four-dimensional manifold either with curvature, positive on complex isotropic two-planes, or self-dual of positive scalar curvature. If $\pi_1 (M)$ admits a nontrivial unitary representation, and…

This article is devoted to examples of (orbifold) K\"ahler groups from the perspective of the so-called Shafarevich conjecture on holomorphic convexity. It aims at pointing out that every quasi-projective complex manifold with an…

Small codimensional embedded manifolds defined by equations of small degree are Fano and covered by lines. They are complete intersections exactly when the variety of lines through a general point is so and has the right codimension. This…

We show that every Vaisman manifold with large first Betti number and vanishing first basic Chern class is diffeomorphic to a Kodaira-Thurston manifold. Furthermore, its complex structure is left-invariant, the characteristic foliation is…

On a Hermitian manifold we construct a symmetric $(1,1)$- tensor $H$ using the torsion and the curvature of the Chern connection. On a compact balanced Hermitian manifold we find necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of the tensor…

In our previous work, we introduced a special type of Hermitian metrics called {\em torsion-critical,} which are non-K\"ahler critical points of the $L^2$-norm of Chern torsion over the space of all Hermitian metrics with unit volume on a…

The existence of a vector field on a compact Kaehler manifold with nonempty zero locus and the properties of this zero locus strongly influence the geometry of the manifold. For example, J. Wahl proved that the existence of a vector field…

A complex projective manifold is rationally connected, resp. rationally simply connected, if finite subsets are connected by a rational curve, resp. the spaces parameterizing these connecting rational curves are themselves rationally…

We prove that for any log-concave random vector $X$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with mean zero and identity covariance, $$ \mathbb{E} (|X| - \sqrt{n})^2 \leq C $$ where $C > 0$ is a universal constant. Thus, most of the mass of the random vector $X$…

We show how to extend Epstein's algebraic transversality principles for rational maps $f$ of ${\mathbb P}^1_{\mathbb C}$ to infinite forward invariant subsets of the Fatou set. The key, at least conceptually, to doing this is to have a…

We introduce and investigate the notion of (strong) $K^n_G$-manifolds, where $G$ is an abelian group. One of the result related to that notion (Theorem 3.4) implies the following partial answer to the Bing-Borsuk problem \cite{bb}, whether…

We prove an unconditional (but slightly weakened) version of the main result of our earlier paper with the same title, which was, starting from dimension $4$, conditional to the Lefschetz standard conjecture. Let $X$ be a variety with…

We consider a RCD$(-(N-1),N)$ space $(X,d,\mathcal{H}^N)$ with local bounded covering geometry. The first result is related to Gromov's almost flat manifold theorem. Specifically, if for every point $\tilde{p}$ in the universal cover…

We prove the Demailly--Peternell--Schneider conjecture in positive characteristic: if $X$ is a smooth projective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ with $-K_X$ is nef, then the Albanese morphism $a: X \to A$…

We prove a generalization of the Shapiro-Shapiro conjecture on Wronskians of polynomials, allowing the Wronskian to have complex conjugate roots. We decompose the real Schubert cell according to the number of real roots of the Wronski map,…

In this paper we prove a new generic vanishing theorem for $X$ a complete homogeneous variety with respect to an action of a connected algebraic group. Let $A, B_0\subset X$ be locally closed affine subvarieties, and assume that $B_0$ is…

Given a Hermitian holomorphic vector bundle over a complex manifold, consider its flag bundles with the associated universal vector bundles endowed with the induced metrics. We prove that the universal formula for the push-forward of a…
