In this thesis, we study cohomological properties of non-K\"ahler manifolds. In particular, we are concerned in investigating the cohomology of compact (almost-)complex manifolds, and of manifolds endowed with special structures, e.g.,…

Let M be a real Bott manifold with K\"{a}hler structure. Using Ishida characterization we give necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of the Spin-structure on M. In proof we use the technic developed in Popko, Szczepa\'{n}ski…

We study the integrability of a (almost) complex structure calibrated by a symplectic form. We find new sufficent conditions.

Exotic spinors arise in non-simply connected base manifolds due to the nonequivalent spinor structure. The dynamics of exotic spinors are endowed with an additional differential factor. In this work, we merge the exotic spinor scenario with…

In this article, we consider a complete, non-compact almost Hermitian manifold whose curvature is asymptotic to that of the complex hyperbolic plane. Under natural geometric conditions, we show that such a manifold arises as the interior of…

In this review, basic definitions of spin geometry are given and some of its applications to supersymmetry, supergravity and condensed matter physics are summarized. Clifford algebras and spinors are defined and the first-order differential…

We study the geometric structure of Lorentzian spin manifolds, which admit imaginary Killing spinors. The discussion is based on the cone construction and a normal form classification of skew-adjoint operators in signature $(2,n-2)$.…

We study spin structures on affine Kac-Moody symmetric spaces and obtain sufficient conditions for their existence.\ As a by product of this, we obtain a spin-c representation of certain Kac-Moody quadratic subgroups of type E.

We discuss conditions for the integrability of an almost complex structure defined on the total space of an induced Hopf S^3-bundle over a Sasakian manifold . As an application, we obtain an uncountable family of inequivalent complex…

We classify compact surfaces with torsion-free affine connections for which every geodesic is a simple closed curve. In the process, we obtain completely new proofs of all the major results concerning the Riemannian case. In contrast to…

We classify the germs of $\mathcal{C}^\infty$ CR manifolds that admit a smooth CR contraction. We show that such a CR manifold is embedded into $\CC^n$ as a real hypersurface defined by a polynomial defining function consisting of monomials…

We study conformal Killing forms on compact 6-dimensional nearly K\"ahler manifolds. Our main result concerns forms of degree 3. Here we give a classification showing that all conformal Killing 3-forms are linear combinations of $d \omega$…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of pin+, pin- and spin structures on Riemannian manifolds with holonomy group $Z_2^k$. For any n>3 (resp. n>5) we give examples of pairs of compact manifolds (resp. compact…

We study the space of closed anti-invariant forms on an almost complex manifold, possibly non compact. We construct families of (non integrable) almost complex structures on $\R^4$, such that the space of closed $J$-anti-invariant forms is…

Let $(\acute{N},g,\nabla )$\ be a $2n$-dimensional quasi-statistical manifold that admits a pseudo-Riemannian metric $g$ (or $h)$ and a linear connection $\nabla $ with torsion. This paper aims to study an almost Hermitian structure $(g,L)$…

We introduce the class of almost symmetric submanifolds of Euclidean space, a close relative of symmetric submanifolds and (contact) sub-Riemannian symmetric spaces. More specifically, we prove that every full irreducible almost symmetric…
