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…
In this article, we propose the following conjecture: if the Strominger connection of a compact Hermitian manifold has constant non-zero holomorphic sectional curvature, then the Hermitian metric must be K\"ahler. The main result of this…
We study the six-dimensional solvmanifolds that admit complex structures of splitting type classifying the underlying solvable Lie algebras. In particular, many complex structures of this type exist on the Nakamura manifold $X$, and they…
We prove that locally conformally K\"ahler metrics on certain compact complex surfaces with odd first Betti number can be deformed to new examples of bi-Hermitian metrics.
In this note, we discuss symmetric brackets on skew-symmetric algebroids associated with a metric structure. Given a pseudo-Riemannian metric structure, we describe symmetric brackets induced by connections with totally skew-symmetric…
We study the question of the existence of left-invariant Sasaki contact structures on the seven-dimensional nilpotent Lie groups. It is shown that the only Lie group allowing Sasaki structure with a positive definite metric tensor is the…
We study compact complex $3$-dimensional non-K\"ahler Bismut Ricci flat pluriclosed Hermitian manifolds (BHE) via their dimensional reduction to a special K\"ahler geometry in complex dimension $2$, recently obtained by Barbaro, Streets and…
An LCK (locally conformally Kahler) manifold is a Hermitian manifold which admits a Kahler cover with deck group acting by holomorphic homotheties with respect to the Kahler metric. The product of two LCK manifolds does not have a natural…
Let $G$ be a Lie group of even dimension and let $(g,J)$ be a left invariant anti-K\"ahler structure on $G$. In this article we study anti-K\"{a}hler structures considering the distinguished cases where the complex structure $J$ is abelian…
In this paper a conformal classification of three dimensional left-invariant sub-Riemannian contact structures is carried out; in particular we will prove the following dichotomy: either a structure is locally conformal to the Heisenberg…
We study the existence of lattices in almost abelian Lie groups that admit left invariant locally conformal K\"ahler or locally conformal symplectic structures in order to obtain compact solvmanifolds equipped with these geometric…
A nilmanifold is a (left) quotient of a nilpotent Lie group by a cocompact lattice. A hypercomplex structure on a manifold is a triple of complex structure operators satisfying the quaternionic relations. A hypercomplex nilmanifold is a…
We investigate harmonic forms of geometrically formal metrics, which are defined as those having the exterior product of any two harmonic forms still harmonic. We prove that a formal Sasakian metric can exist only on a real cohomology…
It is well known that the product of two Sasakian manifolds carries a 2-parameter family of Hermitian structures $(J_{a,b},g_{a,b})$. We show in this article that the complex structure $J_{a,b}$ is harmonic with respect to $g_{a,b}$, i.e.…
Integrable hypercomplex structures with Hermitian and Norden metrics on Lie groups of dimension 4 are considered. The corresponding five types of invariant hypercomplex structures with hyper-Hermitian metric, studied by M.L. Barberis, are…
Let N be a nilpotent Lie group and let S be an invariant geometric structure on N (cf. symplectic, complex or hypercomplex). We define a left invariant Riemannian metric on N compatible with S to be "minimal", if it minimizes the norm of…
An old open question in non-K\"ahler geometry predicts that any compact Hermitian manifold with constant holomorphic sectional curvature must be K\"ahler or Chern flat. The conjecture is known to be true in dimension $2$ due to the work by…
We study almost Hermitian structures admitting a Hermitian connexion with totally skew-symmetric torsion or equivalently, those almost Hermitian structures with totally skew-symmetric Nijenhuis tensor. We investigate up to what extent the…
In this paper, we give a classification of all compact Hermitian manifolds with flat Bismut connection. We show that the torsion tensor of such a manifold must be parallel, thus the universal cover of such a manifold is a Lie group equipped…
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…
