In complex general relativity, Lorentzian space-time is replaced by a four-complex-dimensional complex-Riemannian manifold, with holomorphic connection and holomorphic curvature tensor. A multisymplectic analysis shows that the Hamiltonian…
We construct the twistor space associated with an HKT manifold, that is, a hyper-K\"ahler manifold with torsion, a type of geometry that arises as the target space geometry in two-dimensional sigma models with (4,0) supersymmetry. We show…
Generalized complex geometry, as developed by Hitchin, contains complex and symplectic geometry as its extremal special cases. In this thesis, we explore novel phenomena exhibited by this geometry, such as the natural action of a B-field.…
Standard (Arnold-Liouville) integrable systems are intimately related to complex rotations. One can define a generalization of these, sharing many of their properties, where complex rotations are replaced by quaternionic ones. Actually this…

We introduce the notion of Hamiltonian spaces for Manin pairs over manifolds, using the so-called generalized Dirac structures. As an example, we describe Hamiltonian spaces of a quasi-Lie bialgebroid using this general framework. We also…
Relying upon the division-algebra classification of Clifford algebras and spinors, a classification of generalized supersymmetries (or, with a slight abuse of language,"generalized supertranslations") is provided. In each given space-time…
We recall the presentation of the generalized, complex structures by classical tensor fields, while noticing that one has a similar presentation and the same integrability conditions for generalized, paracomplex and subtangent structures.…
The functional space of biquaternions is considered on Minkovskiy space. The scalar-vector biquaternions representation is used which was offered by W. Hamilton for quaternions. With introduction of differential operator - a mutual complex…
We study the Penrose transform for the `quaternionic objects' whose twistor spaces are complex manifolds endowed with locally complete families of embedded Riemann spheres with positive normal bundles.
It has been shown recently by Kapustin and Tomasiello that the mathematical notion of Hamiltonian actions on twisted generalized K\"ahler manifolds is in perfect agreement with the physical notion of general $(2,2)$ gauged sigma models with…
An order four automorphism of a Lie algebra gives rise to an integrable system discussed by Terng. We show that solutions of this system may be identified with certain vertically harmonic twistor lifts of conformal maps of surfaces in a…
Let $X$ be a quasi-projective curve, compactified to $(Y,D)$ with $X=Y-D$. We construct a Deligne-Hitchin twistor space out of moduli spaces of framed $\lambda$-connections of rank $2$ over $Y$ with logarithmic singularities and…
We study the moduli space of quaternionic Kaehler structures on a compact manifold of dimension 4n (n>2) from a point of view of Riemannian geometry, not twistor theory. Then we obtain a rigidity theorem for quaternionic Kaehler structures…
It is shown that any irreducible analytic 1-flat $G$-structure as well as any analytic torsion-free affine connection with irreducibly acting holonomy group can, in principle, be contstructed by twistor methods.
The generalized hypercomplex structures defined within the framework of generalized geometry include hypercomplex and holomorphic symplectic structures as particular cases. They have a $S^2$-family of generalized complex structures, and in…

On base of differential biquaternions algebra and generalized functions theory the biquaternionic wave equation is considered under vector representation of its structural coefficient. Its generalized solutions are constructed, which…
We study generalized Kaehler manifolds for which the corresponding complex structures commute and classify completely the compact generalized Kaehler four-manifolds for which the induced complex structures yield opposite orientations.
