This article is devoted to examples of (orbifold) K\"ahler groups from the perspective of the so-called Shafarevich conjecture on holomorphic convexity. It aims at pointing out that every quasi-projective complex manifold with an…

In this note we establish the following result (announced in a previous work): if a linear group is the image of a representation of a K\"ahler group, then it has a finite index subgroup which is the image of a representation of the…

This article generalises to K\"ahler orbifolds general results on uniformisation of compact K\"ahler manifolds such as the Shafarevich conjecture for linear fundamental groups.

In the paper we prove a factorization theorem for representations of fundamental groups of compact K\"{a}hler manifolds ({\em K\"{a}hler groups}) into solvable matrix groups. We apply this result to prove that the universal covering of a…

We prove that the universal covering space of a complex projective manifold is holomorphically convex provided its fundamental group is linear.

In this paper, we prove the holomorphic convexity of the covering of a complex projective {normal} variety $X$, which corresponds to the intersection of kernels of reductive representations $\rho:\pi_1(X)\to {\rm GL}_{N}(\mathbb{C})$,…

We prove that the universal cover of a normal complex algebraic variety admitting a faithful complex representation of its fundamental group is an analytic Zariski open subset of a holomorphically convex complex space. This is a non-proper…

We study fundamental groups of toroidal compactifications of non compact ball quotients and show that the Shafarevich conjecture on holomorphic convexity for these complex projective manifolds is satisfied in dimension 2 provided the…

The paper contains a general construction which produces new examples of non simply-connected smooth projective surfaces. We analyze the resulting surfaces and their fundamental groups. Many of these fundamental groups are expected to be…

We formulate a new theorem giving several necessary and sufficient conditions in order that a surjection of the fundamental group $\pi_1(X)$ of a compact K\"ahler manifold onto the fundamental group $\Pi_g$ of a compact Riemann surface of…

We construct certain orbifold compactifications of the moduli stack of pointed stable curves over $\mathbb C$ and study their fundamental groups by means of their quantum representations. This enables to construct interesting K\"ahler…

Let X be a normal connected complex algebraic variety equipped with a semisimple complex representation of its fundamental group. Then, under a maximality assumption, we prove that the covering space of X associated to the kernel of the…

In this paper, we prove that a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ with semi-positive holomorphic sectional curvature admits a locally trivial fibration $\phi \colon X \to Y$, where the fiber $F$ is a rationally connected projective manifold and…

Given a complex quasi-projective normal variety $X$ and a linear representation $\varrho:\pi_1(X)\to {\rm GL}_{N}(K)$ with $K$ any field of positive characteristic, we mainly establish the following results: 1. the construction of the…

That short note, meant as an addendum to [CCE14], enhances the results contained in loc. cit. In particular it is proven here that a linear K{\"a}hler group is already the fundamental group of a smooth complex projective variety. This is…

We extend the Siu--Beauville theorem to a certain class of compact Kaehler--Weyl manifolds, proving that they fiber holomorphically over hyperbolic Riemannian surfaces whenever they satisfy the necessary topological hypotheses. As…

In an earlier paper we generalised the notion of the Tate-Shafarevich group of an elliptic K3 surface to the Tate-Shafarevich group of a polarised K3 surface. In the present note, we complement the result by proving that the…

Let $X$ be a compact hyperk\"ahler manifold with a Lagrangian fibration $\pi\colon X\to B$. A Shafarevich-Tate twist of $X$ is a holomorphic symplectic manifold with a Lagrangian fibration $\pi^\varphi\colon X^\varphi\to B$ which is…

Let X be a compact K\"ahler manifold such that the universal cover admits a compactification. We conjecture that the fundamental group is almost abelian and reduce it to a classical conjecture of Iitaka.

We prove a conjecture of Shafarevich about universal coverings of projective manifolds provided the fundamental group is residually finite.
