We introduce the class of almost symmetric submanifolds of Euclidean space, a close relative of symmetric submanifolds and (contact) sub-Riemannian symmetric spaces. More specifically, we prove that every full irreducible almost symmetric…

We give an explicit description (in component fields) of a holomorphic theory associated to a general supersymmetric background of $\mathcal N=1$ supergravity in ten dimensions. Conjecturally, this provides a sought-for holomorphic…

The classification problem for holonomy of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds is actual and open. In the present paper, holonomy algebras of Lorentz-K\"ahler manifolds are classified. A simple construction of a metric for each holonomy algebra is…

Closed (and simply-connected) manifolds whose dimensions are greater than 4 are classified via sophisticated algebraic and abstract theory such as surgery theory and homotopy theory. It is difficult to handle 3 or 4-dimensional closed…

We show that manifolds admitting special generic maps also admit nice generalized multisections. Special generic maps are natural generalized versions of Morse functions with exactly two singular points on closed manifolds, characterizing…

This is a chapter for a planned collective volume entitled "New spaces in mathematics and physics" (M. Anel, G. Catren Eds.). The first part contains a short formal exposition of supergeometry as it is understood by mathematicians. The…

In a recent joint paper with S. Sahi and V. Venkateswaran (2025), families of actions of the double affine Hecke algebra on spaces of quasi-polynomials were introduced. These so-called quasi-polynomial representations led to the…

In this note, we reformulate Donaldson's construction as a compactness result. Approximately holomorphic sections accumulate to "limit holomorphic sections" and uniform transversality properties of the approximately holomorphic sections…

The problem of classifying, upto isometry (or similarity), the orientable spherical, Euclidean and hyperbolic 3-manifolds that arise by identifying the faces of a Platonic solid is formulated in the language of Coxeter groups. In the…

A notion of dual curve for pseudoholomorphic curves in 4--manifolds turns out to be possible only if the notion of almost complex structure structure is slightly generalized. The resulting structure is as easy (perhaps easier) to work with,…

Almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian and Norden metrics and more specially the corresponding quaternionic Kaehler manifolds are considered. Some necessary and sufficient conditions the investigated manifolds be isotropic…

This monograph presents a detailed analysis of hypercomplex numbers in 2, 3 and 4 dimensions, then presents the properties of hypercomplex numbers in 5 and 6 dimensions. It continues with a detailed analysis of hypercomplex numbers in n…

We review the recent development of Hodge theory for almost complex manifolds. This includes the determination of whether the Hodge numbers defined by $\bar\partial$-Laplacian are almost complex, almost K\"ahler, or birational invariants in…

For a compact almost complex 4-manifold $(M,J)$, we study the subgroups $H^{\pm}_J$ of $H^2(M, \mathbb{R})$ consisting of cohomology classes representable by $J$-invariant, respectively, $J$-anti-invariant 2-forms. If $b^+ =1$, we show that…

In this thesis, we study cohomological properties of non-K\"ahler manifolds. In particular, we are concerned in investigating the cohomology of compact (almost-)complex manifolds, and of manifolds endowed with special structures, e.g.,…

Let $(M,J)$ be a $n$-dimensional complex manifold: a $p$-K\"ahler structure (resp. $p$-symplectic structure) on $M$ is a real, closed $(p,p)$-transverse form $\Omega$ (resp. real, closed $2p$-form whose $(p,p)$-component is transverse). We…

Theories in 5 dimensions with minimal supersymmetry are studied for domain-wall solutions and in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence. The scalar manifold is a product of a very special real manifold and a quaternionic-Kaehler…

We study the Banach algebras of bounded holomorphic functions on the unit disk whose boundary values, having, in a sense, the weakest possible discontinuities, belong to the algebra of semi-almost periodic functions on the unit circle. The…

Let E be a generic real submanifold of an almost complex manifold. The geometry of Bishop discs attached to E is studied in terms of the Levi form of E.

The notion of symmetry in polynomial rings with several indeterminates is generalized to polynomial rings over finite fields. Families of extensions of the projective line over a finite field of constants possessing this property are…
