Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus at least two. The main theorem of arxiv:1010.1488 says that for any positive integer $n \leq 2({\rm genus}(X)-1)$, the symmetric product $S^n(X)$ does not admit any K\"ahler metric…

We establish the existence of complete K\"ahler metrics of semi-positive holomorphic sectional curvature with many zeroes in an interesting and natural geometric setting. Specifically, we use Calabi's Ansatz in the form due to Koiso-Sakane…

In this note we prove that a four-dimensional compact oriented half-confor\-mally flat Riemannian manifold $M^4$ is topologically $\mathbb{S}^{4}$ or $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^{2},$ provided that the sectional curvatures all lie in the interval…

In this note we provide a proof of the following: Any compact KRS with positive bisectional curvature is biholomorphic to the complex projective space. As a corollary, we obtain an alternative proof of the Frankel conjecture by using the…

We prove that a product complex manifold cannot admit a complete K\"ahler metric with sectional curvature $K<c<0$ and Ricci curvature $Ric > d$, where $c$ and $d$ are constants. In particular, a product domain in $\C$ cannot cover a compact…

In this article we study properly discontinuous actions on Hilbert manifolds giving new examples of complete Hilbert manifolds with nonnegative, respectively nonpositive, sectional curvature with infinite fundamental group. We also get…

Let $M^{2n}$ be a compact Riemannian manifold of non-positive (resp. negative) sectional curvature. We call $(M,J,\theta)$ a $d$(bounded) locally conformally K\"{a}hler manifold if the lifted Lee form $\tilde{\theta}$ on the universal…

Applying a well known result for attracting fixed points of biholomorphisms \cite{RR, V}, we observe that one immediately obtains the following result: if $(M^n,g)$ is a complete non-compact gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton which is either…

For a compact K\"{a}hler-Einstein manifold $M$ of dimension $n\ge 2$, we explicitly write the expression $-c_1^n(M)+\frac{2(n+1)}{n}c_2(M)c_1^{n-2}(M)$ in the form of certain integral on the holomorphic sectional curvature and its average…

We study geometry, topology and deformation spaces of noncompact complex hyperbolic manifolds (geometrically finite, with variable negative curvature), whose properties make them surprisingly different from real hyperbolic manifolds with…

Let M be an almost Hermitian manifold of dimension greater or equal to 6. The following theorems are proved: Theorem 1. If M is of pointwise constant {\theta}-holomorphic sectional curvature for a number {\theta} in (0,{\pi}/2) then M is of…

It is a basic tenet in complex geometry that {\it negative} curvature corresponds, in a suitable sense, to the absence of rational curves on, say, a complex projective manifold, while {\it positive} curvature corresponds to the abundance of…

Positive Quaternion Kaehler Manifolds are Riemannian manifolds with holonomy contained in Sp(n)Sp(1) and with positive scalar curvature. Conjecturally, they are symmetric spaces. We prove this conjecture in dimension 20 under additional…

A long-standing conjecture in non-K\"ahler geometry states that if the Chern (or Levi-Civita) holomorphic sectional curvature of a compact Hermitian manifold is a constant $c$, then the metric must be K\"ahler when $c\neq 0$ and must be…

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g$, with $g \geq 2$, and let ${\mathcal O}_X$ denote the sheaf of holomorphic functions on $X$. Fix positive integers $r$ and $d$ and let ${\mathcal Q}(r,d)$ be the Quot scheme…

An old open question in non-K\"ahler geometry predicts that any compact Hermitian manifold with constant holomorphic sectional curvature must be K\"ahler or Chern flat. The conjecture is known to be true in dimension $2$ due to the work by…

Let $V$ be a compact and irreducible complex space of complex dimension $v$ whose regular part is endowed with a complete Hermitian metric $h$. Let $\pi:M\rightarrow V$ be a resolution of $V$. Under suitable assumptions on $h$ we prove that…

We classify the complete metrics of nonnegative sectional curvature on M^2xR^2, where M^2 is any compact 2-manifold.

The classical Hadamard three circle theorem is generalized to complete K\"ahler manifolds. More precisely, we show that the nonnegativity of the holomorphic sectional curvature is a necessary and sufficient condition for the three circle…
