Non-Kähler Calabi-Yau manifolds and holomorphic geometric structures

Abstract

We study holomorphic geometric structures on non-Kähler compact complex manifolds with trivial canonical line bundle. For Vaisman Calabi-Yau manifolds we prove that all holomorphic geometric structures of affine type on them are locally homogeneous. Moreover, if the geometric structure is rigid, then the Vaisman manifold must be a Kodaira manifold. The proof uses a Beauville-Bogomolov type decomposition from [Is] together with a weak form of Bochner principle for Vaisman Calabi-Yau manifolds that we prove here. Other results show that a compact complex manifold with self-dual holomorphic tangent bundle bearing a rigid holomorphic geometric structure of affine type have infinite fundamental group. We prove the same result for compact complex manifolds with trivial canonical line bundle having semistable holomorphic tangent bundle, with respect to some Gauduchon metric. We exhibit (non-Kähler) compact complex simply connected manifolds with trivial canonical line bundle that admit non-closed holomorphic one-forms.

Classification of compact manifolds with positive isotropic curvature

We show the following result: Let $(M,g_0)$ be a compact manifold of dimension $n\geq 12$ with positive isotropic curvature. Then $M$ is diffeomorphic to a spherical space form, or a quotient manifold of $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\times \mathbb{R}$ by a cocompact discrete subgroup of the isometry group of the round cylinder $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\times \mathbb{R}$, or a connected sum of a finite number of such manifolds. This extends previous works of Brendle and Chen-Tang-Zhu, and improves a work of Huang. The proof uses Ricci flow with surgery on compact orbifolds, with the help of the ambient isotopy uniqueness of closed tubular neighborhoods of an isolated singular point in an orbifold.

Isoparametric foliations and bounded geometry

We prove that there are only finitely many isoparametrically foliated closed connected Riemannian manifolds with bounded geometry, fixed dimension $n\neq5$, and finite fundamental group, up to foliated diffeomorphism. In addition, we construct various infinite families of isoparametric foliations that are mutually not foliated diffeomorphic, for instance on a fixed sphere.

Minimal foliations, codimension-one stable norms, and a question of Bangert

We compute the codimension-one stable norm for a natural class of cohomogeneity-one metrics on tori. In every dimension $n\ge3$, the formula yields smooth nonflat metrics for which each primitive codimension-one homology class is represented by a foliation of calibrated tori, giving a negative answer to a question of Bangert. On $\mathbb T^3$, we construct an infinite-dimensional family of nonflat metrics whose codimension-one stable norm agrees exactly with that of the unit cubic flat torus and whose total volume is fixed. An explicit two-parameter subfamily contains pairwise non-isometric metrics. These examples also show that the Euclidean-stable-norm-and-volume data are not locally injective near the cubic flat metric. Conversely, among smooth metrics on $\mathbb T^3$ admitting a free isometric circle action and having the cubic Euclidean codimension-one stable norm, we prove that volume is at most one, with equality only for the cubic flat metric up to an isometry isotopic to the identity.
