The paper proves a factorization theorem for harmonic maps between Riemann surfaces and manifolds.

For a representation of a finite group $G$ on a complex vector space $V$ we determine when a holomorphic $\binom{p}{q}$-tensor field on the principle stratum of the orbit space $V/G$ can be lifted to a holomorphic $G$-invariant tensor field on $V$. This extends also to connections. As a consequence we determine those h…

Study shows Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms form a connected component in $C^0$-topology for most symplectic rational surfaces.

We show that conformally compact, globally hyperbolic, Lorentzian Einstein-Weyl 3-manifolds are in natural one-to-one correspondence with orientation-reversing diffeomorphisms of the 2-sphere. The proof hinges on a holomorphic-disk analog of Hitchin's mini-twistor correspondence.

A map between twistor spaces is defined based on metrics, showing holomorphicity under specific conditions.

A manifold $M$ is locally conformally Kahler (LCK) if it admits a Kahler covering with monodromy acting by holomorphic homotheties. Let $M$ be an LCK manifold admitting a holomorphic conformal flow of diffeomorphisms, lifted to a non-isometric homothetic flow on its covering. We show that $M$ admits an automorphic pote…

Let G be a compact Lie group and X be a compact smooth G-manifold with finitely many G-fixed points. We show that if X admits a G-equivariant hyperbolic diffeomorphism having a certain convergence property, there exists an open covering of X indexed by the G-fixed points so that each open set is G-stable and G-equivari…

For the sake of hyperk{ä}hler SYZ conjecture, finding holomorphic Lagrangian fibrations becomes an important issue. Toric hyperk{ä}hler manifolds are real dimension $4n$ non-compact hyperk{ä}hler manifolds which are quaternion analog of toric varieties. The $n$ dimensional residue circle action on it admitting a hyperk…

A classical result of Sampson and Schoen-Yau in 1978 states that every diffeomorphism between compact hyperbolic Riemann surfaces is homotopic to an harmonic diffeomorphism. As conjectured by Schoen in 1993 and partially proved by Wan in 1992 and Tam-Wan in 1995, we prove in this article that this theorem generalizes t…

We construct an infinite dimensional real analytic manifold structure for the space of real analytic mappings from a compact manifold to a locally convex manifold. Here a map is real analytic if it extends to a holomorphic map on some neighbourhood of the complexification of its domain. As is well known the constructio…

Develops second order infinitesimal structures on Teichmüller space.

We give a complete proof of a propagation theorem of multiplicity-free property from fibers to spaces of global sections for holomorphic vector bundles. The propagation theorem is formalised in three ways, aiming for producing various multiplicity-free theorems in representation theory for both finite and infinite dime…

Corks transform complex curves without changing topology.

For every diffeomorphism $\varphi:M\to N$ between 3--dimensional Riemannian manifolds $M$ and $N$ there are in general locally two 2--dimensional distributions $D_{\pm}$ such that $\varphi$ is conformal on both of them. We state necessary and sufficient conditions for a distribution to be one of $D_{\pm}$. These are al…

We prove that the Teichmueller disc stabilized by the Arnoux-Yoccoz pseudo-Anosov diffeomorphism contains at least two closed Teichmueller geodesics. This proves that the corresponding flat surface does not have a cyclic Veech group. In addition, we prove that this Teichmueller disc is dense inside the hyperelliptic lo…

Non-linear Hopf manifolds can be embedded into linear ones and admit LCK metrics.

Motivated by questions of deformations/moduli in foliation theory, we investigate the structure of some groups of diffeomorphisms preserving a foliation. We give an example of a $C^\infty$ foliation whose diffeomorphism group is not a Lie group in any reasonable sense. On the positive side, we prove that the automorphi…

Classifies Real primary Hopf surfaces and their associated groups.

We discuss bases of the space of holomorphic quadratic differentials that are dual to the differentials of Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates and hence appear naturally when considering functions on the set of hyperbolic metrics which are invariant under pull-back by diffeomorphisms, such as eigenvalues of the Laplacian. The …

We show that simply connected contact manifolds that are subcritically Stein fillable have a unique symplectically aspherical filling up to diffeomorphism. Various extensions to manifolds with non-trivial fundamental group are discussed. The proof rests on homological restrictions on symplectic fillings derived from a …

Following a line of reasoning suggested by Eliashberg, we prove Cerf's theorem that any diffeomorphism of the 3-sphere extends over the 4-ball. To this end we develop a moduli-theoretic version of Eliashberg's filling-with-holomorphic-discs method.

Let M,M' be smooth real hypersurfaces in N-dimensional space and assume that M is k-nondegenerate at a point p in M. We prove that holomorphic mappings that extend smoothly to M, sending a neighborhood of p in M diffeomorphically into M' are completely determined by their 2k-jet at p. As an application of this result, …

We characterize compact locally conformally Kähler (l.c.K.) manifolds under the assumption of a purely conformal, holomorphic circle action. As an application, we determine the structure of the compact l.c.K. manifolds with parallel Lee form. We introduce the Lee-Cauchy-Riemann (LCR) transformations as a class of diffe…

Thurston obtained a classification of individual surface homeomorphisms via the dynamics of the corresponding mapping class elements on Teichmüller space. In this paper we present certain extended versions of this, first, to random products of homeomorphisms and second, to holomorphic self-maps of Teichmüller spaces.

We say that a fixed point of a diffeomorphism is non-degenerate if 1 is not an eigenvalue of the linearization at the fixed point. We use pseudo-holomorphic curves techniques to prove the following: the inclusion map $i: \text{Diff} ^{1} (S ^{2} ) \to \text{Diff} (S^2)$ vanishes on all homotopy groups, where $\text{D…

This paper initiated an investigation on the following question: Suppose a smooth 4-manifold does not admit any smooth circle actions. Does there exist a constant $C>0$ such that the manifold support no smooth $\Z_p$-actions of prime order for $p>C$? We gave affirmative results to this question for the case of holomorp…

Study of flows on complex manifolds with holomorphic properties.

We study two kinds of transformation groups of a compact locally conformally Kahler (l.c.K.) manifold. First we study compact l.c.K. manifolds with parallel Lee form by means of the existence of a holomorphic l.c.K. flow. Next, we introduce the Lee-Cauchy-Riemann (LCR) transformations as a class of diffeomorphisms pres…

A visible action on a complex manifold is a holomorphic action that admits a $J$-transversal totally real submanifold $S$. It is said to be strongly visible if there exists an orbit-preserving anti-holomorphic diffeomorphism $σ$ such that $σ|_S = \mathrm{id}$. In this paper, we prove that for any Hermitian symmetric sp…

It is proven that a local Lie algebra in the sense of A. A. Kirillov determines the base manifold up to a diffeomorphism provided the anchor map is nowhere-vanishing. In particular, the Lie algebras of nowhere-vanishing Poisson or Jacobi brackets determine manifolds. This result has been proven for different types of d…

Assuming uniform bounds for the curvature, the exponential convergence of the Kähler-Ricci flow is established under two conditions which are a form of stability: the Mabuchi energy is bounded from below, and the dimension of the space of holomorphic vector fields in an orbit of the diffeomorphism group cannot jump up …

We introduce a class of surfaces in euclidean space motivated by a problem posed by Élie Cartan. This class furnishes what seems to be the first examples of pairs of non-congruent surfaces in euclidean space such that, under a diffeomorphism $Φ$, lines of curvatures are preserved and principal curvatures are switched. …

Study shows boundary of Milnor fibre is invariant for certain singularities.

This paper generalizes a result about bounded differentials to higher-order differentials and studies their geometric implications.

In 1995, Dan Guan constructed examples of non-Kahler, simply-connected holomorphically symplectic manifolds. An alternative construction, using the Hilbert scheme of Kodaira-Thurston surface, was given by F. Bogomolov. We investigate topology and deformation theory of Bogomolov-Guan manifolds and show that it is simila…

We study groups of germs of complex diffeomorphisms having a property called irreducibility. The notion is motivated by the similar property of the fundamental group of the complement of na irreducible hypersurface in the complex projective space. Natural examples of such groups of germ maps are given by holonomy group…

We introduce a holomorphic sheaf E on a Sasaki manifold and study two new notions of stability for E along the Sasaki-Ricci flow related to the `jumping up' of the number of global holomorphic sections of E at infinity. First, we show that if the Mabuchi K-energy is bounded below, the transverse Riemann tensor is bound…

15 Einstein 4-manifolds with positive conformal curvature are classified.

For a smooth strictly pseudoconvex hypersurface in a complex manifold, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for being CR-diffeomorphic to a real-analytic CR manifold. Our condition amounts to a holomorphic extension property for the canonically associated function expressing $2$-jets of the formal Segre varieti…

In this paper, we focus on contact structures supported by planar open book decompositions. We study right-veering diffeomorphisms to keep track of overtwistedness property of contact structures under some monodromy changes. As an application we give infinitely many examples of overtwisted contact structures supported …

Representations of $C^*$-algebras are realized on section spaces of holomorphic homogeneous vector bundles. The corresponding section spaces are investigated by means of a new notion of reproducing kernel, suitable for dealing with involutive diffeomorphisms defined on the base spaces of the bundles. Applications of th…

Complex manifolds can only map to curves, restricting Clemens threefolds and $S^6$.

The symplectic Floer homology HF_*(f) of a symplectomorphism f:S->S encodes data about the fixed points of f using counts of holomorphic cylinders in R x M_f, where M_f is the mapping torus of f. We give an algorithm to compute HF_*(f) for f a surface symplectomorphism in a pseudo-Anosov or reducible mapping class, com…

We construct infinitely many non-diffeomorphic examples of $5$-dimensional contact manifolds which are tight, admit no strong fillings, and do not have Giroux torsion. We obtain obstruction results for symplectic cobordisms, for which we give a proof not relying on the polyfold abstract perturbation scheme for SFT. The…

Let $\1$ and $\2$ be $\s$ domains in $\Cn$ and $f: \1 \rt \2$ an isometry for the Kobayashi or Carathéodory metrics. Suppose that $f$ extends as a $C^1$ map to $ \bar \om_1$. We then prove that $f|_{\partial \1}: \partial \1 \rt \partial \2$ is a CR or anti-CR diffeomorphism. It follows that $\1$ and $\2$ must be bihol…

The first part of this article is devoted to the study families of totally real intersecting $n$-submanifolds of $(\Bbb C^n,0)$. We give some conditions which allow to straighten holomorphically the family. If this is not possible to do it formally, we construct a germ of complex analytic set at the origin which intere…

In this paper a study of $G$-minimality, i.e., minimality of four-manifolds equipped with an action of a finite group $G$, is initiated. We focus on cyclic actions on $CP^2\# \overline{CP^2}$, and our work shows that even in this simple setting, the comparison of $G$-minimality in the various categories, i.e., locally …
