First we show how one can deduce hyperbolicity for generic complete intersection of high multidegree and high codimension from the known results on hypersurfaces. Then we prove a existence theorem for jet differentials that generalizes a theorem of S. Diverio. Finally, motivated by a conjecture of O. Debarre, we focus on the positivity of the cotangent bundle of complete intersections, and prove some results towards this conjecture; among other things, we prove that a generic complete intersection surface of high multidegree in a projective space of dimension at least four has ample cotangent bundle
