The recently introduced anomaly-free twistor string in four dimensions is shown to be defined not just in flat but also in curved twistor space. Further, arguments are given that the classical limit of the corresponding string field theory,…
We construct a braided structure on the algebra of K\"ahler differential forms of a commutative algebra twisted by an endomorphism. This generalises the construction done in M. Karoubi, Quantum Methods in Algebraic Topology, see…
Let $X$ be a quasi-projective curve, compactified to $(Y,D)$ with $X=Y-D$. We construct a Deligne-Hitchin twistor space out of moduli spaces of framed $\lambda$-connections of rank $2$ over $Y$ with logarithmic singularities and…
Twistor phase spaces are used to provide a general description of the dynamics of a finite number of directly interacting massless spinning particles forming a closed relativistic massive and spinning system with an internal structure. A…
Broadly speaking, twistor theory is a framework for encoding physical information on space-time as geometric data on a complex projective space, known as a twistor space. The relationship between space-time and twistor space is non-local…
In this work a proposal for definition of twistors on generic curved spaces is exposed and investigated. We consider superpositions of nearly autoparallel and nearly geodesic maps (nearly conformal maps, nc-maps) of (pseudo-)Riemannian…
Hughston has shown that projective pure spinors can be used to construct massless solutions in higher dimensions, generalizing the four-dimensional twistor transform of Penrose. In any even (Euclidean) dimension d=2n, projective pure…
A Fourier transform from momentum space to twistor space is introduced in twistor string theory, for the first time, for the case where the twistor space is a three-dimensional real projective space, corresponding to ultra-hyperbolic…
The aim of this work is to give a twistor presentation of recent results about bi-Hermitian metrics on compact complex surfaces with odd first Betti number.
Twist tori are examples of exotic monotone lagrangian tori, presented in [1]. This tree of examples grew up over the first one --- the torus $\Theta \in \R^4$, constructured in [2] and [3]. On the other hand, in [4] and [5] we proposed a…
New types "extended" (super)conformal algebras $G^{(\frac n2)}$ are presented. (Su\-per)twistor spaces $T$ are subspaces in cosets $G^{(\frac n2)}/H$. The (super)twistor correspondence has a cleary defined geometrical meaning.
Twistor formulation of massive arbitrary spin particle has been constructed. Twistor space of such particle is formed two twistors and two complex scalars which form together 'bosonic supertwistor'. The formulation is deduced from…
In contrast to the classical twistor spaces whose fibres are 2-spheres, we introduce twistor spaces over manifolds with almost quaternionic structures of the second kind in the sense of P. Libermann whose fibres are hyperbolic planes. We…
In this note, we describe a procedure to construct generalized complex structures with an arbitrarily large number of type change loci on products of the circle with a connected sum of closed 3-manifolds. The loci need not be isotopic.
The theory of slice regular functions of a quaternion variable is applied to the study of orthogonal complex structures on domains \Omega\ of R^4. When \Omega\ is a symmetric slice domain, the twistor transform of such a function is a…
We use twistor theory to identify the harmonic hull of an arbitrary connected open subset U of R^{2m} for m at least 2. It is the natural domain of analytic continuation in C^{2m} for harmonic functions on U.
Transport twistor spaces are degenerate complex $2$-dimensional manifolds $Z$ that complexify transport problems on Riemannian surfaces, appearing, e.g., in geometric inverse problems. This article considers maps $\beta\colon Z\to…
This paper introduces the notion of twisted toric manifolds which is a generalization of one of symplectic toric manifolds, and proves the weak Delzant type classification theorem for them. The computation methods for their fundamental…
We characterize HKT structure in terms of nondegenrate complex Poisson bivector on hypercomplex manifold. We extend the characterization to the twistor space. After considering the flat case in detail, we show that the twistor space of…
A generalization of the twistor shift procedure to the case of superparticle interacting with the background D=3 N=1 Maxwell and D=3 N=1 supergravity supermultiplet is considered. We investigate twistor shift effects and discuss the…
