I show that solutions of the SU(infinity) Toda field equation generating a fixed Einstein-Weyl space are governed by a linear equation on the Einstein-Weyl space. From this, obstructions to the existence of Toda solutions generating a given…

We find explicit examples of compact minitwistor spaces of genus one, whose Einstein-Weyl spaces have a connected component that is diffeomorphic to the de Sitter space. The induced Einstein-Weyl structure on it is Lorenzian, real-analytic,…

In a general and non metrical framework, we introduce the class of co-CR quaternionic manifolds, which contains the class of quaternionic manifolds, whilst in dimension three it particularizes to give the Einstein-Weyl spaces. We show that…
