We investigate instantons on manifolds with Killing spinors and their cones. Examples of manifolds with Killing spinors include nearly Kaehler 6-manifolds, nearly parallel G_2-manifolds in dimension 7, Sasaki-Einstein manifolds, and…

We derive a local ansatz for generalized K\"ahler surfaces with nondegenerate Poisson structure and a biholomorphic $S^1$ action which generalizes the classic Gibbons-Hawking ansatz for invariant hyperK\"ahler manifolds, and allows for the…

Let $M$ be a simple holomorphically symplectic manifold, that is, a simply connected holomorphically symplectic manifold of Kahler type with $h^{2,0}=1$. We prove that the group of holomorphic automorphisms of $M$ acts on the set of faces…

We organize the quantum hyperbolic invariants (QHI) of $3$-manifolds into sequences of rational functions indexed by the odd integers $N\geq 3$ and defined on moduli spaces of geometric structures refining the character varieties. In the…

We study complex Lagrangian submanifolds of a compact hyper-K\"ahler manifold and prove two results: (a) that an involution of a hyper-K\"ahler manifold which is antiholomorphic with respect to one complex structure and which acts…

Explicit answer is given for the HOMFLY polynomial of the figure eight knot $4_1$ in arbitrary symmetric representation R=[p]. It generalizes the old answers for p=1 and 2 and the recently derived results for p=3,4, which are fully…

Two results regarding K\"ahler supermanifolds with potential $K=A+C\theta\bar\theta$ are shown. First, if the supermanifold is K\"ahler-Einstein, then its base (the supermanifold of one lower fermionic dimension and with K\"ahler potential…

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…

The pseudo-Riemannian manifold $M=(M^{4n},g), n \geq 2$ is para-quaternionic K\" ahler if $hol(M) \subset sp(n, \RR) \oplus sp(1, \RR).$ If $hol(M) \subset sp(n, \RR),$ than the manifold $M$ is called para-hyperK\" ahler. The other possible…

The goal of this work is give a precise numerical description of the K\"ahler cone of a compact K\"ahler manifold. Our main result states that the K\"ahler cone depends only on the intersection form of the cohomology ring, the Hodge…

We call a manifold $k$-orientable if the $i^{th}$ Stiefel-Whitney class vanishes for all $i< 2^k$ ($k\geq 0$), generalising the notions of orientable (1-orientable) and spin (2-orientable). In \cite{Hoekzema2017} it was shown that…

We study various constraints on the Beauville quadratic form and the Huybrechts-Riemann-Roch polynomial for hyper-K\"ahler manifolds, mostly in dimension 6 and in the presence of an isotropic class. In an appendix, Chen Jiang proves that in…

Let $(M, \omega)$ be a 6-dimensional closed symplectic manifold with a symplectic $S^1$-action with $M^{S^1} \neq \emptyset$ and $\dim M^{S^1} \leq 2$. Assume that $\omega$ is integral with a generalized moment map $\mu$. We first prove…

We consider compact K\"ahler manifolds acted on by a connected compact Lie group $K$ of isometries in Hamiltonian fashion. We prove that the squared moment map $\|\mu\|^2$ is constant if and only if the manifold is biholomorphically and…

A hypersymplectic structure on a 4-manifold is a triple $\omega_1, \omega_2, \omega_3$ of 2-forms for which every non-trivial linear combination $a^1\omega_1 + a^2 \omega_2 + a^3 \omega_3$ is a symplectic form. Donaldson has conjectured…

We study the effective action of the heterotic string compactified on particular half-flat manifolds which arise in the context of mirror symmetry with NS-NS flux. We explicitly derive the superpotential and Kahler potential at lowest order…

A construction is introduced for modifying hyperkaehler manifolds with tri-Hamiltonian circle action, that in favourable situations increases the second Betti number by one. This is based on the symplectic cut construction of Lerman. In 4…

We find all Heegaard diagrams with the property "alternating" or "weakly alternating" on a genus two orientable closed surface. Using these diagrams we give infinitely many genus two 3--manifolds, each admits an automorphism whose…

The problem of Kepler dynamics on a conformable Poisson manifold is addressed. The Hamiltonian function is defined and the related Hamiltonian vector field governing the dynamics is derived, which leads to a modified Newton second law.…

We propose an approach to the existence problem for locally conformally K\"ahler metrics on compact complex manifolds by introducing and studying a functional that is different according to whether the complex dimension of the manifold is…
