In this work, we investigate compact K\"ahler manifolds with non-negative or quasi-positive mixed curvature coming from a linear combination of the Ricci and holomorphic sectional curvature, which covers various notions of curvature…

An oriented compact closed manifold is called inflexible if the set of mapping degrees ranging over all continuous self-maps is finite. Inflexible manifolds have become of importance in the theory of functorial semi-norms on homology.…

Maximally symmetric manifolds with holonomy in the unitary quaternionic group Sp(d/4) emerge from the non-Abelian Kaluza-Klein reduction of conformally flat spaces. Thus, all special manifolds with constant properly `holonomy-related'…

We prove that closed manifolds admitting a generic metric whose sectional curvature is locally quasi-constant are graphs of space forms. In the more general setting of QC spaces where sets of isotropic points are arbitrary, under suitable…

We prove that compact complex manifolds with admitting metrics with negative Chern curvature operator either admit a $dd^c$-exact positive (1,1) current, or are K\"ahler with ample canonical bundle. In the case of complex surfaces we obtain…

We construct a simply connected compact manifold which has complex and symplectic structures but does not admit K\"ahler metrics, in the lowest possible dimension where this can happen, that is, dimension 6. Such a manifold is automatically…

The existence of a nowhere zero real vector field implies a well-known restriction on a compact manifold. But all manifolds admit nowhere zero complex vector fields. The relation between these observations is clarified.

We introduce the notion of tame $\rho$-quaternionic manifold that permits the construction of a finite family of $\rho$-connections, significant for the geometry involved. This provides, for example, the following: (1) a new simple global…

Let $(M,g)$ be a noncompact complete Bach-flat manifold with positive Yamabe constant. We prove that $(M,g)$ is flat if $(M, g)$ has zero scalar curvature and sufficiently small $L_{2}$ bound of curvature tensor. When $(M, g)$ has…

We study complex non-K\"ahler manifolds with Hermitian metrics being locally conformal to metrics with special cohomological properties. In particular, we provide examples where the existence of locally conformal holomorphic-tamed…

We place the representation variety in the broader context of abelian and nonabelian cohomology. We outline the equivalent constructions of the moduli spaces of flat bundles, of smooth integrable connections, and of holomorphic integrable…

We prove that compact non-flat manifolds with constant sectional curvature admit no conformal product structure. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the methods extend naturally to irreducible, compact locally symmetric spaces of non-positive…

We give a simple interpretation of the adapted complex structure of Lempert-Szoke and Guillemin-Stenzel: it is given by a polar decomposition of the complexified manifold. We then give a twistorial construction of an SO(3)-invariant…

We study curvature properties of four-dimensional almost Hermitian manifolds with vanishing Bochner curvature tensor as defined by Tricerri and Vanhecke. We give local structure theorems for such Kaehler manifolds, and find out several…

In this note, we analyze the question of when will a complex nilmanifold have K\"ahler-like Strominger (also known as Bismut), Chern, or Riemannian connection, in the sense that the curvature of the connection obeys all the symmetries of…

Complex contact manifolds arise naturally in differential geometry, algebraic geometry and exterior differential systems. Their classification would answer an important question about holonomy groups. The geometry of such manifold $X$ is…

Geodesically complete affine manifolds are quotients of the Euclidean space through a properly discontinuous action of a subgroup of affine Euclidean transformations. An equivalent definition is that the tangent bundle of such a manifold…

Let X --> B be a holomorphic submersion between compact Kahler manifolds of any dimension, whose fibres and base have no non-zero holomorphic vector fields and whose fibres all admit constant scalar curvature Kahler metrics. This article…

A locally conformally K\"ahler (lcK) manifold is a complex manifold $(M,J)$ together with a Hermitian metric $g$ which is conformal to a K\"ahler metric in the neighbourhood of each point. In this paper we obtain three classification…

For k at least 2, we exhibit complete k-curvature homogeneous neutral signature pseudo-Riemannian manifolds which are not locally affine homogeneous (and hence not locally homogeneous). The curvature tensor of these manifolds is modeled on…
