Geometric structures, the Gromov order, Kodaira dimensions and simplicial volume

Christoforos Neofytidis and Weiyi Zhang

Vol. 315 (2021), No. 1, 209–233
Abstract

We introduce an axiomatic definition for the Kodaira dimension and classify Thurston geometries in dimensions 5 in terms of this Kodaira dimension. We show that the Kodaira dimension is monotone with respect to the partial order defined by maps of nonzero degree between 5-manifolds. We study the compatibility of our definition with traditional notions of Kodaira dimension, especially the highest possible Kodaira dimension. To this end, we establish a connection between the simplicial volume and the holomorphic Kodaira dimension, which, in particular, implies that any smooth Kähler 3-fold with nonvanishing simplicial volume has top holomorphic Kodaira dimension.
