Seminar in Geometry and Topology

HSE, Moscow.

will speak on

Kahler threefolds without subvarieties

Abstract:
Let $M$ be a compact Kahler 3-fold without non-trivial subvarieties. We prove that $M$ is a complex torus. The proof is based on Brunella's fundamental theorem about structure of 1-dimensional holomorphic foliations and Demailly's regularization of positive currents. This is a joint work with F. Campana and J.-P. Demailly. I will try to explain all notions to make the lecture accessible for anybody with basic knowledge of differential and algebraic geometry.


The lecture will take place in the Seminar Room, Room 261, Ziskind Building
