Non-Abelian Tensor Multiplet Equations from Twistor Space
Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2014 We establish a Penrose-Ward transform yielding a bijection between holomorphic principal 2-bundles over a twistor space and non-Abelian self-dual tensor fields on six-dimensional flat space-time.

Twistor space origins of the Newman-Penrose map
SciPost Physics, 2022 Recently, we introduced the "Newman-Penrose map", a novel correspondence between a certain class of solutions of Einstein's equations and self-dual solutions of the vacuum Maxwell equations, which we showed was closely related to the classical double ...

Twistor surfaces and right-flat spaces
General Relativity and Gravitation, 1978 The connection between the deformed twistor space of Penrose and Plebanski's form for the general right-flat metric is explored. A Hamiltonian formalism for obtaining the twistor surfaces in a right-flat space with Plebanski's Ω-function as Hamiltonian is obtained.

Ambitwistor strings in six and five dimensions
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 Ambitwistor strings are chiral (holomorphic) strings whose target is the space of complex null geodesics, ambitwistor space. We introduce twistor representations of ambitwistor space in 6 and 5 dimensions.

Generalized almost even-Clifford manifolds and their twistor spaces
Complex Manifolds, 2021 Motivated by the recent interest in even-Clifford structures and in generalized complex and quaternionic geometries, we introduce the notion of generalized almost even-Clifford structure. We generalize the Arizmendi-Hadfield twistor space construction on

Twistor Actions for Integrable Systems
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 Many integrable systems can be reformulated as holomorphic vector bundles on twistor space. This is a powerful organizing principle in the theory of integrable systems.

Unobstructedness of hyperkähler twistor spaces [PDF]
Mathematische Zeitschrift, 2021 AbstractA family of irreducible holomorphic symplectic (ihs) manifolds over the complex projective line has unobstructed deformations if its period map is an embedding. This applies in particular to twistor spaces of ihs manifolds. Moreover, a family of ihs manifolds over a subspace of the period domain extends to a universal family over an open ...

Mini-twistors and the Cotton double copy
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 The double copy relates quantities in gauge, gravity and related theories. A well-known procedure for relating exact classical solutions is the Weyl double copy in four spacetime dimensions, and a three-dimensional analogue of this — the Cotton double ...
