Using a new manner to rescale fields in $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauged supergravity with n$_{V}$ vector multiplets and n$_{H}$ hypermultiplets, we develop the explicit derivation of the rigid limit of quaternionic isometry Ward identities agreeing…
The problem of finding new metrics of interest, in the context of SUGRA, is reduced to two stages: first, solving a generalized BPS sigma model with full quaternionic structure proposed by the authors and, second, constructing the…
The present study explores the behavior of quaternionic four-space algebra for subluminal and superluminal spaces. We formulate the generalized Lorentz transformations for quaternionic subluminal, superluminal, and their combined Minkowski…
The paper develops the fundamentals of quaternionic holomorphic curve theory. The holomorphic functions in this theory are conformal maps from a Riemann surface into the 4-sphere, i.e., the quaternionic projective line. Basic results such…
Using techniques from supergravity and dimensional reduction, we study the full isometry algebra of K\"ahler and quaternionic manifolds with special geometry. These two varieties are related by the so-called c-map, which can be understood…
Given a special Kahler manifold M, we give a new, direct proof of the relationship between the quaternionic structure on its cotangent bundle and the variation of Hodge structures on the complexification of TM.
A set of canonical parahermitian connections on an almost paraHermitian manifold is defined. ParaHermitian version of the Apostolov-Gauduchon generalization of the Goldberg-Sachs theorem in General Relativity is given. It is proved that the…
N = 2 supersymmetry in four space-time dimensions is intimately related to hyperkahler and quaternionic Kahler geometries. On one hand, the target spaces for rigid supersymmetric sigma-models are necessarily hyperkahler manifolds. On the…
We present an extension of our construction (hep-th/0606199) exhibiting $SO(4)\times SO(2)$ symmetry. We extend the previously presented ansatz by introducing a U(1) gauge field. The presence of the gauge field allows for more general…
We give a procedure for constructing an $8n$-dimensional HKT Lie algebra starting from a $4n$-dimensional one by using a quaternionic representation of the latter. The strong (respectively, weak, hyper-K\"ahler, balanced) condition is…
We construct the general action for Abelian vector multiplets in rigid 4-dimensional Euclidean (instead of Minkowskian) N=2 supersymmetry, i.e., over space-times with a positive definite instead of a Lorentzian metric. The target manifolds…
We extend our previous results on the relation between quaternion-Kahler manifolds and hyperkahler cones and we describe how isometries, moment maps and scalar potentials descend from the cone to the quaternion-Kahler space. As an example…
We shall give an axiomatic construction of Wess-Zumino-Witten actions valued in (G=SU(N)), (N\geq 3). It is realized as a functor ({WZ}) from the category of conformally flat four-dimensional manifolds to the category of line bundles with…
Positive Quaternion Kaehler Manifolds are Riemannian manifolds with holonomy contained in Sp(n)Sp(1) and with positive scalar curvature. Conjecturally, they are symmetric spaces. We prove this conjecture in dimension 20 under additional…
We show that the hyperkahler geometry of $T^*\mathbb{CP}^{n-1}$ can be described algebraically by the affine scheme of rank-1 projections, and that this description simultaneously yields explicit $SU(n)$-equivariant isometric embeddings \[…
A non-linear generalization of the Dirac operator in 4-dimensions, obtained by replacing the spinor representation with a hyperKahler manifold admitting certain symmetries, is considered. We show that the existence of a covariantly…
We have studied irreducible real (respectively, quaternionic) Lie algebroid connections and prove that the Gauge theoretic moduli space has Hausdorff Hilbert manifold structure. This work generalises some known results about simple…
We study the emergence of Heisenberg (Bianchi II) algebra in hyper-K\"ahler and quaternionic spaces. This is motivated by the r\^ole these spaces with this symmetry play in $\mathcal{N}=2$ hypermultiplet scalar manifolds. We show how to…
We present a local classification of conformally equivalent but oppositely oriented 4-dimensional Kaehler metrics which are toric with respect to a common 2-torus action. In the generic case, these "ambitoric" structures have an intriguing…
In the context of 4d effective gravity theories with 8 supersymmetries, we propose to unify, strenghten, and refine the several swampland conjectures into a single statement: the structural criterion, modelled on the structure theorem in…
