Geometric stability of the cotangent bundle and the universal cover of a projective manifold

Frédéric Campana, Thomas Peternell (2011)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

We first prove a strengthening of Miyaoka’s generic semi-positivity theorem: the quotients of the tensor powers of the cotangent bundle of a non-uniruled complex projective manifold X have a pseudo-effective (instead of generically nef) determinant. A first consequence is that X is of general type if its cotangent bundle contains a subsheaf with ‘big’ determinant. Among other applications, we deduce that if the universal cover of X is not covered by compact positive-dimensional analytic subsets,...

Lagrangian fibrations on generalized Kummer varieties

Martin G. Gulbrandsen (2007)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

We investigate the existence of Lagrangian fibrations on the generalized Kummer varieties of Beauville. For a principally polarized abelian surface A of Picard number one we find the following: The Kummer variety K n A is birationally equivalent to another irreducible symplectic variety admitting a Lagrangian fibration, if and only if n is a perfect square. And this is the case if and only if K n A carries a divisor with vanishing Beauville-Bogomolov square.
