A residue formula for meromorphic connections and applications to stable sets of foliations

We discuss residue formulae that localize the first Chern class of a line bundle to the singular locus of a given holomorphic connection. As an application, we explain a proof for Brunella's conjecture about exceptional minimal sets of codimension one holomorphic foliations with ample normal bundle and for a nonexistence theorem of Levi flat hypersurfaces with transversely affine Levi foliation in compact Kähler surfaces.

Dynamical aspects of foliations with ample normal bundle

We prove the following result that was conjectured by Brunella: Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold of dimension $\geq 3$. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a codimension one holomorphic foliation on $X$ with ample normal bundle. Then every leaf of $\mathcal{F}$ accumulates to the singular set of $\mathcal{F}$.

On holomorphic foliations admitting invariant CR manifolds

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 compact invariant set that is a complete intersection of $k$ smooth real hypersurfaces in $X$.

A stability theorem for projective $CR$ manifolds

We consider smooth deformations of the $CR$ structure of a smooth $2$-pseudoconcave compact $CR$ submanifold $\textsf{M}$ of a reduced complex analytic variety $\textsf{X}$ outside the intersection $D\,{\cap}\,\textsf{M}$ with the support $D$ of a Cartier divisor of a positive line bundle $\texttt{F}_{\textsf{X}}.$ We show that nearby structures still admit projective $CR$ embeddings. Special results are obtained under the additional assumptions that $\textsf{X}$ is a projective space or a Fano variety.

Aspects of the Levi form

We discuss various analytical and geometrical aspects of the Levi form, which is associated with a CR manifold having any CR dimension and any CR codimension.

Flexible and inflexible $CR$ submanifolds

In this paper we prove new embedding results for compactly supported deformations of $CR$ submanifolds of $\mathbb{C}^{n+d}$: We show that if $M$ is a $2$-pseudoconcave $CR$ submanifold of type $(n,d)$ in $\mathbb{C}^{n+d}$, then any compactly supported $CR$ deformation stays in the space of globally $CR$ embeddable in $\mathbb{C}^{n+d}$ manifolds. This improves an earlier result, where $M$ was assumed to be a quadratic $2$-pseudoconcave $CR$ submanifold of $\mathbb{C}^{n+d}$. We also give examples of weakly $2$-pseudoconcave $CR$ manifolds admitting compactly supported $CR$ deformations that are not even locally $CR$ embeddable.

On the normal bundle of Levi-flat real hypersurfaces

Let $X$ be a connected complex manifold of dimension $\geq 3$ and $M$ a smooth compact Levi-flat real hypersurface in $X$. We show that the normal bundle to the Levi foliation does not admit a Hermitian metric with positive curvature along the leaves. This generalizes a result obtained by Brunella.

Lorentzian $CR$ structures and nonembeddability

In this paper we construct examples of $CR$ deformations of Lorentzian hypersurfaces which are $CR$ embeddable at all points outside an arbitrarily small compact set whose interior contains a point where $CR$ embeddablity is not possible.

Non locally trivializable $CR$ line bundles over compact Lorentzian $CR$ manifolds

We consider compact $CR$ manifolds of arbitrary $CR$ codimension that satisfy certain geometric conditions in terms of their Levi form. Over these compact $CR$ manifolds, we construct a deformation of the trivial $CR$ line bundle over $M$ which is topologically trivial over $M$ but fails to be even locally $CR$ trivializable over any open subset of $M$. In particular, our results apply to compact Lorentzian $CR$ manifolds of hypersurface type.

Inflexible $CR$ submanifolds

In this paper we introduce the concept of inflexible $CR$ submanifolds. These are $CR$ submanifolds of some complex Euclidean space such that any compactly supported $CR$ deformation is again globally $CR$ embeddable into some complex Euclidean space. Our main result is that any $2$-pseudoconcave quadratic $CR$ submanifold of type $(n,d)$ in $\mathbb{C}^{n+d}$ is inflexible.

Curvature restrictions for Levi-flat real hypersurfaces in complex projective planes

We study curvature restrictions of Levi-flat real hypersurfaces in complex projective planes, whose existence is in question. We focus on its totally real Ricci curvature, the Ricci curvature of the real hypersurface in the direction of the Reeb vector field, and show that it cannot be greater than -4 along a Levi-flat real hypersurface. We rely on a finiteness theorem for the space of square integrable holomorphic 2-forms on the complement of the Levi-flat real hypersurface, where the curvature plays the role of the size of the infinitesimal holonomy of its Levi foliation.

On the Cauchy problem for the debar operator

We present new results concerning the solvability, of lack thereof, in the Cauchy problem for the debar operator, with initial values assigned on a weakly pseudoconvex hypersurface, and provide illustrative examples.

Remarks on weakly pseudoconvex boundaries

In this paper, we consider the boundary M of a weakly pseudoconvex domain in a Stein manifold. We point out a striking difference between the local cohomology and the global cohomology of M, and illustrate this with an example. We also discuss the first and second Cousin problems, and the strong Poincare problem for CR meromorphic functions on the weakly pseudoconvex boundary M.

The Poincare lemma and local embeddability

For pseudoconvex abstract CR manifolds, the validity of the Poincare Lemma for (0,1) forms implies local embeddability in C^N. The two properties are equivalent for hypersurfaces of real dimension > or = 5. As a corollary we obtain a criterion for the non validity of the Poicare Lemma for (0,1) forms for a large class of abstract CR manifolds of CR codimension larger than one.
