Compact Vaisman manifolds with vanishing first Chern class split into three categories, depending on the sign of the Bott-Chern class. We show that Vaisman manifolds with non-positive Bott-Chern class admit canonical metrics, are…

An odd Seiberg-Witten invariant imposes bounds on the signature of a closed, almost complex 4-manifold with vanishing first Chern class. This applies in particular to symplectic 4-manifolds of Kodaira dimension zero.

We consider Lorentzian manifolds with parallel light-like vector field V. Being parallel and light-like, the orthogonal complement of V induces a codimension one foliation. Assuming compactness of the leaves and non-negative Ricci curvature…

An LCK (locally conformally Kahler) manifold is a complex manifold admitting a Hermitian form $\omega$ which satisfies $d\omega =\omega\wedge \theta$, where $\theta$ is a closed 1-form, called the Lee form. An LCK manifold is called Vaisman…

We consider exact fillings with vanishing first Chern class of asymptotically dynamically convex (ADC) manifolds. We construct two structure maps on the positive symplectic cohomology and prove that they are independent of the filling for…

We construct a type of transverse deformations of a Vaisman manifold, which preserves the canonical foliation. For this construction we only need a basic 1-form with certain properties. We show that such basic 1-forms exist in abundance.

We develop computational techniques which allow us to calculate the Kodaira dimension as well as the dimension of spaces of Dolbeault harmonic forms for left-invariant almost complex structures on the generalised Kodaira-Thurston manifolds.

We prove a Bochner type vanishing theorem for compact complex manifolds $Y$ in Fujiki class $\mathcal C$, with vanishing first Chern class, that admit a cohomology class $[\alpha] \in H^{1,1}(Y,\mathbb R)$ which is numerically effective…

Let M be a compact locally conformal hyperkaehler manifold. We prove a version of Kodaira-Nakano vanishing theorem for M. This is used to show that M admits no holomorphic differential forms, and the cohomology of the structure sheaf…

In this paper we investigate the Kodaira dimension of almost complex $4$-manifolds with torsion first Chern class. First, we prove that, if the almost complex structure is also tamed, the only possible values for the Kodaira dimension are…

In the first part of this paper we study geometric formality for generalized flag manifolds, including full flag manifolds of exceptional Lie groups. In the second part we deal with the problem of the classification of invariant almost…

We give an explicit description of the Bott-Chern cohomology groups of a compact Vaisman manifold in terms of the basic cohomology. We infer that the Bott-Chern numbers and the Dolbeault numbers of a Vaisman manifold determine each other.…

We characterize unimodular solvable Lie algebras with Vaisman structures in terms of K\"ahler flat Lie algebras equipped with a suitable derivation. Using this characterization we obtain algebraic restrictions for the existence of Vaisman…

A compact complex Hermitian manifold $(M, I, w)$ is called Vaisman if $dw=w\wedge \theta$ and the 1-form $\theta$, called the Lee form, is parallel with respect to the Levi-Civita connection. The volume form of $M$ is invariant with respect…
