The concept of a selfdual connection on a fourdimensional Riemannian manifold is generalized to the 4ndimensional case of any quaternionic Khler manifold. The generalized selfdual connections are minima of a modified YangMills functional. It is shown that our definitions give a correct framework for a mapping theory of quaternionic Khler manifolds. The mapping theory is closely related to the construction of YangMills fields on such manifolds. Some monopolelike equations are discussed.

We study singular real analytic Levi-flat subsets invariant by singular holomorphic foliations in complex projective spaces. We give sufficient conditions for a real analytic Levi-flat subset to be the pull-back of a semianalytic Levi-flat hypersurface in a complex projective surface under a rational map or to be the pull-back of a real algebraic curve under a meromorphic function. In particular, we give an application to the case of a singular real analytic Levi-flat hypersurface. Our results improve previous ones due to Lebl and Bretas–Fernández-Pérez–Mol.

Let f be a holomorphic automorphism of a compact Kähler manifold. Assume that f admits a unique maximal dynamic degree d_p with only one eigenvalue of maximal modulus. Let μ be its equilibrium measure. In this paper, we prove that μ is exponentially mixing for all d.s.h. test functions.

We address the question “when the local image of a map is well defined” and answer it in case of holomorphic map germs with target (C^2,0). We prove a criterion for holomorphic map germs (X,x)→(Y,y) to be locally open, solving a conjecture by Huckleberry in all dimensions.
