In this paper, we study nilpotent structures of an oriented vector bundle $E$ of rank $4n$ with a neutral metric $h$ and an $h$-connection $\nabla$. We define $H$-nilpotent structures of $(E, h, \nabla )$ for a Lie subgroup $H$ of $SO(2n,…
We study symplectic (contact) structures on nilmanifolds that correspond to the filiform Lie algebras - nilpotent Lie algebras of the maximal length of the descending central sequence. We give a complete classification of filiform Lie…
We completely characterize cosymplectic and $\alpha$-cosymplectic Lie algebras in terms of corresponding symplectic Lie algebras and suitable derivations on them. Several examples are given and classification results are obtained in…
We investigate contact Lie groups having a left invariant Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian metric with specific properties such as being bi-invariant, flat, negatively curved, Einstein, etc. We classify some of such contact Lie groups and…
To determine the Lie groups that admit a flat (eventually complete) left invariant semi-Riemannian metric is an open and difficult problem. The main aim of this paper is the study of the flatness of left invariant semi Riemannian metrics on…
We study 4-dimensional simply connected Lie groups $G$ with left-invariant Riemannian metric $g$ admitting non-trivial conformal Killing 2-forms. We show that either the real line defined by such a form is invariant under the group action,…
We construct a simply connected compact manifold which has complex and symplectic structures but does not admit K\"ahler metrics, in the lowest possible dimension where this can happen, that is, dimension 6. Such a manifold is automatically…
First we describe the Skjelbred-Sund method for classifying nilpotent Lie algebras. Then we use it to classify 6-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras over any field of characteristic not 2. The proof of this classification is essentially…
We find a one-parameter family of non-isomorphic nilpotent Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}_a$, with $a \in [0,\infty)$, of real dimension eight with (strongly non-nilpotent) complex structures. By restricting $a$ to take rational values, we…
Cyclic metric Lie groups are Lie groups equipped with a left-invariant metric which is in some way far from being biinvariant, in a sense made explicit in terms of Tricerri and Vanhecke's homogeneous structures. The semisimple and solvable…
We give a method to obtain new 7-dimensional Lie algebras endowed with closed and coclosed G2-structures starting from 6-dimensional Lie algebras with symplectic half- at SU(3)-structures and half- at SU(3)- structures, respectively.…
We show there is a class of symplectic Lie algebra representations over any field of characteristic not 2 or 3 that have many of the exceptional algebraic and geometric properties of both symmetric three forms in two dimensions and…
We classify hom-Lie structures with nilpotent twisting map on $3$-dimensional complex Lie algebras, up to isomorphism, and classify all degenerations in such family. The ideas and techniques presented here can be easily extrapolated to…
We investigate Lie bialgebra structures on simple Lie algebras of non-split type $A$. It turns out that there are several classes of such Lie bialgebra structures, and it is possible to classify some of them. The classification is obtained…
Let $(M,J)$ be a complex manifold of complex dimension $n$. A $p$-K\"ahler structure on $(M,J)$ is a real, closed $(p,p)$-transverse form. In this paper, we address the conjecture of L. Alessandrini and G. Bassanelli on $(n-2)$-K\"ahler…
The main purpose of the paper is to study hyperkahler structures from the viewpoint of symplectic geometry. We introduce a notion of hypersymplectic structures which encompasses that of hyperkahler structures. Motivated by the work of…
We construct a family of $6$-dimensional compact manifolds $M(A)$, which are simultaneously diffeomorphic to complex Calabi-Yau manifolds and symplectic Calabi-Yau manifolds. They have fundamental groups $\mathbb{Z} \oplus \mathbb{Z}$,…
The aim of this work is the study of left-invariant magnetic fields on 2-step nilpotent Lie groups. While the existence of closed 2-forms for which the center is either nondegenerate or in the kernel of the 2-form, is always guaranteed, the…
A study is made of real Lie algebras admitting a hypersymplectic structure, and we provide a method to construct such hypersymplectic Lie algebras. We use this method in order to obtain the classification of all hypersymplectic structures…
It was shown by Samelson and Wang that each compact Lie group K of even dimension admits left-invariant complex structures. When K has odd dimension it admits a left-invariant CR-structure of maximal dimension. This has been proved recently…
