Abstract We show that compact Kähler manifolds have the rational cohomology ring of complex projective space provided a weighted sum of the lowest three eigenvalues of the Kähler curvature operator is positive. This follows from a more general vanishing and estimation theorem for the individual Hodge numbers. We also prove an analogue of Tachibana’s theorem for Kähler manifolds.

AbstractWe determine the structure of the Hodge ring, a natural object encoding the Hodge numbers of all compact Kähler manifolds. As a consequence of this structure, there are no unexpected relations among the Hodge numbers, and no essential differences between the Hodge numbers of smooth complex projective varieties and those of arbitrary Kähler manifolds. The consideration of certain natural ideals in the Hodge ring allows us to determine exactly which linear combinations of Hodge numbers are birationally invariant, and which are topological invariants. Combining the Hodge and unitary bordism rings, we are also able to treat linear combinations of Hodge and Chern numbers. In particular, this leads to a complete solution of a classical problem of Hirzebruch’s.

Abstract In this paper we study Kähler manifolds that are strongly not relative to any projective Kähler manifold, i.e. those Kähler manifolds that do not share a Kähler submanifold with any projective Kähler manifold even when their metric is rescaled by the multiplication by a positive constant. We prove two results which highlight some relations between this property and the existence of a full Kähler immersion into the infinite dimensional complex projective space. As application we get that the 1-parameter families of Bergman-Hartogs and Fock-Bargmann-Hartogs domains are strongly not relative to projective Kähler manifolds.

AbstractWe extend to compact Kähler manifolds some classical results on linear representation of fundamental groups of complex projective manifolds. Our approach, based on an interversion lemma for fibrations with tori versus general type manifolds as fibers, gives a refinement of the classical work of Zuo. We extend to the Kähler case some general results on holomorphic convexity of coverings such as the linear Shafarevich conjecture.

Let [Formula: see text] be a complex projective toric manifold. We associated to [Formula: see text], a positive and closed [Formula: see text]-current called the canonical toric Kähler current of [Formula: see text] denoted by [Formula: see text], and a new invariant called the canonical spectrum of [Formula: see text]. This spectrum is obtained as the set of the eigenvalues of a singular Laplacian defined by [Formula: see text] and which is described uniquely by the combinatorial structure of [Formula: see text]. The construction of this Laplacian and the study of its spectral properties are the consequence of a generalized spectral theory of Laplacians on compact Kähler manifolds that we develop in this paper.

AbstractLet M be a complete Riemannian manifold and suppose {p\in M}. For each unit vector {v\in T_{p}M}, the Jacobi operator, {\mathcal{J}_{v}:v^{\perp}\rightarrow v^{\perp}} is the symmetric endomorphism, {\mathcal{J}_{v}(w)=R(w,v)v}. Then p is an isotropic point if there exists a constant {\kappa_{p}\in{\mathbb{R}}} such that {\mathcal{J}_{v}=\kappa_{p}\operatorname{Id}_{v^{\perp}}} for each unit vector {v\in T_{p}M}. If all points are isotropic, then M is said to be isotropic; it is a classical result of Schur that isotropic manifolds of dimension at least 3 have constant sectional curvatures. In this paper we consider almost isotropic manifolds, i.e. manifolds having the property that for each {p\in M}, there exists a constant {\kappa_{p}\in\mathbb{R}} such that the Jacobi operators {\mathcal{J}_{v}} satisfy {\operatorname{rank}({\mathcal{J}_{v}-\kappa_{p}\operatorname{Id}_{v^{\perp}}}% )\leq 1} for each unit vector {v\in T_{p}M}. Our main theorem classifies the almost isotropic simply connected Kähler manifolds, proving that those of dimension {d=2n\geqslant 4} are either isometric to complex projective space or complex hyperbolic space or are totally geodesically foliated by leaves isometric to {{\mathbb{C}}^{n-1}}.

The class of fundamental groups of non-singular complex projective varieties is an interesting, but as yet imperfectly understood, class of finitely presented groups. Membership of is known to be extremely restricted (see [22, 23]). In this paper, we employ geometrical rigidity properties to realize some group extensions as elements of as in our previous papers, we find it convenient to work simultaneously with the class ℋ of fundamental groups of compact Kähler manifolds.

We classify real hypersurfaces with isometric Reeb flow in the complex quadrics Qm = SOm+2/SOmSO2, m ≥ 3. We show that m is even, say m = 2k, and any such hypersurface is an open part of a tube around a k-dimensional complex projective space ℂPk which is embedded canonically in Q2k as a totally geodesic complex submanifold. As a consequence, we get the non-existence of real hypersurfaces with isometric Reeb flow in odd-dimensional complex quadrics Q2k+1, k ≥ 1. To our knowledge the odd-dimensional complex quadrics are the first examples of homogeneous Kähler manifolds which do not admit a real hypersurface with isometric Reeb flow.

Topology of positively curved compact Kähler manifolds had been studied by several authors (cf. [6; 2]); these manifolds are simply connected and their second Betti number is one [1]. We will restrict ourselves to the study of some compact homogeneous Kähler manifolds. The aim of this paper is to supplement some results in [9]. We prove, among other results, that a compact, simply connected homogeneous complex manifold whose Euler number is a prime p ≥ 2 is isomorphic to the complex projective space Pp-1 (C); in the p-1 case of surfaces, we prove that a compact, simply connected, homogeneous almost complex surface with Euler-Poincaré characteristic positive, is hermitian symmetric.
