Given a K\"ahler manifold $(Z,J,\omega)$ and a compact real submanifold $M\subset Z$, we study the properties of the gradient map associated with the action of a noncompact real reductive Lie group ${\rm G}$ on the space of probability…

We construct examples of compact hyperkaehler manifolds with torsion (HKT manifolds) which are not homogeneous and not locally conformal hyperkaehler. Consider a total space T of a tangent bundle over a hyperkaehler manifold M. The manifold…

We provide several results on the existence of metrics of non-negative sectional curvature on vector bundles over certain cohomogeneity one manifolds and homogeneous spaces up to suitable stabilization. Beside explicit constructions of the…

Let G be a complex reductive group and K a maximal compact subgroup. If X is a smooth projective G-variety, with a fixed (not necessarily integral) K-invariant Kaehler form, then the K-action is Hamiltonian. Let M be the zero fiber of the…

We use operator algebras and operator theory to obtain new result concerning Berezin quantization of compact K\"ahler manifolds. Our main tool is the notion of subproduct systems of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, which enables all…

Let K be a compact semi-simple Lie group. We classify K-invariant Kaehler structures on the space Kc/(P,P), where Kc is the complexification of K, P is a parabolic subgroup of Kc, and (P,P) the commutator subgroup. For each Kaehler…

In the first part of this paper, we consider, in the context of an arbitrary hyperplane arrangement, the map between compactly supported cohomology to the usual cohomology of a local system. A formula (i.e., an explicit algebraic de Rham…

We develop a new framework for noncommutative differential geometry based on double derivations. This leads to the notion of moment map and of Hamiltonian reduction in noncommutative symplectic geometry. For any smooth associative algebra…

Given compact Lie groups H\subset G, we study the space of G-invariant metrics on G/H with nonnegative sectional curvature. For an intermediate subgroup K between H and G, we derive conditions under which enlarging the Lie algebra of K…

We define a moment map associated to a smooth torus action on a smooth manifold, without a two-form. We define cobordisms of such structures, allowing non compact manifolds as long as the moment maps are proper. We prove that a compact…

Exploiting a notion of Kaehler structure on a stratified space introduced elsewhere we show that, in the Kaehler case, reduction after quantization coincides with quantization after reduction: Key tools developed for that purpose are…

In this paper, we study Higgs bundles on non-compact Hermitian manifolds. Under some assumptions for the underlying Hermitian manifolds which are not necessarily K\"ahler, we solve the Hermitian-Einstein equation on analytically stable…

We show that for $n>2$ a compact locally conformally K\"ahler manifold $(M^{2n},g,J)$ carrying a non-trivial parallel vector field is either Vaisman, or globally conformally K\"ahler, determined in an explicit way by some compact K\"ahler…

The bracket map was originally considered for locally compact abelian groups. In this work we extend the study of bracket maps to the noncommutative setting, providing characterizations of bases and frames for cyclic subspaces of the…

The coadjoint orbits of compact Lie groups each carry a canonical (positive definite) K\"ahler structure, famously used to realize the group's irreducible representations in holomorphic sections of appropriate line bundles (Borel-Weil…

In this thesis we study the topology and geometry of hyperk\"ahler quotients, as well as some related non-compact K\"ahler quotients, from the point of view of Hamiltonian group actions. The main technical tool we employ is Morse theory…

We review our present understanding of heterotic compactifications on non-Kahler complex manifolds with torsion. Most of these manifolds can be obtained by duality chasing a consistent F-theory compactification in the presence of fluxes. We…

The moment map $\mu$ is a central concept in the study of Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups $K$ on symplectic manifolds. In this short note, we propose a theory of moment maps coupled with an $\mathrm{Ad}_K$-invariant convex…

The Donaldson-Fujiki K\"ahler reduction of the space of compatible almost complex structures, leading to the interpretation of the scalar curvature of K\"ahler metrics as a moment map, can be lifted canonically to a hyperk\"ahler reduction.…
