We will prove that given a genus-2 fibration $f: X \rightarrow C$ on a smooth projective surface $X$ such that $b_1(X)=b_1(C)+2$, the fundamental group of $X$ is almost isomorphic to $\pi_1(C) \times \pi_1(E)$, where $E$ is an elliptic…

First we confirm a conjecture asserting that any compact K\"ahler manifold $N$ with $\Ric^\perp>0$ must be simply-connected by applying a new viscosity consideration to Whitney's comass of $(p, 0)$-forms. Secondly we prove the projectivity…

A recent celebrated theorem of Diverio-Trapani and Wu-Yau states that a compact K\"ahler manifold admitting a K\"ahler metric of quasi-negative holomorphic sectional curvature has an ample canonical line bundle, confirming a conjecture of…

In this article, we prove that the fundamental group $\pi_1(M)$ of a complete open manifold $M$ with nonnegative Ricci curvature is finitely generated, under the condition that the Riemannian universal cover $\tilde M$ satisfies an "almost…

We construct classes of K\"ahler groups that do not have finite classifying spaces and are not commensurable to subdirect products of surface groups. Each of these groups is the fundamental group of the generic fibre of a holomorphic map…

Let $G$, $G_1$ and $G_2$ be quasi-finite and flat group schemes over a complete discrete valuation ring $R$, $\varphi_1:G\to G_1$ any morphism of $R$-group schemes and $\varphi_2:G\to G_2$ a model map. We construct the pushout $P$ of $G_1$…

The aim of these notes is to acquaint the reader with important objects in complex algebraic geometry: K3 surfaces and their higher-dimensional analogs, hyperk\"ahler manifolds. These manifolds are interesting from several points of view:…

Generalizing the well-known Shafarevich hyperbolicity conjecture, it has been conjectured by Viehweg that a quasi-projective manifold that admits a generically finite morphism to the moduli stack of canonically polarized varieties is…

We prove a topological result concerning the kernel of a morphism d : E --> F of holomorphic vector bundles over a complex analytic space. As a consequence, we show that the projectivization P(ker d) is a quasifibration up to some…

A compact complex manifold $X$ is called elliptically connected if any pair of points in $X$ can be connected by a chain of elliptic or rational curves. We prove that the fundamental group of an elliptically connected compact complex…

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus $g \geq 2$ and $G$ a connected reductive affine algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. We prove the semiprojectivity of the moduli spaces of semistable $G$-Higgs bundles and $G$-bundles…

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…

On an almost complex manifold, a quasi-K\"{a}hler metric, with canonical connection in the c-projective class of a given minimal complex connection, is equivalent to a non-degenerate solution of the c-projectively invariant metrizability…

Using the Minimal Model Program, any degeneration of K-trivial varieties can be arranged to be in a Kulikov type form, i.e. with trivial relative canonical divisor and mild singularities. In the hyper-K\"ahler setting, we can then deduce a…

For complete complex connections on almost complex manifolds we introduce a natural definition of compactification. This is based on almost c--projective geometry, which is the almost complex analogue of projective differential geometry.…

Let $\pi\cln X\to \Delta^m$ be a proper smooth K\"ahler morphism from a complex manifold $X$ to the unit polydisc $\Delta^m$. Suppose the fibers over the complement of a proper analytic subset are biholomorphic to a fixed projective…

In this work we study smooth complex quasi-projective surfaces whose fundamental group is a free product of cyclic groups. In particular, we prove the existence of an admissible map from the quasi-projective surface to a smooth complex…

We show that any dimension $6$ nearly K\"ahler (or nearly para-K\"ahler) geometry arises as a projective manifold equipped with a $\textrm{G}_2^{(*)}$ holonomy reduction. In the converse direction we show that if a projective manifold is…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold. The set $\cha(X)$ of one-dimensional complex valued characters of the fundamental group of $X$ forms an algebraic group. Consider the subset of $\cha(X)$ consisting of those characters for which the…

In this article we study compact K\"ahler manifolds $X$ admitting non-singular holomorphic vector fields with the aim of extending to this setting the classical birational classification of projective varieties with tangent vector fields.…
