For $U(2)$-invariant 4-metrics, we show that the $B^t$-flat metrics are very different from the other canonical metrics (Bach-flat, Einstein, extremal K\"ahler, etc). We show every $U(2)$-invariant metric is conformal to two separate…

We construct a compact 6-dimensional solvmanifold endowed with a non-trivial invariant generalized K\"ahler structure and which does not admit any K\"ahler metric. This is in contrast with the case of nilmanifolds which cannot admit any…

We give a description of all $G$-invariant Ricci-flat K\"ahler metrics on the canonical complexification of any compact Riemannian symmetric space $G/K$ of arbitrary rank, by using some special local $(1,0)$ vector fields on $T(G/K)$. As…

In this paper we consider left-invariant pseudo-K\"{a}hler structures on six-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras. The explicit expressions of the canonical complex structures are calculated, and the curvature properties of the associated…

We generalize the concept of sub-Riemannian geometry to infinite-dimensional manifolds modeled on convenient vector spaces. On a sub-Riemannian manifold $M$, the metric is defined only on a sub-bundle $\calH$ of the tangent bundle $TM$,…

We give an algebraic criterion for the existence of projectively Hermitian-Yang-Mills metrics on a holomorphic vector bundle $E$ over some complete non-compact K\"ahler manifolds $(X,\omega)$, where $X$ is the complement of a divisor in a…

We prove the existence of complete cohomogeneity one triaxial K\"ahler-Einstein metrics in dimension four under an action of the Euclidean group $E(2)$. We also demonstrate local existence of Ricci flat K\"ahler metrics of a related type…

We study special Lagrangian submanifolds in the Calabi-Yau manifold $T^*S^n$ with the Stenzel metric, as well as calibrated submanifolds in the $\text{G}_2$-manifold $\Lambda^2_-(T^*X)$ $(X^4 = S^4, \mathbb{CP}^2)$ and the…

Noncommutative K\"ahler structures were recently introduced as an algebraic framework for studying noncommutative complex geometry on quantum homogeneous spaces. In this paper, we introduce the notion of a \emph{compact quantum homogeneous…

While the Lorenzian and Riemanian metrics for which all polynomial scalar curvature invariants vanish (the VSI property) are well-studied, less is known about the four-dimensional neutral signature metrics with the VSI property. Recently it…

In this paper, we study rotationally symmetric extremal K\"ahler metrics on $\mathbb C^n$ ($n\geq 2$) and $\mathbb C^2 \backslash\{0\}$. We present a classification of such metrics based on the zeros of the polynomial appearing in Calabi's…

We investigate the existence of strong K\"ahler with torsion metrics along deformations of the Iwasawa manifold and of the holomorphically parallelizable Nakamura manifold. We also show that the class of deformations of the holomorphically…

We study function theory and K\"ahler geometry on total spaces of vector bundles on an elliptic curve. For rank two vector bundles of degree zero, we show that any two total spaces are biholomorphic if and only if the corresponding vector…

Twistor CR manifolds, introduced by LeBrun, are Lorentzian (neutral) CR 5-manifolds defined as $\mathbb{P}^1$-bundles over 3-dimensional conformal manifolds. In this paper, we embed a real analytic twistor CR manifold into the twistor space…

We study topological gauge theories with N=(2,0) supersymmetry based on stable bundles on general Kahler 3-folds. In order to have a theory that is well defined and well behaved, we consider a model based on an extension of the usual…

Let $M$ be a Kaehler manifold, and consider the total space $T^*M$ of the cotangent bundle to $M$. We show that in the formal neighborhood of the zero section $M \subset T^*M$ the space $T^*M$ admits a canonical hyperkaehler structure,…

We begin by defining a type of K\"ahler metric near the zero section of a trivial holomorphic open disk bundle $N$ over a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ by incorporating flows generated by holomorphic vector fields on $X$. These metrics are…

In an earlier work, we investigated some consequences of the existence of a K\"ahler metric of negative holomorphic sectional curvature on a projective manifold. In the present work, we extend our results to the case of semi-negative (i.e.,…

We introduce the notion of a hamiltonian 2-form on a Kaehler manifold and obtain a complete local classification. This notion appears to play a pivotal role in several aspects of Kaehler geometry. In particular, on any Kaehler manifold with…

We discuss two-dimensional sigma models on moduli spaces of instantons on K3 surfaces. These N=(4,4) superconformal field theories describe the near-horizon dynamics of the D1-D5-brane system and are dual to string theory on AdS_3. We…
