We establish a new version of the CR almost Schur Lemma which gives an estimation of the pseudohermitian scalar curvature on a compact strictly pseudoconvex pseudohermitian manifold to be a constant in terms of the norm of the traceless…

We introduce a partial positivity notion for algebraic maps via the defect of semismallness. This positivity notion is modeled on $m$-positivity in the analytic setting and $m$-ampleness in the geometric setting. Using this positivity…

We introduce a new Hermitian metric on the cohomology ring of compact K\"ahlerian manifolds with a pair $(v,w)$ satisfying certain Hodge-Riemann relations. An Hermitian metric on the exterior algebra of the cotangent bundle is also defined…
