On a complex manifold $(M,J)$, we interpret complex symplectic and pseudo-K\"ahler structures as symplectic forms with respect to which $J$ is, respectively, symmetric and skew-symmetric. We classify complex symplectic structures on…

Let $J$ be an almost complex structure on a 4-dimensional and unimodular Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. We show that there exists a symplectic form taming $J$ if and only if there is a symplectic form compatible with $J$. We also introduce…

We apply the quaternionic Jordan form to classify the hypercomplex nilpotent almost abelian Lie algebras in all dimensions and to carry out the complete classification of 12-dimensional hypercomplex almost abelian Lie algebras. Moreover, we…

We investigate Lie algebras endowed with a complex symplectic structure and develop a method, called \emph{complex symplectic oxidation}, to construct certain complex symplectic Lie algebras of dimension $4n+4$ from those of dimension $4n$.…

We construct the well-known decomposition of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{e}_8$ into representations of $\mathfrak{e}_6\oplus\mathfrak{su}(3)$ using explicit matrix representations over pairs of division algebras. The minimal representation…

This paper develops a framework for the Hamiltonian quantization of complex Chern-Simons theory with gauge group $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ at an even level $k\in\mathbb{Z}_+$. Our approach follows the procedure of combinatorial…

In a recent work, Kai Tang conjectured that any compact Hermitian manifold with non-zero constant mixed curvature must be K\"ahler. He confirmed the conjecture in complex dimension $2$ and for Chern K\"ahler-like manifolds in general…

This paper is concerned with the geometry of principal orbits in quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds $M$ of cohomogeneity one. We focus on the complete cohomogeneity one examples obtained from the non-compact quaternionic K\"ahler symmetric…

We discuss the geometry of the c-map from projective special K\"ahler to quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds using the twist construction to provide a global approach to Hitchin's description. As found by Alexandrov et al. and Alekseevsky et…

Any pseudo-Hermitian or para-Hermitian manifold of dimension 4 admits a unique Kaehler-Weyl structure; this structure is locally conformally Kaehler if and only if the alternating Ricci tensor vanishes. The alternating Ricci tensor takes…

Due to its rich structure and close connection with gauge theory, hyperk\"ahler manifolds have attracted increasing interest. Using infinite dimensional hyperk\"ahler reduction, Kronheimer proved that certain adjoint orbits of complexified…

Motivated by Kohno's result on the holonomy Lie algebra of a hyperplane arrangement, we define the holonomy Lie algebra of a finite geometric lattice in a combinatorial way. For a solvable pair of lattices, we show that the holonomy Lie…

We discuss a peculiar interplay between the representation theory of the holonomy group of a Riemannian manifold, the Weitzenboeck formula for the Hodge-Laplace operator on forms and the Lichnerowicz formula for twisted Dirac operators. For…

Any quaternionic K\"ahler manifold $(\bar N,g_{\bar N},\mathcal Q)$ equipped with a Killing vector field $X$ with nowhere vanishing quaternionic moment map carries an integrable almost complex structure $J_1$ that is a section of the…

A nilmanifold is a quotient of a nilpotent group $G$ by a co-compact discrete subgroup. A complex nilmanifold is one which is equipped with a $G$-invariant complex structure. We prove that a complex nilmanifold has trivial canonical bundle.…

We construct the hyperkahler cones corresponding to the Quaternion-Kahler orthogonal Wolf spaces SO(n+4)/(SO(n)xSO(4)) and their non-compact versions, which appear in hypermultiplet couplings to N=2 supergravity. The geometry is completely…

We introduce the notion of tame $\rho$-quaternionic manifold that permits the construction of a finite family of $\rho$-connections, significant for the geometry involved. This provides, for example, the following: (1) a new simple global…

We consider a general 4n-dimensional quaternionic Kahler geometry with a free action of the torus T^(n+1). The toric action lifts onto the Swann bundle of the quaternionic Kahler space to a tri-holomorphic action that commutes with the…

Given a K\"ahler manifold $M$ endowed with a Hamiltonian Killing vector field $Z$, we construct a conical K\"ahler manifold $\hat{M}$ such that $M$ is recovered as a K\"ahler quotient of $\hat{M}$. Similarly, given a hyper-K\"ahler manifold…

We construct explicitly classical and quantum supercharges satisfying the standard N = 4 supersymmetry algebra in the supersymmetric sigma models describing the motion over HKT (hyper-Kaehler with torsion) manifolds. One member of the…
