This is a sequel to our paper arXiv:1402.2546 to appear in the Journal of Geometric Analysis in which we concentrate on developing some of the topological properties of Sasaki-Einstein manifolds. In particular, we explicitly compute the…
In this paper, we show that a generalized Sasakian space form of dimension greater than three is either of constant sectional curvature; or a canal hypersurface in Euclidean or Minkowski spaces; or locally a certain type of twisted product…
We extend the notion of (branched) holomorphic Cartan geometry on a complex manifold to the context of Sasakian manifolds. Branched holomorphic Cartan geometries on Sasakian Calabi-Yau manifolds are investigated.
We give examples of compact symplectic manifolds with disconnected contact type boundary in dimension $4n$ for any $n\geq 1$. The example is given by a subset of the tangent bundle of a compact quotient of the complex hyperbolic space…
The aim of this paper is to study compact 5--manifolds which carry a positive Sasakian structure. Strong restrictions are derived for the integral homology groups. In some cases, all positive Sasakian structures are classified. A key step…
When a complex semisimple group $G$ acts holomorphically on a K\"ahler manifold $(X,\omega)$ such that a maximal compact subgroup $K\subset G$ preserves the symplectic form $\omega$, a basic result of symplectic geometry says that the…
We extend a result of Patodi for closed Riemannian manifolds to the context of closed contact manifolds by showing the condition that a manifold is an $\eta$-Einstein Sasakian manifold is spectrally determined. We also prove that the…
Take a compact Sasakian threefold $M$ and consider the associated irreducible $\text{SL}(r,{\mathbb C})$-character variety ${\mathcal R} := \text{Hom}(\pi_1(M, x_0), \text{SL}(r, {\mathbb C}))^{ir}/ \text{SL}(r, {\mathbb C})$ of $M$, where…
We point out a simple construction of an infinite class of Einstein near-horizon geometries in all odd dimensions greater than five. Cross-sections of the horizons are inhomogeneous Sasakian metrics (but not Einstein) on S^3xS^2 and more…
In this article we consider the concept of biharmonicity about the hypersurfaces in the Sasakian space form which is equipped with the Tanaka-Webster connection.
We consider biharmonic submanifolds in both generalized complex and Sasakian space forms. After giving the biharmonicity conditions for submanifolds in these spaces, we study different particular cases for which we obtain curvature…
Classification results are given for (i) compact quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds with a cohomogeneity-one action of a semi-simple group, (ii) certain complete hyperK\"ahler manifolds with a cohomogeneity-two action of a semi-simple group…
We investigate the global topology of 3-dimensional Hessian manifolds. We prove that any compact, orientable 3-dimensional Hessian manifold is either a Hantzsche-Wendt manifold or admits the structure of a K\"ahler mapping torus. We analyze…
The authors exhibit pairs of infinite-volume, hyperbolic three-manifolds that have the same scattering poles and conformally equivalent boundaries, but which are not isometric. The examples are constructed using Schottky groups and the…
In this paper paraSasakian manifolds with a constant paraholomorphic section curvature are considered.
In this paper, we prove that the harmonicity of a metric on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold is equivalent to the harmonicity of both its Sasaki (resp. horizontal and complete) lift metric on the tangent bundle and its Sasaki lift metric on the…
The Hard Lefschetz Property (HLP) has recently been formulated in the context of isometric flows without singularities on manifolds. In this category, two versions of the HLP (transverse and not) have been proven to be equivalent, thus…
Mixed 3-structures are odd-dimensional analogues of paraquaternionic structures. They appear naturally on lightlike hypersurfaces of almost paraquaternionic hermitian manifolds. We study invariant and anti-invariant submanifolds in a…
In this note we make several observations concerning symplectic cobordisms. Among other things we show that every contact 3-manifold has infinitely many concave symplectic fillings and that all overtwisted contact 3-manifolds are…
It is introduced a differentiable manifold with almost contact 3-structure which consists of an almost contact metric structure and two almost contact B-metric structures. The product of this manifold and a real line is an almost…
