The half-maximal supergravity theories in three dimensions, which have local $SO(8)\xz SO(n)$ and rigid SO(8,n) symmetries, are discussed in a superspace setting starting from the superconformal theory. The on-shell theory is obtained by…

We give an overview of some recent interactions between the geometry of K3 surfaces and their Ricci-flat Kahler metrics and the dynamical study of K3 automorphisms with positive entropy.

We give a method to obtain new 7-dimensional Lie algebras endowed with closed and coclosed G2-structures starting from 6-dimensional Lie algebras with symplectic half- at SU(3)-structures and half- at SU(3)- structures, respectively.…

We investigate left-invariant ${\rm G}_2^*$-structures on 7-dimensional Lie groups, focusing on those whose holonomy algebras are indecomposable and of type III, the latter meaning that the socle of the holonomy representation is maximal.…

We construct in an explicit algebraic form a family of complete noncompact Ricci-flat metrics which generalize Calabi metrics in real dimension $4(n+1)$ and with holonomy $SU(2(n+1))$.

We prove the existence of a one-parameter family of nearly parallel $G_2$-structures on the manifold $S^3\times \mathbb R^4$, which are mutually non isomorphic and invariant under the cohomogeneity one action of the group $SU(2)^3$. This…

We define a system of ODE that gives Einstein 4-dimensional metrics. We found new Ricci-flat incomplete metric of cohomogeneity 1 in explicit formulas and study its characteristics.

A holomorphic torsion invariant of K3 surfaces with involution was introduced by the second-named author. In this paper, we completely determine its structure as an automorphic function on the moduli space of such K3 surfaces. On every…

We classify $7$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds carrying a metric connection with parallel skew-symmetric torsion whose holonomy is contained in $\mathrm{G}_2$, up to naturally reductive homogeneous spaces and nearly parallel…

We approach the study of totally real immersions of smooth manifolds into holomorphic Riemannian space forms of constant sectional curvature -1. We introduce a notion of first and second fundamental form, we prove that they satisfy a…

The classification problem for K3-surfaces equipped with finite groups $H$ of symplectic symmetry centralized by an antisymplectic involution is considered. An approach via equivariant Mori-reduction is employed. This method, which has…

The pseudo-SU(3) model has been extensively used to study normal parity bands in even-even and odd-mass heavy deformed nuclei. The use of a realistic Hamiltonian that mixes many SU(3) irreps has allowed for a successful description of…

A self-dual harmonic 2-form on a 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold is symplectic where it does not vanish. Furthermore, away from the form's zero set, the metric with the 2-form give a compatible almost complex structure and thus…

We generate new 11-dimensional supergravity solutions from deformations based on U(1)^3 symmetries. The initial geometries are of the form AdS_4 x Y_7, where Y_7 is a 7-dimensional Sasaki-Einstein space. We consider a general family of…

Based on some analogies with the Hodge theory of isolated hypersurface singularities, we define Hodge-type numerical invariants (called H-numbers) of any, not necessarily algebraic, link in $S^3$. They contain the same information as the…

We study geometric properties of compact stable minimal surfaces with boundary in homogeneous 3-manifolds $X$ that can be expressed as a semidirect product of $\mathbb{R}^2$ with $\mathbb{R}$ endowed with a left invariant metric. For any…

Computations based on explicit 4-periodic resolutions are given for the cohomology of the finite groups G known to act freely on S^3, as well as the cohomology rings of the associated 3-manifolds (spherical space forms) M = S^3/G. Chain…

Let X be a projective complex 3-fold, quasihomogeneous with respect to an action of a linear algebraic group. We show that X is a compactification of SL_2/G, G a discrete subgroup, or that X can be equivariantly transformed into the 3-dim.…

The main focus of the paper is the investigation of moduli space of left invariant pseudoRiemannian metrics on the cotangent bundle of Heisenberg group. Consideration of orbits of the automorphism group naturally acting on the space of the…
