We extend the twistor methods developed in our earlier work on linear deformations of hyperkahler manifolds [arXiv:0806.4620] to the case of quaternionic-Kahler manifolds. Via Swann's construction, deformations of a 4d-dimensional…

In this paper we study the para-hyperK\"ahler geometry of the deformation space of MGHC anti-de Sitter structures on $\Sigma\times\mathbb R$, for $\Sigma$ a closed oriented surface. We show that a neutral pseudo-Riemannian metric and three…

In this paper we generalize special geometry to arbitrary signatures in target space. We formulate the definitions in a precise mathematical setting and give a translation to the coordinate formalism used in physics. For the projective…

We investigate degenerate special-Hermitian metrics on compact complex manifolds, in particular, degenerate K\"ahler and locally conformally K\"ahler metrics on special classes of non-K\"ahler manifolds.

Motivated by the geometry of Levi degenerate CR hypersurfaces, we define a pre-K\"ahler structure on a complex manifold as a pre-symplectic structure compatible with the almost complex structure, i.e. a closed (1,1)-form. Extending Freeman…

We construct a noncommutative K\"ahler manifold based on a non-linear perturbations of Moyal integrable deformations of $D=4$ self-dual gravity. The deformed K\"ahler manifold preserves all the properties of the commutative one, and we…

In this article we investigate deformations of a scalar-flat K\"ahler metric on the total space of complex line bundles over CP^1 constructed by C. LeBrun. In particular, we find that the metric is included in a one-dimensional family of…

We prove that every compact K\"ahler threefold has arbitrarily small deformations to some projective manifolds, thereby solving the Kodaira problem in dimension 3.

We study infinitesimal deformations of autodual and hyper-holomorphic connections on complex vector bundles on hyper-K\"ahler manifolds of arbitrary dimension. In particular, we describe the DG Lie algebra controlling this deformation…

Kirillov has described a McKay correspondence for finite subgroups of PSL_{2}(C) that associates to each `height' function an affine Dynkin quiver together with a derived equivalence between equivariant sheaves on the projective line P^1…

Let X be a smooth affine algebraic variety over a field K of characteristic 0, and let R be a complete parameter K-algebra (e.g. R = K[[h]]). We consider associative (resp. Poisson) R-deformations of the structure sheaf O_X. The set of…

In this paper, we study relative deformations of maps into a family of K\"ahler manifolds whose images are divisors. We show that if the map satisfies a condition called semiregularity, then it allows relative deformations if and only if…

We are concerned in this article with a classical question in spectral geometry dating back to McKean-Singer, Patodi and Tanno: whether or not the constancy of holomorphic sectional curvature of a complex $n$-dimensional compact K\"ahler…

Given a quaternionic manifold $M$ with a certain $\mathrm{U}(1)$-symmetry, we construct a hypercomplex manifold $M'$ of the same dimension. This construction generalizes the quaternionic K\"ahler/hyper-K\"ahler-correspondence. As an example…

Nearly K\"ahler manifolds are the Riemannian 6-manifolds admitting real Killing spinors. Equivalently, the Riemannian cone over a nearly K\"ahler manifold has holonomy contained in G2. In this paper we study the deformation theory of nearly…

Q-map spaces form an important class of quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds of negative scalar curvature. Their one-loop deformations are always inhomogeneous and have been used to construct cohomogeneity one quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds as…

Let $F: T^{1,0}M\rightarrow[0,+\infty)$ be a strongly convex complex Finsler metric on a complex manifold $M$ and $\pmb{J}$ the canonical complex structure on the complex manifold $T^{1,0}M$. We give a geometric characterization of strongly…

We prove compactification theorems for some complete K\"ahler manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. Among other things, we prove that a complete noncompact K\"ahler Ricci flat manifold with maximal volume growth and quadratic…

We prove the existence and uniqueness of the solutions of some very general type of degenerate complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations. This type of equations is precisely what is needed in order to construct K\"ahler-Einstein metrics over…

We study K\"ahler manifolds that are (weak) relatives, that is, K\"ahler manifolds which share a (locally isometric) submanifold. In particular, we prove that if two K\"ahler manifolds are weak relatives and one of them is projective, then…
