Project description
A closer look at the curvature of complex manifolds
The curvature properties of complex manifolds, such as Kobayashi hyperbolic and Oka manifolds, remain a challenging area of research. These manifolds exhibit unique traits (rigidity in the case of Kobayashi hyperbolic manifolds and flexibility in Oka manifolds) that impact multiple fields, from number theory to geometry. Understanding these curvature properties could provide crucial insights into their geometry, offering new examples and revealing connections with other important manifolds. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the CURV-FLEX-RIG project merges complex analysis and differential geometry, combining the expertise of researchers specialising in both areas. Overall, the research will foster significant knowledge transfer and produce results shared across global platforms.
Objective
This research program will address the curvature properties of two important classes of complex manifolds: Kobayashi hyperbolic manifolds and Oka manifolds. These manifolds are characterized by a degree of holomorphic rigidity and flexibility, respectively, and have appeared in many branches of mathematics, from number theory to algebraic and differential geometry. A grasp of the curvature properties of these manifolds will offer valuable insights into their geometry, facilitate the generation of examples, and elucidate their relationship to important classes of manifolds---for instance, rationally connected manifolds, which play a central role in algebraic geometry.
The experienced researcher (ER) has established major improvements in the main techniques that are used in the differential geometric study of Kobayashi hyperbolic manifolds, namely the Schwarz lemma. On the other hand, the field of Oka manifolds has seen tremendous growth primarily from the work of the host supervisor, who is the world leader in the subject, and a world leader in complex analysis more generally.
The research program will not only merge these areas of expertise but also merge the complex analysis and differential geometry communities. The action will consist of a high transfer of knowledge to the ER, the host supervisor, and the host organization. The results of the action will be disseminated through online video platforms within which the ER has established himself as an experienced and proficient member.
