We give conditions for $f$-positivity of relative complete intersections in projective bundles. We also derive an instability result for the fibres.

Pre-geodesics of an affine connection are the curves that are geodesics after a reparametrization (the analogous concept in K\"ahler geometry is known as J-planar curves). Similarly, dual-geodesics on a Riemannian manifold are curves along…

This note proves the geodesic completeness of any compact manifold endowed with a linear connection such that the closure of its holonomy group is compact.

We show uniqueness of Ricci flows starting at a surface of uniformly negative curvature, with the assumption that the flows become complete instantaneously. Together with the more general existence result proved in [10], this settles the…

The first part of this note contains a review of basic properties of the variety of lines contained in an embedded projective variety and passing through a general point. In particular we provide a detailed proof that for varieties defined…

The aim of the present paper is to study the properties of Riemannian manifolds equipped with a projective semi-symmetric connection.

It is shown that moduli spaces of complete families of compact complex hypersurfaces in complex manifolds often come equipped canonically with projective structures satisfying some natural integrability conditions.

In this article, we first prove a general result in topology which states that every quasi-component of a quasi-spectral space is connected. \\ As an application, the structure of the connected components of every quasi-compact…

This article is an overview of the results obtained in recent years on symplectic connections. We present what is known about preferred connections (critical points of a variational principle). The class of Ricci-type connections (for which…

Here we treat the problem: given a torsion-free connection do its geodesics, as unparametrised curves, coincide with the geodesics of an Einstein metric? We find projective invariants such that the vanishing of these is necessary for the…

In this article, the projectivity of finitely generated flat modules of a commutative ring are studied from a topological point of view. Then various interesting results are obtained. For instance, it is shown that if a ring has either a…

We study the relations between the projective and the almost conformally symplectic structures on a smooth even dimensional manifold. We describe these relations by a single almost conformally symplectic connection with totally trace--free…

Real projective structures on $n$-orbifolds are useful in understanding the space of representations of discrete groups into $\mathrm{SL}(n+1, \mathbb{R})$ or $\mathrm{PGL}(n+1, \mathbb{R})$. A recent work shows that many hyperbolic…

By recasting metrical geometry in a purely algebraic setting, both Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries can be studied over a general field with an arbitrary quadratic form. Both an affine and a projective version of this new theory are…

We prove that there is a correspondence between projective structures defined by torsion-free connections with skew-symmetric Ricci tensor and Veronese webs on a plane. The correspondence is used to characterise the projective structures in…

An oriented link projection is the image of a generic immersion of oriented circles into the 2-sphere. The circle arrangement of a link projection is a disjoint union of unoriented circles on the 2-sphere obtained by orientation-incoherent…

We define and study jets of flat partial connections in the setting of smooth foliations and flat partial connections on locally free sheaves. In the case of codimension one foliations, we apply this definition to characterize transversely…

Starting from a cubic form, we give a general construction of a quasi-complete homogeneous manifold endowed with a natural contact structure. We show that it can be compactified into a projective contact manifold if and only if the cubic…

In this paper, we study bijections on strictly convex sets of $\mathbf R \mathbf P^n$ for $n \geq 2$ and closed convex projective surfaces equipped with the Hilbert metric that map complete geodesics to complete geodesics as sets.…

The purpose of this article is to determine explicitly the complete surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector, both in the complex projective plane and the complex hyperbolic plane. The main results are as follows: When the curvature of…
