fibers of birational contraction for complex manifolds - are they Moishezon?

Let $X$ be a smooth complex manifold and $\phi:\; X \mapsto Y$ a proper holomorphic map which is birational ("birational contraction"), and $Z= \phi^{-1}(y)$ its fiber in a point $y$. The variety $Y$ …

Does a resolution of a rational singularity have rationally connected fibers?

A rational singularity is a singularity of a complex variety $X$ such that for any resolution $\pi:\; \tilde X\rightarrow X$ the higher direct images $R^i\pi_*(O_{\tilde X})$ vanish for all $i>0$. Sup …

Calabi–Yau theorem and complex Monge–Ampère equation for transversally Kähler manifolds

Let $M$ be a compact smooth manifold, and $F\subset TM$ a smooth foliation. It is called transversally Kähler if the normal bundle $TM/F$ is equipped with a Hermitian structure (that is, a complex str …

Gorenstein varieties: why the two definitions are equivalent?

There are two definitions of Gorenstein singularities in the literature. Using Grothendieck's (or Serre's) duality, one defines the "dualizing sheaf" an object $\hat K_M$ of derived category of cohere …
