Calabi-Yau Hyperbolicity
Abstract
The goal of this paper is to introduce a new notion of hyperbolicity for compact complex manifolds with trivial canonical bundle, called \textit{Calabi--Yau hyperbolicity}. We investigate its fundamental properties and establish a characterization in terms of the fundamental group. In particular, we show that no compact Kähler Calabi--Yau manifold is Calabi--Yau hyperbolic, highlighting the genuinely non-Kähler nature of this notion. We also investigate different techniques for constructing examples of such manifolds. Finally, we examine the relationship between Calabi--Yau hyperbolicity and Kobayashi hyperbolicity in the examples considered, highlighting obstructions to the latter in the Calabi--Yau setting.
