Given a compact connected Riemann surface $X$ equipped with an antiholomorphic involution $\tau$, we consider the projective structures on $X$ satisfying a compatibility condition with respect to $\tau$. For a projective structure $P$ on…

For a smooth projective unitary representation of a locally convex Lie group G, the projective space of smooth vectors is a locally convex Kaehler manifold. We show that the action of G on this space is weakly Hamiltonian, and lifts to a…

The object of this article is to compute the holonomy group of the normal connection of complex parallel submanifolds of the complex projective space. We also give a new proof of the classification of complex parallel submanifolds by using…

We characterize the representations of the fundamental group of a closed surface to $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb C)$ that arise as the holonomy of a branched complex projective structure with fixed branch divisor. In particular, we compute the…

The purpose of this note is to show that a connection with closed skewsymmetric torsion and reducible holonomy admits a locally defined Riemannian submersion together with a projected geometry on the base. We reframe known submersion…

We study a class of continuous deformations of branched complex projective structures on closed surfaces of genus $g\geq 2$, which preserve the holonomy representation of the structure and the order of the branch points. In the case of…

Projective structures on compact real manifolds are classical objects in real differential geometry. Complex manifolds with a holomorphic projective structure on the other hand form a special class as soon as the dimension is greater than…

There is a rich theory of so-called (strict) nearly Kaehler manifolds, almost-Hermitian manifolds generalising the famous almost complex structure on the 6-sphere induced by octonionic multiplication. Nearly Kaehler 6-manifolds play a…

This article investigates the complex symplectic geometry of the deformation space of complex projective structures on a closed oriented surface of genus at least 2. The cotangent symplectic structure given by the Schwarzian parametrization…

If $X$ is a topological space then there is a natural homomorphism $\pi_1(X)\rightarrow K_1(X)$ from a fundamental group to a $K_1$-homology group. Covering projections depend of fundamental group. So $K_1$-homology groups are interrelated…

We introduce and study a new class of representations of surface groups into Lie groups of Hermitian type, called weakly maximal representations. They are defined in terms of invariants in bounded cohomology and extend considerably the…

We consider holomorphic foliations by curves on compact complex manifolds, for which we investigate the existence of projective structures along the leaves varying holomorphically (foliated projective structures), that satisfy particular…
