We prove that the effective cone of automorphic vector bundles on the Siegel modular variety of rank $n$ in characteristic $p$ at a place of good reduction is encoded by the stack of $G$-zips of Pink--Wedhorn--Ziegler. Specifically, we show…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over an algebraically closed field. We show that $A$ is the automorphism group scheme of some smooth projective variety if and only if $A$ has only finitely many automorphisms as an algebraic group. This…

We show that any fibration of a 'special' compact K{\"a}hler manifold X onto an Abelian variety has no multiple fibre in codimension one. This statement strengthens and extends previous results of Kawamata and Viehweg when $\kappa$(X) = 0.…

A smooth variety is said to satisfy Condition (A) if every finite abelian subgroup of its automorphism group has a fixed point. We classify smooth Fano 3-folds that satisfy Condition (A).

The main result of this note essentially is that if the base and fibers of a compact fibration carry Hermitian metrics of positive holomorphic sectional curvature, then so does the total space of the fibration. The proof is based on the use…

K. Grove, L. Verdiani, B. Wilking and W. Ziller gave the first examples of cohomogeneity one manifolds which do not carry invariant metrics with non-negative sectional curvatures. In this paper we generalize their results to a larger…

We construct stable minimal hypersurfaces with simple topology in certain compact $4$-manifolds $X$ with boundary, where $X$ embeds into a smooth manifold homeomorphic to $S^4$. For example, if $X$ is equipped with a Riemannian metric $g$…

A closed symmetric differential of the 1st kind is a differential that locally is the product of closed holomorphic 1-forms. We show that closed symmetric 2-differentials of the 1st kind on a projective manifold $X$ come from maps of $X$ to…

We consider algebraic manifolds $Y$ of dimension 3 over $\Bbb{C}$ with $H^i(Y, \Omega^j_Y)=0$ for all $j\geq 0$ and $i>0$. Let $X$ be a smooth completion of $Y$ with $D=X-Y$, an effective divisor on $X$ with normal crossings. If the…

This paper is concerned with projective rationally connected surfaces $X$ with canonical singularities and having non-zero pluri-forms, i.e. $(\Omega_X^1)^{[\otimes m]}$ has non-zero global sections for some m > 0, where…

We study codimension one holomorphic distributions on the projective three-space, analyzing the properties of their singular schemes and tangent sheaves. In particular, we provide a classification of codimension one distributions of degree…

Let $f:\mathcal{X}\to S$ be a proper holomorphic submersion of complex manifolds and $G$ a complex reductive linear algebraic group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Assume also given a holomorphic principal $G$-bundle $\mathcal{P}$ over…

We study a tower of normal coverings over a compact K\"ahler manifold with holomorphic line bundles. When the line bundle is sufficiently positive, we obtain an effective estimate, which implies the Bergman stability. As a consequence, we…

It is well known that the umbilic points of minimal surfaces in spaces of constant sectional curvature consist only of isolated points unless the surface is totally umbilic on some connected component, as for example the Hopf form is…

We define formal orbifolds over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic as curves together with some branch data. Their \'etale coverings and their fundamental groups are also defined. These fundamental group approximates…

I prove a crystalline characterization of abelian varieties in characteristic $p>0$ amongst the class of varieties with trivial tangent bundle. I show using my characterization that a smooth, projective, ordinary variety with trivial…

We prove that every locally conformally flat metric on a closed, oriented hyperbolic 4-manifold with scalar curvature bounded below by -12 satisfies Schoen's conjecture. We also classify all closed Riemannian 4-manifolds of positive scalar…

Usually bundle gerbes are considered as objects of a 2-groupoid, whose 1-morphisms, called stable isomorphisms, are all invertible. I introduce new 1-morphisms which include stable isomorphisms, trivializations and bundle gerbe modules.…

We show that for any closed Riemannian manifold with dimension at least two and with nonpositive curvature, if it admits an isolated, closed totally geodesic submanifold of codimension one, then its simplicial volume is positive. As a…

In this paper, we investigate some characteristic features of holomorphic semigroups. In particular, we investigate nice examples of holomorphic semigroups whose every left or right ideal includes minimal ideal. These examples are compact…
