Geometry of some twistor spaces of algebraic dimension one
It is shown that there exists a twistor space on the n-fold connected sum of complex projective planes nCP2, whose algebraic dimension is one and whose general fiber of the algebraic reduction is birational to an elliptic ruled surface or a K3 surface ...

The work of R. Penrose has shown the deep relationship between the conformal structure of Minkowski space and the complex geometry of lines in projective three-space. This transformation applies to a more general class of conformal structures and in particular there is a riemannian version, described in [5], which is itself of interest to mathematical ...

Twistor spaces for Riemannian symmetric spaces [PDF]
We determine the structure of the zero-set of the Nijenhuis tensor of the natural almost complex structure J1 on the total space of the bundle J(G=K; g) of Hermitian structures on the tangent spaces of any even-dimensional Riemannian symmetric space G=K of compact or non-compact type.

Twistor and Reflector Spaces for Paraquaternionic Contact Manifolds
We consider certain fiber bundles over paraquaternionic contact manifolds, called twistor and reflector spaces. We show that the twistor space carries an integrable CR structure (Cauchy–Riemann structure) and the reflector space is an integrable para-CR ...

A hyperbolic analogue of the Atiyah-Hitchin manifold
The Atiyah-Hitchin manifold is the moduli space of parity inversion symmetric charge two SU(2) monopoles in Euclidean space. Here a hyperbolic analogue is presented, by calculating the boundary metric on the moduli space of parity inversion symmetric ...

Twistor transform of all tree amplitudes in N=4 SYM theory
We perform the twistor (half-Fourier) transform of all tree n-particle superamplitudes in N=4 SYM and show that it has a transparent geometric interpretation. We find that the N^kMHV amplitude is supported on a set of (2k+1) intersecting lines in twistor

Model of massless relativistic particle with continuous spin and its twistorial description
We propose a new world-line Lagrangian model of the D= 4 massless relativistic particle with continuous spin and develop its twistorial formulation. The description uses two Penrose twistors subjected to four first class constraints.

We elaborate on various aspects of our top-down celestial holographic duality wherein the semiclassical bulk spacetime is a 4d asymptotically flat, self-dual Kähler geometry known as Burns space.
