We show that the existence of a left-invariant pluriclosed Hermitian metric on a unimodular Lie group with a left-invariant abelian complex structure forces the group to be $2$-step nilpotent. Moreover, we prove that the pluriclosed flow…

We obtain some general results on Sasakian Lie algebras and prove as a consequence that a (2n + 1)-dimensional nilpotent Lie group admitting left-invariant Sasakian structures is isomorphic to the real Heisenberg group $H_{2n + 1}$.…

This work investigates the existence of complex structures on 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras arising from finite graphs. We introduce the notion of adapted complex structure, namely a complex structure that maps vertices and edges of the…

For a complex manifold $(M,J)$, an SKT (or pluriclosed) metric is a $J$-Hermitian metric $g$ whose fundamental form $\omega:=g(J\cdot,\cdot)$ satisfies the condition $\partial\overline{\partial}\omega=0$. As such, an SKT metric can be…

We classify nilmanifolds with an invariant symplectic half-flat structure. We solve the half-flat evolution equations in one example, writing down the resulting Ricci-flat metric. We study the geometry of the orbit space of 6-manifolds with…

For a closed smooth manifold $M$ admitting a symplectic structure, we define a smooth topological invariant $Z(M)$ using almost-K\"ahler metrics, i.e. Riemannian metrics compatible with symplectic structures. We also introduce $Z(M,…

This work deals with relations between a bounded cohomological invariant and the geometry of Hermitian symmetric spaces of noncompact type. The invariant, obtained from the K\"ahler class, is used to define and characterize a special class…

In this paper, we establish a priori estimates and existence results for solutions of a general class of fully non-linear equations on noncompact K\"{a}hler and Hermitian manifolds. As geometric applications, we construct complete…

We show that the de Rham complex of any almost Hermitian manifold carries a natural commutative $BV_\infty$-algebra structure satisfying the degeneration property. In the almost K\"ahler case, this recovers Koszul's BV-algebra, defined for…

The paper is devoted to the investigation of finite dimensional commutative nilpotent (associative) algebras N over an arbitrary base field of characteristic zero. Due to the lack of a general structure theory for algebras of this type (as…

We investigate the existence of $p$-K\"ahler structures on two classes of complex manifolds: on quasi-regular fibrations, with particular emphasis on complex homogeneous spaces, and on reductive Lie groups endowed with invariant complex…

It is shown that any finite-dimensional homomorphic image of an inverse limit of nilpotent not-necessarily-associative algebras over a field is nilpotent. More generally, this is true of algebras over a general commutative ring k, with…

In 1976, Milnor classified all Lie groups admitting a flat left-invariant metric. They form a special type of unimodular 2-step solvable groups. Considering Lie groups with Hermitian structure, namely, a left-invariant complex structure and…

We use the shear construction to construct and classify a wide range of two-step solvable Lie groups admitting a left-invariant SKT structure. We reduce this to a specification of SKT shear data on Abelian Lie algebras, and which then is…

The aim of this paper is to continue the study of Kodaira dimension for almost complex manifolds, focusing on the case of compact $4$-dimensional solvmanifolds without any integrable almost complex structure. According to the classification…

Gray & Hervella gave a classification of almost Hermitian structures (g,I) into 16 classes. We systematically study the interaction between these classes when one has an almost hyper-Hermitian structure (g,I,J,K). In general dimension we…

This paper is concerned with the existence of metrics of constant Hermitian scalar curvature on almost-K\"ahler manifolds obtained as smoothings of a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler orbifold, with $A_1$ singularities. More precisely,…

A study is made of left-invariant $\mathrm{G}_2$-structures with an exact 3-form on a Lie group $G$ whose Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ admits a codimension-one nilpotent ideal $\mathfrak{h}$. It is shown that such a Lie group $G$ cannot admit…

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…

We prove that any left-invariant symplectic almost complex structure on a Thurston manifold which is compatible with its canonical left-invariant Riemannian metric has holomorphic type 1.
