Abstract

Explicit representations of complex structures on closed manifolds are valuable, but relatively rare in the literature. Using isoparametric theory, we construct complex structures on isoparametric hypersurfaces with g=4,m=1g=4, m=1 in the unit sphere, as well as on focal submanifolds M+M_+ of OT-FKM type with g=4g=4, m=2m=2 and m=4m=4 in the definite case. Furthermore, we investigate the existence and non-existence of invariant (almost) complex structures on homogeneous isoparametric hypersurfaces with g=4g=4, providing a complete classification of those that admit such structures. Finally, we discuss the geometric properties of the complex structures arising from isoparametric theory.
