Strong Kaehler with torsion structures from almost contact manifolds

Abstract

For an almost contact metric manifold NN, we find conditions for which either the total space of an S1S^1-bundle over NN or the Riemannian cone over NN admits a strong K\"ahler with torsion (SKT) structure. In this way we construct new 6-dimensional SKT manifolds. Moreover, we study the geometric structure induced on a hypersurface of an SKT manifold, and use such structures to construct new SKT manifolds via appropriate evolution equations. Hyper-K\"ahler with torsion (HKT) structures on the total space of an S1S^1-bundle over manifolds with three almost contact structures are also studied.
