Motivated by understanding the limiting case of a certain systolic inequality we study compact Riemannian manifolds having all harmonic 1-forms of constant length. We give complete characterizations as far as K\"ahler and hyperbolic…
We study the conditions under which an almost Hermitian structure $(G,J)$ of general natural lift type on the cotangent bundle $T^*M$ of a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ is K\" ahlerian. First, we obtain the algebraic conditions under which…
We consider higher dimensional generalisations of normal almost contact structures, the so called f.pk-structures where parallelism spans a Lie algebra g (f.pk-g-structures). Two types of these structures are discussed. In the first case,…
Given any non-compact real simple Lie group G of inner type and even dimension, we prove the existence of an invariant complex structure J and a Hermitian balanced metric with vanishing Chern scalar curvature on G and on any compact…
We prove that any $4$-dimensional almost-K\"ahler Lie algebra of constant Hermitian holomorphic sectional curvature with respect to the canonical Hermitian connection is K\"ahler.
We investigate the Hermitian curvature flow (HCF) of left-invariant metrics on complex unimodular Lie groups. We show that in this setting the flow is governed by the Ricci-flow type equation $\partial_tg_{t}=-{\rm Ric}^{1,1} (g_t)$. The…
The Almost Hermitian Curvature flow was introduced by Streets and Tian in order to study almost hermitian structures, with a particular interest in symplectic structures. This flow is given by a diffusion-reaction equation. Hence it is…
We investigate the algebraic structure of complex Lie groups equipped with left-invariant metrics which are expanding semi-algebraic solitons to the Hermitian curvature flow (HCF). We show that the Lie algebras of such Lie groups decompose…
We investigate left-invariant Hitchin and hypo flows on $5$-, $6$- and $7$-dimensional Lie groups. They provide Riemannian cohomogeneity-one manifolds of one dimension higher with holonomy contained in $SU(3)$, $G_2$ and $Spin(7)$,…
The characteristic connection of an almost hermitian structure is a hermitian connection with totally skew-symmetric torsion. The case of parallel torsion in dimension six is of particular interest. In this work, we give a full…
We study the interplay between the following types of special non-K\"ahler Hermitian metrics on compact complex manifolds: it locally conformally K\"ahler, $k$-Gauduchon, balanced and locally conformally balanced and prove that a locally…
It is known that there are 34 classes of isomorphic connected simply connected six-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups. Of these, only 26 classes suppose left-invariant symplectic structures \cite{Goze-Khakim-Med}. In \cite{CFU2} it is shown…
A long-standing conjecture in non-K\"ahler geometry states that if the Chern (or Levi-Civita) holomorphic sectional curvature of a compact Hermitian manifold is a constant $c$, then the metric must be K\"ahler when $c\neq 0$ and must be…
We introduce the notion of even Clifford structures on Riemannian manifolds, a framework generalizing almost Hermitian and quaternion-Hermitian geometries. We give the complete classification of manifolds carrying parallel even Clifford…
While the Anomaly flow was originally motivated by string theory, its zero slope case is potentially of considerable interest in non-Kahler geometry, as it is a flow of conformally balanced metrics whose stationary points are precisely…
We study Hermitian structures on twisted cartesian products $(\mathfrak{g}_{(\rho_{1},\rho_{2})},\mathrm{J},\cal{K})$ of two Hermitian Lie algebras according to two representations $\rho_{1}$ and $\rho_{2}$. We give the conditions on…
In this paper we study the set of balanced metrics (in Donaldson's terminology) on a compact complex manifold M which are homothetic to a given balanced one. This question is related to various properties of the Tian-Yau-Zelditch…
We show that integrability of an almost complex structure in complex dimension $m$ is equivalent, in the presence of an almost hermitian metric, to $m(m-1)$ equations involving what we call shear operators. Inspired by this, we give an…
We study the positive Hermitian curvature flow for left-invariant metrics on $2$-step nilpotent Lie groups with a left-invariant complex structure $J$. We describe the long-time behavior of the flow under the assumption that…
LVMB manifolds are a class of non-K\"ahler compact complex manifolds with a remarkably rich geometry: in many cases they admit a holomorphic bundle structure over a compact toric manifold. In fact, such a bundle is determined by an…
