In this work, we prove that every complex contact structure gives rise to a distinguished type of almost contact metric 3-structure. As an application of our main result, we provide several new examples of manifolds which admit taut contact…

We use twistor methods to promote Namikawa's universal Poisson deformations of conic affine symplectic singularities to families of hyperk\"ahler structures deforming hyperk\"ahler cone metrics. The metrics we produce are generally…

We answer a question posed independently by Fels-Huckleberry-Wolf and Looijenga concerning the geometric meaning of small deformations of twistor cycles in the K3 period domain. These are shown to induce complex-hyperk\"ahler metrics on…

Let $E:y^2=x^3+ax+b$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. We compute certain twists of the classical modular curves $X(8)$. Searching for rational points on these twists enables us to find non-trivial pairs of $8$-congruent…

Motivated by some results in classical differential geometry, we give a constructive procedure for building up a connection over a (twisted) tensor product of two algebras, starting from connections defined on the factors. The curvature for…

A curve on a projective variety is called movable if it belongs to an algebraic family of curves covering the variety. We consider when the cone of movable curves can be characterized without existence statements of covering families by…

In this paper we study finite dimensional algebras, in particular finite semifields, through their correspondence with nonsingular threefold tensors. We introduce a alternative embedding of the tensor product space into a projective space.…

In math.AG/0108089, math.AG/0212090 and math.AG/0308247 we gave numerical conditions which ensure that an equisingular family is irreducible respectively T-smooth. Combining results by Greuel, Lossen and Shustin and an idea from…

In this paper, twisted tensor product of DG algebras is studied and sufficient conditions for smoothness of such a product are given. It is shown that in the case of finite-dimensional DG algebras, applying this operation offers great…

Let g be a simple simply laced Lie algebra. In this paper two families of varieties associated to the Dynkin graph of g are described: ``tensor product'' and ``multiplicity'' varieties. These varieties are closely related to Nakajima's…

We study the complexity of horizontality in the twistor space $\hat{E}$ associated with an oriented vector bundle $E$ of rank $4$ with a positive-definite metric over a torus. If the horizontality has finite complexity of degree $d>2$ for…

Let $M$ be an $n-$dimensional differentiable manifold with a symmetric connection $\nabla $ and $T^{\ast}M$ be its cotangent bundle. In this paper, we study some properties of the modified Riemannian extension $% \widetilde{g}_{\nabla,c}$…

We consider an almost complex manifold with Norden metric (i. e. a metric with respect to which the almost complex structure is an anti-isometry). On such a manifold we study a linear connection preserving the almost complex structure and…

It is conjectured that every cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold admits a geometric triangulation, i.e. it is decomposed into positive volume ideal hyperbolic tetrahedra. Here, we show that sufficiently highly twisted knots admit a geometric…

By Mazur's Torsion Theorem, there are fourteen possibilities for the non-trivial torsion subgroup $T$ of a rational elliptic curve. For each $T$, such that $E$ may have additive reduction at a prime $p$, we consider a parameterized family…
