The main purpose of this paper is to show that ideas of deformation theory can be applied to "infinite dimensional geometry". We develop the deformation theory of Brody curves. Brody curve is a kind of holomorphic map from the complex plane…

We investigate when the tangent bundle of a projective manifold has a non-trivial first order (or positive-dimensional) deformation. This leads to a new conjectural characterization of the complex projective space.

Boundary points on the moduli space of pointed curves corresponding to collisions of marked points have modular interpretations as degenerate curves. In this paper, we study degenerations of orbifold projective curves corresponding to…

We establish a type of the Picard's theorem for entire curves in $P^n(\mathbb C)$ whose spherical derivative vanishes on the inverse images of hypersurface targets. Then, as a corollary, we prove that there is an union $D$ of finite number…

We show the existence of metrically dense entire curves in rationally connected complex projective manifolds confirming for this case a conjecture according to which such entire curves on projective manifolds exist if and only if these are…

A primitive multiple curve is a Cohen-Macaulay irreducible projective curve Y that can be locally embedded in a smooth surface, and such that the associated reduced curve Y_red is smooth. The subject of this paper is the study of…

In this paper we study the degeneration of convex real projective structures on bordered surfaces.

In the article, we exhibit a series of new examples of rigid plane curves, that is, curves, whose collection of singularities determines them almost uniquely up to a projective transformation of the plane.

We consider the question: ``How bad can the deformation space of an object be?'' The answer seems to be: ``Unless there is some a priori reason otherwise, the deformation space may be as bad as possible.'' We show this for a number of…

Classification theory and the study of projective varieties which are covered by rational curves of minimal degrees naturally leads to the study of families of singular rational curves. Since families of arbitrarily singular curves are hard…

We discuss an example related to the method of Brody. The example is an open subset of a compact complex torus which is covered by entire curves, but not by Brody curves.

Let $C$ be an irreducible smooth complex projective curve of genus $g$, with $g_C \geqslant 2$. Let $E$ be a vector bundle on $C$ of rank $r$, with $r\geqslant 2$. Let $\mc Q:=\mc Q(E,\,d)$ be the Quot Scheme parameterizing torsion…

The main goal of this work is to prove that every entire curve in a generic hypersurface of degree greater than or equal to 593 in the complex projective space of dimension 4 is algebraically degenerated i.e contained in a proper…

In 1981 J.Noguchi proved that in a logarithmic algebraic manifold, having logarithmic irregularity strictly bigger than its dimension, any entire curve is algebraically degenerate. In the present paper we are interested in the case of…

A real projective orbifold has a radial end if a neighborhood of the end is foliated by projective geodesics that develop into geodesics ending at a common point. It has a totally geodesic end if the end can be completed to have the totally…

In this article we prove that every entire curve in the complement of a generic hypersurface of degree $d\geq 586$ in $\mathbb{P}_{\mathbb{C}}^{3}$ is algebraically degenerate i.e there exists a proper subvariety which contains the entire…

We study global deformations of certain projective bundles over projective spaces. We show that any projective global deformation of a projective bundle over $\bP^1$ carries the structure of a projective bundle over some projective space.…

Given a smooth projective complex curve inside a smooth projective surface, one can ask how its Hodge structure varies when the curve moves inside the surface. In this paper we develop a general theory to study the infinitesimal version of…

Any smooth projective curve embeds into $\mathbb{P}^3$. More generally, any curve embeds into a rationally connected variety of dimension at least three. We prove conversely that if every curve embeds in a threefold $X$, then $X$ is…

We describe a Hodge theoretic approach to the question: In what ways can a smooth projective variety degenerate?
