A general Schwarz Lemma for almost-Hermitian manifolds

open access: yes, 2007
We prove a version of Yau's Schwarz Lemma for general almost-complex manifolds equipped with Hermitian metrics. This requires an extension to this setting of the Laplacian comparison theorem.

Almost Complex Structures on Homotopy Complex Projective Spaces [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
We show that all homotopy $\mathbb{C}P^n$s, smooth closed manifolds with the oriented homotopy type of $\mathbb{C}P^n$, admit almost complex structures for $3 \leq n \leq 6$, and classify these structures by their Chern classes. Our methods provide a new proof of a result of Libgober and Wood on the classification of almost complex structures on ...

Constructing symplectic forms on 4-manifolds which vanish on circles

open access: yes, 2004
Given a smooth, closed, oriented 4-manifold X and alpha in H_2(X,Z) such that alpha.alpha > 0, a closed 2-form w is constructed, Poincare dual to alpha, which is symplectic on the complement of a finite set of unknotted circles.

The Square of Nijenhuis Tensor and Its Vanishing Results [PDF]

open access: yesAsian-European Journal of Mathematics, Asian-European Journal of Mathematics, volume 15, no 8(2022), 2020

On the Kodaira-Spencer's problem on almost Hermitian $4$-manifolds [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
In 1954, Hirzebruch reported a problem posed by Kodaira and Spencer: on compact almost complex manifolds, is the dimension $h^{p,q}_{\bar \partial}$ of the kernel of the Dolbeault Laplacian independent of the choice of almost Hermitian metric? In this paper, we review recent progresses on the original problem and we introduce a similar one: on compact ...

Existence of foliations on 4-manifolds [PDF]

open access: yesAlgebr. Geom. Topol. 3 (2003) 1225-1256, 2003
We present existence results for certain singular 2-dimensional foliations on 4-manifolds. The singularities can be chosen to be simple, e.g. the same as those that appear in Lefschetz pencils. There seems to be a wealth of such creatures on most 4-manifolds. In certain cases, one can prescribe surfaces to be transverse or be leaves of these foliations.

On embeddings of almost complex manifolds in almost complex Euclidean spaces [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geometry and Physics 101 (2016), 19-26, 2014
We prove that any compact almost complex manifold $(M, J)$ of real dimension $2m$ admits a pseudo-holomorphic embedding in a Euclidean space of dimension $4m + 2$, endowed with a suitable non-standard almost complex structure. Moreover, we give a necessary and sufficient condition, expressed in terms of the Segre class of $(M, J)$, for the existence of

C-projective geometry [PDF]

open access: yesMem. Amer. Math. Soc. 267 (2020), no. 1299, v+137, 2015
We develop in detail the theory of c-projective geometry, a natural analogue of projective differential geometry adapted to complex manifolds. We realise it as a type of parabolic geometry and describe the associated Cartan or tractor connection. A Kaehler manifold gives rise to a c-projective structure and this is one of the primary motivations for ...

$C^{1,1}$ regularity of degenerate complex Monge-Ampère equations and some applications [PDF]

open access: yesAnalysis & PDE 14 (2021) 1671-1700, 2018
In this paper, we prove a $C^{1,1}$ estimate for solutions of complex Monge-Amp\`{e}re equations on compact almost Hermitian manifolds. Using this $C^{1,1}$ estimate, we show existence of $C^{1,1}$ solutions to the degenerate Monge-Amp\`{e}re equations, the corresponding Dirichlet problems and the singular Monge-Amp\`{e}re equations.

Geometry of universal embedding spaces for almost complex manifolds [PDF]

open access: yes
summary:We investigate the geometry of universal embedding spaces for compact almost-complex manifolds of a given dimension, and related constructions that allow for an extrinsic study of the integrability of almost-complex structures.
