We study the positive Hermitian curvature flow on the space of left-invariant metrics on complex Lie groups. We show that in the nilpotent case, the flow exists for all positive times and subconverges in the Cheeger-Gromov sense to a…

Let $(Y, d)$ be a Gromov-Hausdorff limit of $n$-dimensional closed shrinking K\"ahler-Ricci solitons with uniformly bounded volumes and Futaki invariants. We prove that off a closed subset of codimension at least 4, Y is a smooth manifold…

We prove that quasi-plurisubharmonic envelopes with prescribed analytic singularities in suitable big cohomology classes on compact K\"ahler manifolds have the optimal $C^{1,1}$ regularity on a Zariski open set. This also proves regularity…

We investigate properties of the pseudo-Riemannian volume, entropy, and diameter for convex cocompact representations $\rho : \Gamma \to \mathrm{SO}(p,q+1)$ of closed $p$-manifold groups. In particular: We provide a uniform lower bound of…

We show that, in dimension at least $4$, the set of locally finite simplicial volumes of oriented connected open manifolds is $[0, \infty]$. Moreover, we consider the case of tame open manifolds and some low-dimensional examples.

Given a cohomology $(1,1)$-class $\{\beta\}$ of compact Hermitian manifold $(X,\omega)$ possessing a bounded potential and fixed a model potential $\phi$, motivated by Darvas-Di Nezza-Lu and Li-Wang-Zhou's work, we show that degenerate…

Let N be a compact, orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold with connected, totally geodesic boundary of genus 2. If N has Heegaard genus at least 5, then its volume is greater than 6.89. The proof of this result uses the following dichotomy:…

Given a compact complex manifold $X$, we study the existence and the uniqueness of weak solutions to degenerate Monge-Amp\`ere equations on $X$ with prescribed singularities when the reference form is semipositive and big, while the right…

This paper contains a purely topological theorem and a geometric application. The topological theorem states that if M is a simple closed orientable 3-manifold such that \pi_1(M) contains a genus g surface group and H_1(M;Z/2Z) has rank at…

The Monge-Amp\`ere type equations over bounded convex domains arise in a host of geometric applications. In this paper, we focus on the Dirichlet problem for a class of Monge-Amp\`ere type equations, which can be degenerate or singular near…

We prove a $C^{1,1}$ estimate for solutions of complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations on compact K\"ahler manifolds with possibly nonempty boundary, in a degenerate cohomology class. This strengthens previous estimates of Phong-Sturm. As…

We show that Schur classes of ample vector bundles on smooth projective varieties satisfy Hodge-Riemann relations on $H^{p,q}$ under the assumption that $H^{p-2,q-2}$ vanishes. More generally, we study Hodge-Riemann polynomials, which are…

We show that on any weakly pseudoconvex $B$-regular domain, the classical Dirichlet problem for the complex Monge--Amp\`ere equation with $\mathcal{C}^\infty$-smooth data does not in general admit $\mathcal{C}^{1,1}$-smooth solutions. This…

A wide and natural class of closed currents - which are differences of positive closed currents - can be constructed by pulling back smooth closed forms using rational maps. These currents are very singular in general, and hence defining…

This paper develops a unified framework for estimating the volume of a set in $\mathbb{R}^d$ based on observations of points uniformly distributed over the set. The framework applies to all classes of sets satisfying one simple axiom: a…

In this paper, we establish several geometric properties of boundary sections of convex solutions to the Monge-Amp\`ere equations: the engulfing and separating properties and volume estimates. As applications, we prove a covering lemma of…

In this paper, we study the deformation limit of compact Kahler manifolds. We show that the limit to be a manifold in the Fujiki class C is equivalent to the finiteness of the upper volume. We also prove the Streets-Tian conjecture for a…

We develop a new approach to $L^{\infty}$-a priori estimates for degenerate complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations on complex manifolds. It only relies on compactness and envelopes properties of quasi-plurisubharmonic functions. Our method allows…

Let $M$ be a 4-dimensional open manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature. In this paper, we prove that if the universal cover of $M$ has Euclidean volume growth, then the fundamental group $\pi_1(M)$ is finitely generated. This result…
