We show that many topological and geometrical properties of complex projective space can be understood just by looking at a suitably constructed picture. The idea is to view CP^n as a set of flat tori parametrized by the positive octant of…
We give an interpretation of the construction of torsors from preceding work (Bertram, Kinyon: Associative Geometries. I, J. Lie Theory 20) in terms of classical projective geometry. For the Desarguesian case, this leads to a reformulation…
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 prove an extension of M. Hata's theorem [4] for planar Markov Iterated Function Systems satisfying a strong version of the Open Set Condition. More precisely, if the attractor of such a system is connected, then it is locally connected.…
We present a version of relative locality based on the geometry of twistor space. This can also be thought of as a new kind of deformation of twistor theory based on the construction of a bundle of twistor spaces over momentum space.…
We exploit the Cartan-K\"ahler theory to prove the local existence of real analytic quaternionic contact structures for any prescribed values of the respective curvature functions and their covariant derivatives at a given point on a…
We construct an infinite sequence of projectively flat manifolds by using castling transformations of prehomogeneous vector spaces. We also give a classification of manifolds equipped with a flat projective structure obtained by a finite…
Let $X$ be a complex normed space. Based on the right norm derivative $\rho_{_{+}}$, we define a mapping $\rho_{_{\infty}}$ by \begin{equation*} \rho_{_{\infty}}(x,y) = \frac1\pi\int_0^{2\pi}e^{i\theta}\rho_{_{+}}(x,e^{i\theta}y)d\theta…
We characterize HKT structure in terms of nondegenrate complex Poisson bivector on hypercomplex manifold. We extend the characterization to the twistor space. After considering the flat case in detail, we show that the twistor space of…
Given a complex structure, we investigate diverging sequences of projective structures on the fixed complex structure in terms of Thurston's parametrization. In particular, we will give a geometric proof to the theorem by Kapovich stating…
We prove a combinatorial version of Thom's Isotopy Lemma for projection maps applied to any complex or real toric variety. Our results are constructive and give rise to a method for associating the Whitney strata of the projection to the…
Let $E$ be the Whitney sum of complex line bundles over a topological space $X$. Then, the projectivization $P(E)$ of $E$ is called a \emph{projective bundle} over $X$. If $X$ is a non-singular complete toric variety, so is $P(E)$. In this…
We discuss the geometry of the c-map from projective special K\"ahler to quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds using the twist construction to provide a global approach to Hitchin's description. As found by Alexandrov et al. and Alekseevsky et…
Let X be a complex projective variety of dimension n with only isolated normal singularities. In this paper we prove, using mixed Hodge theory, that if the link of each singular point of X is (n-2)-connected, then X is a formal topological…
We extend the discussion of projective group representations in quaternionic Hilbert space which was given in our recent book. The associativity condition for quaternionic projective representations is formulated in terms of unitary…
Motivated by some results in classical differential geometry, we give a constructive procedure for building up a connection over a (twisted) tensor product of two algebras, starting from connections defined on the factors. The curvature for…
We consider manifolds equipped with a foliation $\cal F$ of codimension $4q$, and an almost quaternionic structure $Q$ on the transversal bundle of ${\cal F}$. After discussing conditions of projectability and integrability of $Q$, we study…
Modelled on a real hypersurface in a quaternionic manifold, we introduce a quaternionic analogue of CR structure, called quaternionic CR structure. We define the strong pseudoconvexity of this structure as well as the notion of quaternionic…
Motivated by the quaternionic geometry corresponding to the homogeneous complex manifolds endowed with (holomorphically) embedded spheres, we introduce and initiate the study of the `quaternionic-like manifolds'. These contain, as…
Mott noted a one-to-one correspondence between saturated multiplicatively closed subsets of a domain D and directed convex subgroups of the group of divisibility D. With this, we construct a functor between inclusions into saturated…
