We prove a correspondence, for Riemannian manifolds with self-dual Weyl tensor, between twistor functions and solutions to the Teukolsky equations for any conformal and spin weights. In particular, we give a contour integral formula for…

Using the twistor correspondence, we give a classification of toric anti-self-dual Einstein metrics: each such metric is essentially determined by an odd holomorphic function. This explains how the Einstein metrics fit into the…

In this paper we study generalized classes of volume preserving multidimensional integrable systems via Nambu-Poisson mechanics. These integrable systems belong to the same class of dispersionless KP type equation. Hence they bear a close…

The main result of this paper is that the space of conformally compact Einstein metrics on a given manifold is a smooth, infinite dimensional Banach manifold, provided it is non-empty, generalizing earlier work of Graham-Lee and Biquard. We…

Spaces with a Weyl-type connection and torsion of a special type induced by the structure of the differentiability conditions in the algebra of complex quaternions are considered. The consistency of these conditions implies the self-duality…

We recently introduced a class of ${\mathbb{Z}}_N$ graded discrete Lax pairs and studied the associated discrete integrable systems (lattice equations). In particular, we introduced a subclass, which we called "self-dual". In this paper we…

We prove that a closed oriented Einstein four-manifold is either anti-self-dual or (after passing to a double Riemann cover if necessary) K\"ahler-Einstein, provided that $\lambda_2 \geq -\frac{S}{12}$, where $\lambda_2$ is the middle…
