$k$-symplectic manifolds are a convenient framework to study classical field theories and they are a generalization of polarized symplectic manifolds. This paper focus on the existence and the properties of left invariant $k$-symplectic…

We define naturally Hermite-Lorentz metrics on almost-complex manifolds as special case of pseudo-Riemannian metrics compatible with the almost complex structure. We study their isometry groups.

Strong K\"ahler with Torsion is the target space geometry of $(2,1)$ and $(2,0)$ supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models. We discuss how it can be represented in terms of Generalised Complex Geometry in analogy to the Gualtieri map from the…

We use tools from generalized complex geometry to develop the theory of SKT (a.k.a. pluriclosed Hermitian) manifolds and more generally manifolds with special holonomy with respect to a metric connection with closed skew-symmetric torsion.…

On a compact complex manifold we study the behaviour of strong K\"ahler with torsion (strong KT) structures under small deformations of the complex structure and the problem of extension of a strong KT metric. In this context we obtain the…

The subject of investigations are the almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian and anti-Hermitian (Norden) metrics. A linear connection D is introduced such that the structure of these manifolds is parallel with respect to D and its…

There are five six-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups G, which do not admit neither symplectic, nor complex structures and, therefore, can be neither almost pseudo-Kahler, nor almost Hermitian. In this work, these Lie groups are being…

We discuss a technique to construct Ricci-flat hermitian metrics on complements of (some) anticanonical divisors of almost homogeneous manifolds and discuss when this metric is complete and K\"ahler. This construction has a strong interplay…

Given a semi-Riemannian $4$-manifold $(M,g)$ with two distinguished vector fields satisfying properties determined by their shear, twist and various Lie bracket relations, a family of K\"ahler metrics $g_K$ is constructed, defined on an…

It has been conjectured by Fino and Vezzoni that a compact complex manifold admitting both a compatible SKT and a compatible balanced metric also admits a compatible K\"ahler metric. Using the shear construction and classification results…

We prove that locally conformally K\"ahler metrics on certain compact complex surfaces with odd first Betti number can be deformed to new examples of bi-Hermitian metrics.

We give a characterization of almost abelian Lie groups carrying left invariant hypercomplex structures and we show that the corresponding Obata connection is always flat. We determine when such Lie groups admit HKT metrics and study the…

LVMB manifolds are a class of non-K\"ahler compact complex manifolds with a remarkably rich geometry: in many cases they admit a holomorphic bundle structure over a compact toric manifold. In fact, such a bundle is determined by an…

A 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold M, equipped with an additional tensor structure S, whose fourth power is minus identity, is considered. The structure S has a skew-circulant matrix with respect to some basis of the tangent space at a…

We introduce a class of Hermitian metrics, that we call pluriclosed star split, generalising both the astheno-K\"ahler metrics of Jost and Yau and the $(n-2)$-Gauduchon metrics of Fu-Wang-Wu on complex manifolds. They have links with…

In this paper we study sectional curvature of invariant hyper-Hermitian metrics on simply connected 4-dimensional real Lie groups admitting invariant hypercomplex structure. We give the Levi-Civita connections and explicit formulas for…

We derive necessary conditions for a complex projective structure on a complex surface to arise via the Levi-Civita connection of a (pseudo-)K\"ahler metric. Furthermore we show that the (pseudo-)K\"ahler metrics defined on some domain in…

Let $g$ be a hyper-Hermitian metric on a simply connected hypercomplex four-manifold $M$. We show that when the isometry group $I(M,g)$ contains a subgroup acting simply transitively on $M$ by hypercomplex isometries then the metric $g$ is…

We explore complex Riemannian geometry and Hermitian metrics on complex algebraic varieties and analytic spaces, respectively. In particular, we introduce Hermitian metrics on holomorphic Lie algebroids and examine the associated…

An $F$-manifold is complex manifold with a multiplication on the holomorphic tangent bundle with a certain integrability condition. Important examples are Frobenius manifolds and especially base spaces of universal unfoldings of isolated…
