We propose an approach to the existence problem for locally conformally K\"ahler metrics on compact complex manifolds by introducing and studying a functional that is different according to whether the complex dimension of the manifold is…
The paper generalizes some of the well-known results for K3 surfaces to higher-dimensional irreducible symplectic (or, equivalently, compact irreducible hyperkaehler) manifolds. In particular, we discuss the projectivity of such manifolds…
We consider $F: M \to N$ a minimal oriented compact real 2n-submanifold M, immersed into a Kaehler-Einstein manifold N of complex dimension 2n, and scalar curvature R. We assume that $n \geq 2$ and F has equal Kaehler angles. Our main…
In the present work, we investigate existence of deformations and algebraic approximability for certain uniruled K\"ahler threefolds. In the first part, we establish existence of infinitesimal deformations for all conic bundles with…
We prove two results relating 3-manifold groups to fundamental groups occurring in complex geometry. Let N be a compact, connected, orientable 3-manifold. If N has non-empty, toroidal boundary, and \pi_1(N) is a Kaehler group, then N is the…
The notion of poor manifolds was introduced by Bandman and Zarhin, who asked for their classification. We study poor compact K\"ahler manifolds, i.e. those containing no rational curves and no codimension-one analytic subvarieties. We…
Let X be a compact Kaehler threefold such that the base of the MRC-fibration has dimension two. We prove that X is bimeromorphic to a Mori fibre space. Together with our earlier result arXiv:1304.4013 this completes the MMP for compact…
We show the existence of a compact K\"ahler manifold which does not fit in a proper flat family over an irreducible base with one projective (possibly singular) fiber. We also give a topological version of this statement. This strengthens…
The Kaehler manifolds of quasi-constant holomorphic sectional curvatures are introduced as Kaehler manifolds with complex distribution of codimension two, whose holomorphic sectional curvature only depends on the corresponding point and the…
A double cover $Y$ of $\mathbb{P}^1 \times \mathbb{P}^2$ ramified over a general $(2,2)$-divisor will have the structure of a geometrically standard conic bundle ramified over a smooth plane quartic $\Delta \subset \mathbb{P}^2$ via the…
It is well known that a three dimensional (closed, connected and compact) manifold is obtained by identifying boundary faces from a polyhedron P. The study of (\partial P)/~, the boundary \partial P with the polygonal faces identified in…
We investigate the global topology of 3-dimensional Hessian manifolds. We prove that any compact, orientable 3-dimensional Hessian manifold is either a Hantzsche-Wendt manifold or admits the structure of a K\"ahler mapping torus. We analyze…
We study compact K\"ahler threefolds X with infinite fundamental group whose universal cover can be compactified. Combining techniques from $L^2$ -theory, Campana's geometric orbifolds and the minimal model program we show that this…
It has been shown by Claire Voisin in 2003 that one cannot always deform a compact K\"ahler manifold into a projective algebraic manifold, thereby answering negatively a question raised by Kodaira. In this article, we prove that under an…
We prove that every Kaehler solvmanifold has a finite covering whose holomorphic reduction is a principal bundle. An example is given that illustrates the necessity, in general, of passing to a proper covering. We also answer a stronger…
We construct a family of 1-convex threefolds, with exceptional curve C of type (0,-2), which are not embeddable in C^m \times CP_n. In order to show that they are not Kaehler we exhibit a real 3-dimensional chain A whose boundary is the…
The metrics of S. Y. Cheng and S.-T. Yau are considered on a strictly pseudoconvex domains in a complex manifold. Such a manifold carries a complete K\"{a}hler-Einstein metric if and only if its canonical bundle is positive. We consider the…
We propose a new approach to the Mirror Symmetry Conjecture in a form suitable to possibly non-K\"ahler compact complex manifolds whose canonical bundle is trivial. We apply our methods by proving that the Iwasawa manifold $X$, a well-known…
Two Kaehler metrics on one complex manifold are said to be c-projectively equivalent if their J-planar curves, i.e., curves defined by the property that their acceleration is complex proportional to their velocity, coincide. The degree of…
We prove that a smooth complex projective threefold with a K\"ahler metric of negative holomorphic sectional curvature has ample canonical line bundle. In dimensions greater than three, we prove that, under equal assumptions, the nef…
