We give sufficient conditions for the tautness of a transversely homogenous foliation defined on a compact manifold, by computing its base-like cohomology. As an application, we prove that if the foliation is non-unimodular then either the…
This is a sequel to [Ca01]=math.AG/0110051. We define the bimeromorphic {\it category} of geometric orbifolds. These interpolate between (compact K\" ahler) manifolds and such manifolds with logarithmic structure. These geometric orbifolds…
Let F be a foliation of codimension 2 on a compact manifold with at least one non-compact leaf. We show that then F must contain uncountably many non-compact leaves. We prove the same statement for oriented p-dimensional foliations of…
We classify simply connected, closed cohomogeneity one manifolds with singly generated or 4-periodic rational cohomology and positive Euler characteristic.
We study non-Kaehler manifolds with trivial logarithmic tangent bundle. We show that each such manifold arises as a fiber bundle with a compact complex parallelizable manifold as basis and a toric variety as fiber.
A space $X$ is said to be $C$-trivial if the total Chern class $c(\alpha)$ equals $1$ for every complex vector bundle $\alpha$ over $X$. In this note we give a complete homological classification of $C$-trivial closed smooth manifolds of…
We formalize the concepts of holomorphic affine and projective structures along the leaves of holomorphic foliations by curves on complex manifolds. We show that many foliations admit such structures, we provide local normal forms for them…
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a transversely orientable codimension one minimal foliation without vanishing cycles of a manifold $M$. We show that if the fundamental group of each leaf of $\mathcal{F}$ has polynomial growth of degree $k$ for some…
Let $f:M\to M$ be a dynamically coherent partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism whose center foliation has all its leaves compact. We prove that if the unstable bundle of $f$ is one-dimensional, then the volume of center leaves must be bounded…
We study holomorphic 2-forms on projective (or compact Kaehler) threefolds not of general type and prove that in almost all cases the 2-form is created by some standard process. This means roughly that every 2-form is induced by a…
We prove that smooth, projective, $K$-trivial, weakly ordinary varieties over a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$ are not geometrically uniruled. We also show a singular version of our theorem, which is sharp in multiple aspects. Our…
We show that hyperplane sections of strongly formal manifolds inherit strong formality. In particular, this property holds for generalized complete intersections defined by positive line bundles with trivial first de Rham cohomology group.…
The aim of the paper is to construct some Godbillon-Vey classes of a family of regular foliations, defined in the paper. These classes are cohomology classes on the manifold or on suitable open subsets. Some examples are also considered.
In this paper, we show that every invertible subsheaf of the cotangent bundle of a smooth globally $F$-regular threefold of characteristic $p>3$ has Iitaka dimension less than or equal to one.
A singular riemannian foliation on a complete riemannian manifold is said to be riemannian if each geodesic that is perpendicular at one point to a leaf remains perpendicular to every leaf it meets. The singular foliation is said to admit…
We classify the holomorphic parabolic geometries on compact complex manifolds of general type. We accomplish this by bounding the numerical dimension of any smooth projective variety in terms of geometric invariants of the flag variety…
This is a survey article, with essentially complete proofs, of a series of recent results concerning the geometry of the characteristic foliation on smooth divisors in compact hyperk\"ahler manifolds, starting with work by Hwang-Viehweg,…
We prove that any holomorphic vector bundle admitting a holomorphic connection, over a compact K\"ahler Calabi-Yau manifold, also admits a flat holomorphic connection. This addresses a particular case of a question asked by Atiyah and…
We prove the existence of a minimal (all leaves dense) foliation of codimension one, on every closed manifold of dimension at least 4 whose Euler characteristic is null, in every homotopy class of hyperplanes distributions, in every…
Winkelmann considered compact complex manifolds $X$ equipped with a reduced effective normal crossing divisor $D\, \subset\, X$ such that the logarithmic tangent bundle $TX(-\log D)$ is holomorphically trivial. He characterized them as…
