Deformations of Non-Compact, Projective Manifolds

چکیده
In this paper, we demonstrate that the complete, hyperbolic representation of various two-bridge knot and link groups enjoy a certain local rigidity property inside of the PGL4(R) character variety. We also prove a complementary result showing that under certain rigidity hypotheses, branched covers of amphicheiral knots admit non-trivial deformations near the complete, hyperbolic representation.

On Deformations of Kähler Manifolds with Non Vanishing Holomorphic Vector Fields
In this article we study compact Kähler manifolds admitting nonsingular holomorphic vector fields with the aim of extending to this setting the classical birational classification of projective varieties with tangent vector fields. We introduce and analyze a particular type of deformations, that we call tangential deformations, and we prove that each compact Kähler manifold X with nowhere vanis...
متن کاملDeformation of Kähler Manifolds
It has been shown by Claire Voisin in 2003 that one cannot always deform a compact Kähler manifold into a projective algebraic manifold, thereby answering negatively a question raised by Kodaira. In this article, we prove that under an additional semipositivity or seminegativity condition on the canonical bundle, the answer becomes positive, namely such a compact Kähler manifold can be approxim...
متن کاملDeformations of Hypercomplex Structures
Twistor theory shows that deformations of a hypercomplex manifold correspond to deformations of a canonically constructed holomorphic map from the twistor space of the hypercomplex manifold onto the complex projective line. Applying Horikawa's theory of deformations of maps, we calculate deformations of compact quotients and twists of the associated bundles of quaternionic manifolds. In particu...
متن کاملWarped product and quasi-Einstein metrics
Warped products provide a rich class of physically significant geometric objects. Warped product construction is an important method to produce a new metric with a base manifold and a fibre. We construct compact base manifolds with a positive scalar curvature which do not admit any non-trivial quasi-Einstein warped product, and non compact complete base manifolds which do not admit any non-triv...
متن کاملDeformations of Holomorphic Poisson Manifolds
An unobstructedness theorem is proved for deformations of compact holomorphic Poisson manifolds and applied to a class of examples. These include certain rational surfaces and Hilbert schemes of points on Poisson surfaces. We study in particular the Hilbert schemes of the projective plane and show that a generic deformation is determined by two parameters—an elliptic curve and a translation on ...
