We partially describe equivariant Dirac and generalized complex structures on a homogeneous space $G/K$ by giving equivalent data involving only the Lie algebra. We consider real semisimple adjoint orbits in any semisimple Lie algebra over…
Let $\,\Xi\,$ be the crown domain associated with a non-compact irreducible hermitian symmetric space $\,G/K$. We give an explicit description of the unique $\,G$-invariant adapted hyper-K\"ahler structure on $\,\Xi$,$\ $i.$\,$e.$\…
All invariant contact metric structures on tangent sphere bundles of each compact rank-one symmetric space are obtained explicitly, distinguishing for the orthogonal case those that are K-contact, Sasakian or 3-Sasakian. Only the tangent…
Holomorphic principal G-bundles over a complex manifold M can be studied using non-abelian cohomology groups H^1(M,G). On the other hand, if M=\Sigma is a closed Riemann surface, there is a correspondence between holomorphic principal…
We introduce para-complex and pseudo-Riemannian geometric methods for the study of representations of surface groups in $\mathrm{SL}(2m+1,\mathbb{R})$. For $m=1$ our techniques allow to recover several known results for Hitchin…
A smooth curve on a homogeneous manifold $G/H$ is called a Riemannian equigeo-desic if it is a homogeneous geodesic for any $G$-invariant Riemannian metric. The homogeneous manifold $G/H$ is called Riemannian equigeodesic, if for any $x\in…

The main focus of the paper is the investigation of moduli space of left invariant pseudoRiemannian metrics on the cotangent bundle of Heisenberg group. Consideration of orbits of the automorphism group naturally acting on the space of the…
Tubular neighborhoods play an important role in differential topology. We have applied these constructions to geometry of almost Hermitian manifolds. At first, we consider deformations of tensor structures on a normal tubular neighborhood…
A para-K\"ahler manifold can be defined as a pseudo-Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with a parallel skew-symmetric para-complex structures $K$, i.e. a parallel field of skew-symmetric endomorphisms with $ K^2 = \mathrm{Id} $ or, equivalently,…
Let $A$ be a C$*^$-algebra. Given a representation $A\subset B(L)$ in a Hilbert space $L$, the set $G^+\subset A$ of positive invertible elements can be thought as the set of inner products in $L$, related to $A$, which are equivalent to…
Let $M=G/K$ be a Hermitian symmetric space of noncompact type. We provide a way of constructing $K$-equivariant embeddings from $M$ to its tangent space $T_oM$ at the origin by using the polarity of the $K$-action. As an application, we…
In this note, we propose an approach to the study of the analogue for unipotent harmonic bundles of Schmid's Nilpotent Orbit Theorem. Using this approach, we construct harmonic metrics on unipotent bundles over quasi-compact K\"ahler…
Let $\xi=(G\times_{K} \mathcal{G} / \mathcal{K}, \rho_{\xi}, \emph{G} / \emph{K},\mathcal{G} / \mathcal{K})$ be the associated bundle and $\tau_{G/K}=(T_{G/K},\pi_{G/K},G/K, \textrm{R}^{m})$ be the tangent bundle of special examples of odd…
This paper is devoted to the construction of a hyperkaehler structure on the complexification of any Hermitian-symmetric affine coadjoint orbit O of a semi-simple L*-group of compact type, which is compatible with the complex symplectic…
Following the approach to pseudo-Riemannian symmetric spaces developed in math.DG/0408249 we exhibit examples of indefinite hyper-Kaehler symmetric spaces with non-abelian holonomy. Moreover, we classify indecomposable hyper-Kaehler…
Let K be a non-archimedean local field. This paper gives an explicit isomorphism between the dual of the special representation of GL_{n+1}(K)$and the space of harmonic cochains defined on the Bruhat-Tits building of GL_{n+1}(K), the…
Quantization identifies the cotangent bundle of projective space with the (non-Hermitian) rank-$1$ projections of a Hilbert space. We use this identification to study the natural geometric structures of these cotangent bundles and those of…
Let K be a connected Lie group of compact type and let T*(K) be its cotangent bundle. This paper considers geometric quantization of T*(K), first using the vertical polarization and then using a natural Kahler polarization obtained by…
