Oka theory of blow-ups

Algebraic subellipticity and dominability of blow-ups of affine spaces

Little is known about the behaviour of the Oka property of a complex manifold with respect to blowing up a submanifold. A manifold is of Class $\mathscr A$ if it is the complement of an algebraic subvariety of codimension at least $2$ in an algebraic manifold that is Zariski-locally isomorphic to $\mathbb C^n$. A manifold of Class $\mathscr A$ is algebraically subelliptic and hence Oka, and a manifold of Class $\mathscr A$ blown up at finitely many points is of Class $\mathscr A$. Our main result is that a manifold of Class $\mathscr A$ blown up along an arbitrary algebraic submanifold (not ne…

A vanishing theorem for the canonical blow-ups of Grassmann manifolds

Let $\mathcal T_{s,p,n}$ be the canonical blow-up of the Grassmann manifold $G(p,n)$ constructed by blowing up the Plücker coordinate subspaces associated with the parameter $s$. We prove that the higher cohomology groups of the tangent bundle of $\mathcal T_{s,p,n}$ vanish. As an application, $\mathcal T_{s,p,n}$ is locally rigid in the sense of Kodaira-Spencer.

Invertible dynamics on blow-ups of P^k

We discuss automorphisms and pseudo-automorphisms on blowups of complex projective space with an eye to finding ones with interesting dynamical behavior.

A formula for the Chern classes of symplectic blow-ups

It is shown that the formula for the Chern classes (in the Chow ring) of blow-ups of algebraic varieties, due to Porteous and Lascu-Scott, also holds (in the cohomology ring) for blow-ups of symplectic and complex manifolds. This was used by the second-named author in her solution of the geography problem for 8-dimensional symplectic manifolds. The proof equally applies to real blow-ups of arbitrary manifolds and yields the corresponding blow-up formula for the Stiefel-Whitney classes. In the course of the argument the topological analogue of Grothendieck's `formule clef' in intersection theor…

Blow-ups of locally conformally Kahler manifolds

A locally conformally Kahler (LCK) manifold is a manifold which is covered by a Kahler manifold, with the deck transform group acting by homotheties. We show that the blow-up of a compact LCK manifold along a complex submanifold admits an LCK structure if and only if this submanifold is globally conformally Kahler. We also prove that a twistor space (of a compact 4-manifold, a quaternion-Kahler manifold or a Riemannian m anifold) cannot admit an LCK metric, unless it is Kahler.
