Almost hypercomplex pseudo-Hermitian manifolds are considered. Isotropic hyper-K\"ahler manifolds are introduced. A 4-parametric family of 4-dimensional manifolds of this type is constructed on a Lie group. This family is characterized…

We proved the existence of supersymmetric Hermitian metrics with torsion on a class of non-Kaehler manifolds.

We study curvature properties of four-dimensional almost Hermitian manifolds with vanishing Bochner curvature tensor as defined by Tricerri and Vanhecke. We give local structure theorems for such Kaehler manifolds, and find out several…

It is proved that if an almost K\"ahler manifold of dimension greater or equal to 8 is of pointwise constant antiholomorphic sectional curvature, then it is a complex space form.

Let $(\acute{N},g,\nabla )$\ be a $2n$-dimensional quasi-statistical manifold that admits a pseudo-Riemannian metric $g$ (or $h)$ and a linear connection $\nabla $ with torsion. This paper aims to study an almost Hermitian structure $(g,L)$…

In the present paper, we study compact complex manifolds admitting a Hermitian metric which is SKT and CYT and whose Bismut torsion is parallel. We first obtain a characterization of the universal cover of such manifolds as a product of a…

We review the theory of quaternionic Kahler and hyperkahler structures. Then we consider the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold M with a metric connection D (with torsion) and with its well estabilished canonical complex structure.…

We continue our study on Hermitian manifolds that are {\em Bismut torsion parallel,} or {\em BTP} for brevity, which means that the Bismut connection has parallel torsion tensor. For $n\geq 3$, BTP metrics can be balanced (and…

On a sub-Riemannian manifold, a connection with skew-symmetric torsion is defined as the unique connection from the class of $N$-connections that has this property. Two cases are considered separately: sub-Riemannian structure of even rank,…

Second-order symmetric Lorentzian spaces, that is to say, Lorentzian manifolds with vanishing second derivative of the curvature tensor R, are characterized by several geometric properties, and explicitly presented. Locally, they are a…

We study nearly-Kahler 6-manifolds equipped with a cohomogeneity-two Lie group action for which the principal orbits are coisotropic. If the metric is complete, then we show that this last condition is automatically satisfied, and both the…

On a Riemannian almost product manifold $(M,P,g)$ we consider a linear connection preserving the almost product structure $P$ and the Riemannian metric $g$ and having a totally skew-symmetric torsion. We determine the class of the manifolds…

We work in both the complex and in the para-complex categories and examine (para)-K\"ahler Weyl structures in both the geometric and in the algebraic settings. The higher dimensional setting is quite restrictive. We show that any…

We show that the conservation of energy-momentum tensor of a gravitational model with Einstein-Hilbert like action on a nearly Kahler manifold with the scalar curvature of a curvature-like tensor, is consistent with the nearly Kahler…

A Hermitian metric on a complex manifold of complex dimension $n$ is called {\em astheno-K\"ahler} if its fundamental $2$-form $F$ satisfies the condition $\partial \overline \partial F^{n - 2} =0$. If $n =3$, then the metric is {\em strong…

In the first part of this note we study compact Riemannian manifolds (M,g) whose Riemannian product with R is conformally Einstein. We then consider compact 6--dimensional almost Hermitian manifolds of type W_1+W_4 in the Gray--Hervella…

In dimension greater than four, we prove that if a Hermitian non-Kaehler manifold is of pointwise constant antiholomorphic sectional curvatures, then it is of constant sectional curvatures.

An old conjecture in non-K\"ahler geometry states that, if a compact Hermitian manifold has constant holomorphic sectional curvature, then the metric must be K\"ahler (when the constant is non-zero) or Chern flat (when the constant is…

We classify 7-dimensional cocalibrated $\G_2$-manifolds with parallel characteristic torsion and non-abelian holonomy. All these spaces admit a metric connection $\nabla^{\mathrm{c}}$ with totally skew-symmetric torsion and a spinor field…

The largest class of Riemannian almost product manifolds, which is closed with respect to the group of the conformal transformations of the Riemannian metric, is the class of the conformal Riemannian P-manifolds. This class is an analogue…
