The subject of this paper is six-dimensional nearly (para-)K\"ahler geometry with pseudo-Riemannian metrics. Firstly, we derive the analogue of the well-known exterior differential system characterising a nearly K\"ahler manifold and prove…
We obtain the natural diagonal almost product and locally product structures on the total space of the cotangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold. We find the Riemannian almost product (locally product) and the (almost) para-Hermitian…
We present a uniform framework generalising and extending the classical theories of projective differential geometry, c-projective geometry, and almost quaternionic geometry. Such geometries, which we call \emph{projective parabolic…
We develop a holonomy reduction procedure for general Cartan geometries. We show that, given a reduction of holonomy, the underlying manifold naturally decomposes into a disjoint union of initial submanifolds. Each such submanifold…
The structure of nearly K\"ahler manifolds was studied by Gray in several papers. More recently, a relevant progress on the subject has been done by Nagy. Among other results, he proved that a strict and complete nearly K\"ahler manifold is…
We show that $3$-Sasaki structures admit a natural description in terms of projective differential geometry. This description provides a concrete link between $3$-Sasaki structures and several other geometries and constructions via a single…
Firstly we give a condition to split off the K"ahler factor from a nearly pseudo-K"ahler manifold and apply this to get a structure result in dimension 8. Secondly we extend the construction of nearly K"ahler manifolds from twistor spaces…
On a para-quaternionic K\"ahler manifold $(\widetilde M^{4n},Q,\widetilde g)$, which is first of all a pseudo-Riemannian manifold, a natural definition of (almost) K\"ahler and (almost) para-K\"ahler submanifold $(M^{2m},\mathcal{J},g)$ can…
There is a rich theory of so-called (strict) nearly Kaehler manifolds, almost-Hermitian manifolds generalising the famous almost complex structure on the 6-sphere induced by octonionic multiplication. Nearly Kaehler 6-manifolds play a…
We analyze the classic problem of existence of Einstein metrics in a given conformal structure for the class of conformal structures inducedf Nurowski's construction by (oriented) (2,3,5) distributions. We characterize in two ways such…
We develop in detail the theory of c-projective geometry, a natural analogue of projective differential geometry adapted to complex manifolds. We realise it as a type of parabolic geometry and describe the associated Cartan or tractor…
For an almost contact metric manifold $N$, we find conditions for which either the total space of an $S^1$-bundle over $N$ or the Riemannian cone over $N$ admits a strong K\"ahler with torsion (SKT) structure. In this way we construct new…
We classify six-dimensional homogeneous nearly K\"{a}hler manifolds and give a positive answer to Gray and Wolf's conjecture: every homogeneous nearly K\"{a}hler manifold is a Riemannian 3-symmetric space equipped with its canonical almost…
Let $(M,g)$ be an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold and $T^{*}M$ be its cotangent bundle equipped with a Riemannian metric of Cheeger Gromoll type which rescale the horizontal part by a nonzero differentiable function. The main purpose of…
We present a new method for classifying naturally reductive homogeneous spaces -- i.\,e.~homogeneous Riemannian manifolds admitting a metric connection with skew torsion that has parallel torsion \emph{and} curvature. This method is based…
Motivated by the geometry of Levi degenerate CR hypersurfaces, we define a pre-K\"ahler structure on a complex manifold as a pre-symplectic structure compatible with the almost complex structure, i.e. a closed (1,1)-form. Extending Freeman…
We prove that any totally geodesic hypersurface $N^5$ of a 6-dimensional nearly K\"ahler manifold $M^6$ is a Sasaki-Einstein manifold, and so it has a hypo structure in the sense of \cite{ConS}. We show that any Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifold…
Nearly K\"ahler manifolds are the Riemannian 6-manifolds admitting real Killing spinors. Equivalently, the Riemannian cone over a nearly K\"ahler manifold has holonomy contained in G2. In this paper we study the deformation theory of nearly…
A Cartan manifold is a smooth manifold M whose slit cotangent bundle T*M0 is endowed with a regular Hamiltonian K which is positively homogeneous of degree 2 in momenta. The Hamiltonian K defines a (pseudo)-Riemannian metric gij in the…
On an almost complex manifold, a quasi-K\"{a}hler metric, with canonical connection in the c-projective class of a given minimal complex connection, is equivalent to a non-degenerate solution of the c-projectively invariant metrizability…
