Abstract
We construct a generalization of twistor spaces of hypercomplex manifolds and hyper-Kahler manifolds , by generalizing the twistor to a more general complex manifold . The resulting manifold is complex if and only if admits a holomorphic map to . We make branched double covers of these manifolds. Some class of these branched double covers can give rise to non-Kahler Calabi-Yau manifolds. We show that these manifolds and their branched double covers are non-Kahler. In the cases that is a balanced manifold, the resulting manifold and its special branched double cover have balanced Hermitian metrics.
