We prove that a compact Vaisman manifold $(M, J)$ cannot admit some type of special Hermitian metrics, such as special $k$-Gauduchon metrics, $p$-K\"ahler forms, Hermitian-symplectic or strongly Gauduchon metrics compatible to the same…

Generalized complex geometry, as developed by Hitchin, contains complex and symplectic geometry as its extremal special cases. In this thesis, we explore novel phenomena exhibited by this geometry, such as the natural action of a B-field.…

A Riemannian metric on a manifold M induces a family of Riemannian metrics on the loop space LM depending on a Sobolev space parameter s. We compute the connection forms of these metrics and the higher symbols of their curvature forms,…

The twistor construction for Riemannian manifolds is extended to the case of manifolds endowed with generalized metrics (in the sense of generalized geometry \`a la Hitchin). The generalized twistor space associated to such a manifold is…

In these notes we generalize the notion of a (pseudo) metric measuring the distance of two points, to a (pseudo) n-metric which assigns a value to a tuple of n points. We present two principles of constructing pseudo n-metrics. The first…

The class of the hypercomplex pseudo-Hermitian manifolds is considered. The flatness of the considered manifolds with the 3 parallel complex structures is proved. Conformal transformations of the metrics are introduced. The conformal…

A Hermitian metric on a complex manifold of complex dimension $n$ is called {\em astheno-K\"ahler} if its fundamental $2$-form $F$ satisfies the condition $\partial \overline \partial F^{n - 2} =0$. If $n =3$, then the metric is {\em strong…

We describe a rigidity phenomenon exhibited by the second Chern Ricci curvature of a Hermitian metric on a compact complex manifold. This yields a characterisation of second Chern Ricci-flat Hermitian metrics on several types of manifolds…

We introduce a new general class of metric f-manifolds which we call (nearly) trans-S-manifolds and includes S- manifolds, C-manifolds, s-th Sasakian manifolds and generalized Kenmotsu manifold studied previously. We prove their main…

In a paper by Angella, Otal, Ugarte, and Villacampa, the authors conjectured that on a compact Hermitian manifold, if a Gauduchon connection other than Chern or Strominger is K\"ahler-like, then the Hermitian metric must be K\"ahler. They…

We introduce Gaussian-type measures on the manifold of all metrics with a fixed volume form on a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $\geq 3$. For this random model we compute the characteristic function for the $L^2$ (Ebin) distance…

The purpose of this note is to study the complex structures orthogonal to a given Riemannian metric. For another paper on this topic, we highly recommend the work of Salamon. His work describes in great detail the role that curvature plays…

A Hermitian metric on a complex manifold is called strong K\"ahler with torsion (SKT) if its fundamental 2-form $\omega$ is $\partial \bar \partial$-closed. We review some properties of strong KT metrics also in relation with symplectic…

We study the Anomaly flow on $2$-step nilmanifolds with respect to any Hermitian connection in the Gauduchon line. In the case of flat holomorphic bundle, the general solution to the Anomaly flow is given for any initial invariant Hermitian…
