Study on algebraic curves' invariants and vanishing criteria.

We (1) characterize the Schubert varieties that arise as variations of Hodge structure (VHS); (2) show that the isotropy orbits of the infinitesimal Schubert VHS `span' the space of all infinitesimal VHS; and (3) show that the cohomology classes dual the Schubert VHS form a basis of the invariant characteristic cohomol…

The infinitesimal period relation (also known as Griffiths' transversality) is the system of partial differential equations constraining variations of Hodge structure. This paper presents a study of the characteristic cohomology associated with that system of pde.

We exhibit examples of projective varieties with degenerate Gauss mappings and determine numerical invariants of such varieties. Our examples provide counter-examples to an asserted structure theorem of Griffiths and Harris (Ann. Sci. ENS 1979).

In this paper we study a particular version of the Hermitian curvature flow (HCF) over a compact complex Hermitian manifold $(M,g,J)$. We prove that if the initial metric has Griffiths positive (non-negative) Chern curvature $Ω$, then this property is preserved along the flow. On a manifold with Griffiths non-negative …

The paper explores curvature positivity on Kähler and quasi-Kähler flag manifolds.

Upper bounds on projective rigidity of each homogeneously embedded homogeneous variety are determined; and a new, invariant characterization of the Fubini forms is given.

Unique solution found for Demailly's equation on stable bundles.

Paper proves positivity of Chern-Weil forms for certain vector bundles.

Following Kobayashi, we consider Griffiths negative complex Finsler bundles, naturally leading us to introduce Griffiths extremal Finsler metrics. As we point out, this notion is closely related to the theory of interpolation of norms, and is characterized by an equation of complex Monge--Ampère type, whose correspondi…

We discuss the Morse estimates for the curvature of several metrics on Semple weighted projective bundle over a projective variety. Following Demailly works on holomorphic Morse inequalities we show an analogue of his results along the Green-Griffiths conjecture for invariant jets.

The paper proves positivity of third Chern form for certain vector bundles.

Metrics are semipositively curved if they meet a specific asymptotic condition.

The Griffiths conjecture asserts that every ample vector bundle $E$ over a compact complex manifold $S$ admits a hermitian metric with positive curvature in the sense of Griffiths. In this article we give a sufficient condition for a positive hermitian metric on $\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}(E^*)}(1)$ to induce a Griffiths …

Study of weakly Kähler hyperbolic manifolds, proving Lang and Green-Griffiths conjectures.

We study holomorphic foliations of codimension $k\geq 1$ on a complex manifold $X$ of dimension $n+k$ from the point of view of the exceptional minimal set conjecture. For $n\geq 2$ we show in particular that if the holomorphic normal bundle $N_{\mathcal{F}}$ is Griffiths positive, then the foliation does not admit a c…

The paper examines positivity properties of singular Hermitian metrics.

We give a simple proof of a result on the $\partial\bar{\partial}$-lemma property under a blow-up transformation by Deligne--Griffiths--Morgan--Sullivan's criterion. Here, we use an explicit blow-up formula for Dolbeault cohomology given in our previous work, which can be induced by a morphism expressed on the level of…

Proves a conjecture about Riemann surfaces using PDEs.

Associated to every generalized complex structure is a differential Gerstenhaber algebra (DGA). When the generalized complex structure deforms, so does the associated DGA. In this paper, we identify the infinitesimal conditions when the DGA is invariant as the generalized complex structure deforms. We prove that the in…

This is a survey article on two topics. The Energy E of knots can be obtained by generalizing an electrostatic energy of charged knots in order to produce optimal knots. It turns out to be invariant under Moebius transformations. We show that it can be expressed in terms of the infinitesimal cross ratio, which is a con…

The paper extends positivity results from vector bundles to Kobayashi positive ones.

We categorify the notion of an infinitesimal braiding in a linear strict symmetric monoidal category, leading to the notion of a (strict) infinitesimal 2-braiding in a linear symmetric strict monoidal 2-category. We describe the associated categorification of the 4-term relation, leading to six categorified relations. …

In this article, we define and study the total Milnor invariant and the infinitesimal Morita-Milnor homomorphism as punctured disk analogues of the total Johnson map and the infinitesimal Morita homomorphism studied by Kawazumi and Massuyeau in the case of surface of positive genus with one boundary component.

For a one parameter family of Calabi-Yau threefolds, Green, Griffiths and Kerr have expressed the total singularities in terms of the degrees of Hodge bundles and Euler number of the general fiber. In this paper, we show that the total singularities can be expressed by the sum of asymptotic values of BCOV invariants, s…

Griffiths' first obstruction formula for vector bundles is derived.

This paper applies the authors' forthcoming work, "Affine deformations of a three-holed sphere" in Lorentzian geometry to prove a result in hyperbolic geometry. Namely, an infinitesimal deformation of a hyperbolic structure of a three-holed sphere which infinitesimally lengthens the three boundary components infinitesi…

When a gauge-natural invariant variational principle is assigned, to determine {\em canonical} covariant conservation laws, the vertical part of gauge-natural lifts of infinitesimal principal automorphisms -- defining infinitesimal variations of sections of gauge-natural bundles -- must satisfy generalized Jacobi equat…

Establishes Morita equivalence for Nijenhuis structures and proves invariance of modular class.

It is presently our aim to undertake the discussion, of the Parts I and II, on the infinitesimal level and outline as well the transition from infinitesimal to finite, the main reason for this being, of course, the well known fact that arguments and calculation on the infinitesimal level are far simpler that those on t…

The paper proves conditions for vector bundles to be Kobayashi and Griffiths positive.

In this paper we study the infinitesimal symmetries, Newtonoid vector fields, infinitesimal Noether symmetries and conservation laws of Hamiltonian systems. Using the dynamical covariant derivative and Jacobi endomorphism on the cotangent bundle we find the invariant equations of infinitesimal symmetries and Newtonoid …

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be an integrable Pfaffian system. If it is invariant under a transversally free infinitesimal action of a finite dimensional real Lie algebra $g$ and consequently invariant under the local action of a Lie group $G$, we show that the vertical variational cohomology of $\mathcal{S}$ is equal to the Lie …

The paper proves a pointwise Gysin formula for vector bundles and applies it to show positivity of polynomials.

In this note, we study an invariant associated to the zeros of the moment map generated by an action form, the infinitesimal index. This construction will be used to study the compactly supported equivariant cohomology of the zeros of the moment map and to give formulas for the multiplicity index map of a transversally…

Solved Demailly systems for Vortex bundles on manifolds.

The aim of this paper is to study symmetries of linearly singular differential equations, namely, equations that can not be written in normal form because the derivatives are multiplied by a singular linear operator. The concept of geometric symmetry of a linearly singular differential equation is introduced as a trans…

We compute all the simply connected homogeneous and infinitesimally homogeneous surfaces admitting one or more invariant affine connections. We find exactly six non equivalent simply connected homogeneous surfaces admitting more than one invariant connections and four classes of simply connected homogeneous surfaces ad…

We derive a formula for the eta invariants of equivariant Dirac operators on quotients of compact Lie groups, and for their infinitesimally equivariant extension. As an example, we give some computations for spheres.

Proves a formula for push-forward of polynomial Chern forms in universal vector bundles.

We present a new link between the Invariant Theory of infinitesimal singular Riemannian foliations and Jordan algebras. This, together with an inhomogeneous version of Weyl's First Fundamental Theorems, provides a characterization of the recently discovered Clifford foliations in terms of basic polynomials. This link a…
