Weak almost contact manifolds, i.e., the linear complex structure on the contact distribution is approximated by a nonsingular skew-symmetric tensor, defined by the author and R. Wolak (2022), allowed a new look at the theory of contact…

We study the local commutation relation between the Lefschetz operator and the exterior differential on an almost complex manifold with a compatible metric. The identity that we obtain generalizes the backbone of the local K\"ahler…

A Cartan manifold is a smooth manifold M whose slit cotangent bundle T*M0 is endowed with a regular Hamiltonian K which is positively homogeneous of degree 2 in momenta. The Hamiltonian K defines a (pseudo)-Riemannian metric gij in the…

Any pseudo-Hermitian or para-Hermitian manifold of dimension 4 admits a unique Kaehler-Weyl structure; this structure is locally conformally Kaehler if and only if the alternating Ricci tensor vanishes. The alternating Ricci tensor takes…

Let (M,I, \omega, \Omega) be a nearly Kaehler 6-manifold, that is, an SU(3)-manifold with the (3,0)-form \Omega and the Hermitian form \omega which satisfies $d\omega=3\lambda\Re\Omega, d\Im\Omega=-2\lambda\omega^2$, for a non-zero real…

We present a new method for classifying naturally reductive homogeneous spaces -- i.\,e.~homogeneous Riemannian manifolds admitting a metric connection with skew torsion that has parallel torsion \emph{and} curvature. This method is based…

Given an integral symplectic manifold, we construct a family of "coherent state" maps into complex projective space. The maps are built from sections of the tensor powers of a hermitian line bundle whose curvature is a multiple of the…

We investigate a class of locally conformal almost K\"ahler structures and prove that, under some conditions, this class is a subclass of almost K\"ahler structures. We show that a locally conformal almost K\"ahler manifold admits a…
