The goal of this work is to pursue the study of pseudo-effective line bundles and vector bundles. Our first result is a generalization of the Hard Lefschetz theorem for cohomology with values in a pseudo-effective line bundle. The Lefschetz…

Let $B$ be a K\"ahler-Einstein Fano manifold, and $L \to B$ be a suitable root of the canonical bundle. We give a construction of complete Calabi-Yau metrics and gradient shrinking, steady, and expanding K\"ahler-Ricci solitons on the total…

In this short note, we will prove a volume stability theorem which says that if an n-dimensional toric manifold $M$ admits a $\mathbb{T}^n$ invariant K\"ahler metric $\omega$ with Ricci curvature no less than 1 and its volume is close to…

Given an integer homology class of a finitely presentable group, the systolic volume quantifies how tight could be a geometric realization of this class. In this paper, we study various aspects of this numerical invariant showing that it is…

We formulate and establish a generalization of Koll\'ar's injectivity theorem for adjoint bundles twisted by suitable multiplier ideal sheaves. As applications, we generalize Koll\'ar's torsion-freeness, Koll\'ar's vanishing theorem, and a…

In this note we show that if a projective manifold admits a K\"ahler metric with negative holomorphic sectional curvature then the canonical bundle of the manifold is ample. This confirms a conjecture of the second author.

Let $ E \xrightarrow[\text{}]{\pi} B$ be an oriented circle bundle over an oriented closed surface $B$. A quasisection is a smooth surface ${Q}$ (either closed or bordered) mapped by a generic smooth mapping $q$ to $E$ such that $\pi\circ…

For divisors over smooth projective varieties, we show that the volume can be characterized by the duality between pseudo-effective cone of divisors and movable cone of curves. Inspired by this result, we give and study a natural…

We generalize a result of Fujita, on the decomposition of Hodge bundles over curves, to the case of a higher dimensional base.

Let L be a holomorphic line bundle with a positively curved singular Hermitian metric over a complex manifold X. One can define naturally the sequence of Fubini-Study currents associated to the space of square integrable holomorphic…

Motivated by a recent groundbreaking work of Ontaneda, we describe a sizable class of closed manifolds such that the product of each manifold in the class with the real line admits a complete metric of bounded negative sectional curvature…

This paper is devoted to the study of the asymptotics of Monge-Amp\`ere volumes of direct images associated with high tensor powers of an ample line bundle. We study the leading term of this asymptotics and provide a classification of…

The goal of this paper is to show that there are strong relations between certain Monge-Amp\`ere integrals appearing in holomorphic Morse inequalities, and asymptotic cohomology estimates for tensor powers of holomorphic line bundles.…

This is a survey article, presenting few of the mathematical achievements of J.-P. Demailly. We discuss a few aspects of his approach for Fujita conjecture, and results around the K\"ahler cone of a compact K\"ahler manifold. The article…

Given a simply connected manifold $M$, we completely determine which rational monomial Pontryagin numbers are attained by fiber homotopy trivial $M$-bundles over the $k$-sphere, provided that $k$ is small compared to the dimension of $M$.…

We define non-pluripolar products of closed positive currents on a compact Kaehler manifold. We show that a positive non-pluripolar measure can be written in a unique way as the top degree self-intersection (in the non-pluripolar sense) of…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective toric variety over $Spec(Z)$. Let $\bar{\mathcal{O}(D)}$ be an equivariant hermitian line bundle on $X$, equipped with a positive metric and invariant under the action of the compact torus of $X(C)$, we…

We elaborate on how two definitions of the volume of a big cohomology class are consistent. The first definition involves taking the absolutely continuous part of a closed positive current, and the second involves the non-pluripolar…

Let $E$ be a holomorphic vector bundle over a compact K\"{a}hler manifold $(X,\omega)$ with negative sectional curvature $sec\leq -K<0$, $\Delta_{E}$ be the Chern connection on $E$. In this article we show that if…

New constructions in group homology allow us to manufacture high-dimensional manifolds with controlled simplicial volume. We prove that for every dimension bigger than 3 the set of simplicial volumes of orientable closed connected manifolds…
