Pseudodistances and Pseudometrics on real and complex manifolds

Summary In this paper we study the relationships between a class of distances and infinitesimal metrics on real and complex manifolds and their behavior under differentiable and holomorphic mappings. Some application to Riemannian and Finsler geometry are given and also new proofs and generalizations of some results of Royden, Harris and Reiffen on Kobayashi and Carathéodory metrics on complex manifolds are obtained. In particular we prove that on every complex manifold (finite or infinite- dimensional) the Kobayashi distance is the integrated form of the corresponding infinitesimal metric.

A Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorem for complex Finsler manifolds

Using Chern’s method of transgression and the currents, we establish a Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorem for general closed complex Finsler manifolds (M, F). This result extends the classical Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorem for Hermitian manifolds. Furthermore, a simplified version of the Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorem is obtained in the case of complex Berwald 1-manifolds.     

Aspherical Kähler manifolds with solvable fundamental group

We survey recent developments which led to the proof of the Benson-Gordon conjecture on Kähler quotients of solvable Lie groups. In addition, we prove that the Albanese morphism of a Kähler manifold which is a homotopy torus is a biholomorphic map. The latter result then implies the classification of compact aspherical Kähler manifolds with (virtually) solvable fundamental group up to biholomorphic equivalence. They are all biholomorphic to complex manifolds which are obtained as a quotient of $\mathbb{C}^{n}We survey recent developments which led to the proof of the Benson-Gordon conjecture on K?hler quotients of solvable Lie groups.

The Mitchell-Richter filtration of loops on Stiefel manifolds stably splits

We prove that the Mitchell-Richter filtration of the space of loops on complex Stiefel manifolds stably splits. The result is obtained as a special case of a more general splitting theorem. Another special case is H. Miller's splitting of Stiefel manifolds. The proof uses the theory of orthogonal calculus developed by M. Weiss. The argument is inspired by an old argument of Goodwillie for a different, but closely related, general splitting result.

     

Compact complex manifolds bimeromorphic to locally conformally Kähler manifolds

We study compact complex manifolds bimeromorphic to locally conformally Kähler (LCK) manifolds. This is an analogy of studying a compact complex manifold bimeromorphic to a Kähler manifold. We give a negative answer for a question of Ornea, Verbitsky, Vuletescu by showing that there exists no LCK current on blow ups along a submanifold (dim \(\ge 1\)) of Vaisman manifolds. We show that a compact complex manifold with LCK currents satisfying a certain condition can be modified to an LCK manifold. Based on this fact, we define a compact complex manifold with a modification from an LCK manifold as a locally conformally class C (LC class C) manifold. We give examples of LC class C manifolds that are not LCK manifolds. Finally, we show that all LC class C manifolds are locally conformally balanced manifolds.     

Equivariant deformations of meromorphic actions on compact complex manifolds

Meromorphicity is the most basic property for holomorphic -actions on compact complex manifolds. We prove that the meromorphicity of -actions on compact complex manifolds are not necessarily preserved by small deformations, if the complex dimension of complex manifolds is greater than two. In contrast, we also show that the meromorphicity of -actions on compact complex surface depends only on the topology (the first Betti number) of the surface. We construct such examples of dimension greater than two by studying an equivariant deformation of certain complex threefold, so called a twistor space.

Classical Symmetries of Complex Manifolds

We consider complex manifolds that admit actions by holomorphic transformations of classical simple real Lie groups and classify all such manifolds in a natural situation. Under our assumptions, which require the group at hand to be dimension-theoretically large with respect to the manifold on which it is acting, our classification result states that the manifolds which arise are described precisely as invariant open subsets of certain complex flag manifolds associated to the complexified groups.     

Integral formulas for differential forms of type (p,q) on complex Finsler manifolds

Using the invariant integral kernel introduced by Demailly and Laurent-Thiebaut, complex Finsler metric and nonlinear connection associating with Chern-Finsler connection, we research the integral representation theory on complex Finsler manifolds. The Koppelman and Koppelman-Leray formulas are obtained, and the -equations are solved.     

Examples of Hermitian manifolds with pointwise constant anti-holomorphic sectional curvature

We construct non-compact examples of Hermitian manifolds with pointwise constant anti-holomorphic sectional curvature. Our examples are obtained by conformal change of the metric on an open set of the complex space form.     

Hessian Comparison and Spectrum Lower Bound of Almost Hermitian Manifolds

The authors obtain a complex Hessian comparison for almost Hermitian manifolds, which generalizes the Laplacian comparison for almost Hermitian manifolds by Tossati, and a sharp spectrum lower bound for compact quasi Kähler manifolds and a sharp complex Hessian comparison on nearly Kähler manifolds that generalize previous results of Aubin, Li Wang and Tam-Yu.     

Note on the existence of almost omplex structures on compact manifolds

In the paper we define a multiplicative genus of a compact orientable manifold. We use this genus for the study of the existence of almost complex structures on manifolds. A few applications are given, namely, we prove the nonexistence of an almost complex structure on quaternionic flag manifolds and give a theorem on the existence of an almost complex structure on the product of manifolds.     

Examples of Hermitian Manifolds with Pointwise Constant Holomorphic Sectional Curvature

We construct non-compact examples of Hermitian manifolds with pointwise constant holomorphic sectional curvature. Our examples are obtained by conformal change of the metric on an open set of the complex space form.     

Kähler manifolds of quasi-constant holomorphic sectional curvatures

The Kähler manifolds of quasi-constant holomorphic sectional curvatures are introduced as Kähler manifolds with complex distribution of codimension two, whose holomorphic sectional curvature only depends on the corresponding point and the geometric angle, associated with the section. A curvature identity characterizing such manifolds is found. The biconformal group of transformations whose elements transform Kähler metrics into Kähler ones is introduced and biconformal tensor invariants are obtained. This makes it possible to classify the manifolds under consideration locally. The class of locally biconformal flat Kähler metrics is shown to be exactly the class of Kähler metrics whose potential function is only a function of the distance from the origin in ? ⁿ . Finally we show that any rotational even dimensional hypersurface carries locally a natural Kähler structure which is of quasi-constant holomorphic sectional curvatures.     

The Linearized Calderón Problem on Complex Manifolds

In this note we show that on any compact subdomain of a Kähler manifold that admits sufficiently many global holomorphic functions, the products of harmonic functions form a complete set. This gives a positive answer to the linearized anisotropic Calderón problem on a class of complex manifolds that includes compact subdomains of Stein manifolds and sufficiently small subdomains of Kähler manifolds. Some of these manifolds do not admit limiting Carleman weights, and thus cannot be treated by standard methods for the Calderón problem in higher dimensions. The argument is based on constructing Morse holomorphic functions with approximately prescribed critical points. This extends earlier results from the case of Riemann surfaces to higher dimensional complex manifolds.     

Harmonic analysis on symmetric Stein manifolds from the point of view of complex analysis

The classical theory of finite dimensional representations of compact and complex semisimple Lie groups is discussed from the perspective of multidimensional complex geometry and analysis. The key tool is the complex horospherical transform which establishes a duality between spaces of holomorphic functions on symmetric Stein manifolds and dual horospherical manifolds.

Harmonic Riemannian maps on locally conformal Kaehler manifolds

We study harmonic Riemannian maps on locally conformal Kaehler manifolds (lcK manifolds). We show that if a Riemannian holomorphic map between lcK manifolds is harmonic, then the Lee vector field of the domain belongs to the kernel of the Riemannian map under a condition. When the domain is Kaehler, we prove that a Riemannian holomorphic map is harmonic if and only if the lcK manifold is Kaehler. Then we find similar results for Riemannian maps between lcK manifolds and Sasakian manifolds. Finally, we check the constancy of some maps between almost complex (or almost contact) manifolds and almost product manifolds.
