The moduli space of flat G-bundles on a compact hyper-Kahler manifold

We present some fundamental facts about a class of generalized K\"ahler structures defined by invariant complex structures on compact Lie groups. The main computational tool is the BH-to-GK spectral sequences that relate the bi-Hermitian data to generalized geometry data. The relationship between generalized Hodge decomposition and generalized canonical bundles for generalized K\"ahler manifolds is also clarified.

Let $G$ be a simply-connected semisimple compact Lie group, $X$ a compact K\"ahler manifold homogeneous under $G$, and $L$ a negative $G$-equivariant holomorphic line bundle over $X$. We prove that all $G$-invariant K\"ahler metrics on the total space of $L$ arise from the Calabi ansatz. Using this, we then show that there exists a unique $G$-invariant scalar-flat K\"ahler metric in each K\"ahler class of $L$.

We prove that one can obtain natural bundles of Lie algebras on rank two s-K\"ahler manifolds, whose fibres are isomorphic to so(s+1,s+1), su(s+1,s+1) and sl(2s + 2,\R). In the most rigid case (which includes complex tori and abelian varieties) these bundles have natural flat connections, whose flat global sections act naturally on cohomology. We also present several natural examples of manifolds which can be equipped with an s-K\"ahler structure with various levels of rigidi...

Let G be compact Lie group. It is shown that the cotangent bundle of the complexification of G admits a hyperkahler structure which is invariant under left and right translations by elements of G. The proof is to realize the cotangent bundle of the complex group as a moduli space of solutions to Nahm's equations on the closed interval.

The paper presents a classification theorem for the class of flat connections with triangular (0,1)-components on a topologically trivial complex vector bundle over a compact Kahler manifold. As a consequence we obtain several results on the structure of K\"{a}hler groups, i.e., the fundamental groups of compact Kahler manifolds.

We consider the moduli space MN of flat unitary connections on an open Kaehler manifold U (complement of a divisor with normal crossings) with restrictions on their monodromy transformations. Using intersection and L2 cohomologies with degenerating coefficients we construct a natural symplectic form F on MN. When U is quasi-projective we prove that F is actually a Kaehler form.

A Riemannian metric bundle G(M) is a fiber bundle over a smooth manifold M, whose fibers are the spaces of symmetric, positive-definite bilinear forms on the tangent spaces of M, which represent the Rieman?nian metrics. In this work, we aim to study the category of Riemannian metric bundles and explore their connections with K-theory and other areas of mathematics. Our main motivation comes from the idea of multi-norms in Banach spaces, which have found applications in di?ver...

We construct explicit examples of quaternion-K\"ahler and hypercomplex structures on bundles over hyperK\"ahler manifolds. We study the infinitesimal symmetries of these examples and the associated Galicki-Lawson quaternion-K\"ahler moment map. By performing the QK reduction we produce several explicit QK metrics. Moreover we are led to a new proof of a hyperK\"ahler/quaternion-K\"ahler type correspondence. We also give examples of other Einstein metrics and balanced Hermitia...

Let $g$ be locally homogeneous (LH) Riemannian metric on a differentiable compact manifold $M$, and $K$ be a compact Lie group endowed with an $\mathrm {ad}$-invariant inner product on its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{k}$. A connection $A$ on a principal $K$-bundle $p:P\to M$ on $M$ is locally homogeneous if for any two points $x_1$, $x_2\in M$ there exists an isometry $\varphi:U_1\to U_2$ between open neighborhoods $U_i\ni x_i$ which sends $x_1$ to $x_2$ and admits a $\varphi$-cov...

Given a generic stable strongly parabolic $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$-Higgs bundle $(\mathcal{E}, \varphi)$, we describe the family of harmonic metrics $h_t$ for the ray of Higgs bundles $(\mathcal{E}, t \varphi)$ for $t\gg0$ by perturbing from an explicitly constructed family of approximate solutions $h_t^{\mathrm{app}}$. We then describe the natural hyperK\"ahler metric on $\mathcal{M}$ by comparing it to a simpler "semi-flat" hyperK\"ahler metric. We prove that $g_{L^2} - g_{\mathr...
