Curvature of quaternionic skew‐Hermitian manifolds and bundle constructions
Abstract This paper is devoted to a description of the second‐order differential geometry of torsion‐free almost quaternionic skew‐Hermitian manifolds, that is, of quaternionic skew‐Hermitian manifolds (M,Q,ω)$(M, Q, \omega)$. We provide a curvature characterization of such integrable geometric structures, based on the holonomy theory of symplectic ...

Special Kähler geometry and holomorphic Lagrangian fibrations
Given a holomorphic Lagrangian fibration of a compact hyperkähler manifold, we use the differential geometry of the special Kähler metric that exists on the base away from the discriminant locus, and show that the pullback of the tangent bundle of the ...

Yang-Mills instantons in Kaehler spaces with one holomorphic isometry
We consider self-dual Yang-Mills instantons in 4-dimensional Kaehler spaces with one holomorphic isometry and show that they satisfy a generalization of the Bogomol'nyi equation for magnetic monopoles on certain 3-dimensional metrics.

Characteristic foliations — A survey
Abstract This is a survey article, with essentially complete proofs, of a series of recent results concerning the geometry of the characteristic foliation on smooth divisors in compact hyperkähler manifolds, starting with work by Hwang–Viehweg, but also covering articles by Amerik–Campana and Abugaliev.

Limits of Riemannian 4-manifolds and the symplectic geometry of their twistor spaces
The twistor space of a Riemannian 4-manifold carries two almost complex structures, $J_+$ and $J_-$, and a natural closed 2-form $\omega$. This article studies limits of manifolds for which $\omega$ tames either $J_+$ or $J_-$.

Subquadratic harmonic functions on Calabi‐Yau manifolds with maximal volume growth
Abstract On a complete Calabi‐Yau manifold M$M$ with maximal volume growth, a harmonic function with subquadratic polynomial growth is the real part of a holomorphic function. This generalizes a result of Conlon‐Hein. We prove this result by proving a Liouville‐type theorem for harmonic 1‐forms, which follows from a new local L2$L^2$ estimate of the ...

Gravitational instantons with quadratic volume growth
Abstract There are two known classes of gravitational instantons with quadratic volume growth at infinity, known as type ALG$\operatorname{ALG}$ and ALG∗$\operatorname{ALG}^*$. Gravitational instantons of type ALG$\operatorname{ALG}$ were previously classified by Chen–Chen.

Morse Theory for the Space of Higgs Bundles
Here we prove the necessary analytic results to construct a Morse theory for the Yang-Mills-Higgs functional on the space of Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface.

Closed 3‐forms in five dimensions and embedding problems
Abstract We consider the question if a five‐dimensional manifold can be embedded into a Calabi–Yau manifold of complex dimension 3 such that the real part of the holomorphic volume form induces a given closed 3‐form on the 5‐manifold. We define an open set of 3‐forms in dimension five which we call strongly pseudoconvex, and show that for closed ...

Integrability of Einstein deformations and desingularizations
Abstract We study the question of the integrability of Einstein deformations and relate it to the question of the desingularization of Einstein metrics. Our main application is a negative answer to the long‐standing question of whether or not every Einstein 4‐orbifold (which is an Einstein metric space in a synthetic sense) is limit of smooth Einstein ...
