Abstract

Let XX be a compact quotient of the product of the real Heisenberg group H4m+1H_{4m+1} of dimension 4m+14m+1 and the 3-dimensional real Euclidean space \bR3\bR^3. A left invariant hypercomplex structure on H4m+1×\bR3H_{4m+1}\times \bR^3 descends onto the compact quotient XX. The space XX is a hyperholomorphic fibration of 4-tori over a 4m4m-torus. We calculate the parameter space and obstructions to deformations of this hypercomplex structure on XX. Using our calculations we show that all small deformations generate invariant hypercomplex structures on XX but not all of them arise from deformations of the lattice. This is in contrast to the deformations on the 4m4m-torus.
