Twistor theory and Blaschke manifolds

Annals of Global Analysis and Geometry, 1991
Using the twistor theory on quaternionic Kähler manifolds it is proved, that a Blaschke manifold of nonnegative scalar curvature, whose holonomy group is exceptional, is isometric to a projective space.

The development of ideas in twistor theory

International Journal of Theoretical Physics, 1985
We present a review of the main concepts of twistor theory. The emphasis is on the evolution of the subject form the original motivating ideas to the more recent work. In particular we discuss the physical and philosophical reasoning behind the use of the various mathematical structures.

Twistor theory and gravitational instantons

2016
The aim of this work is to understand and introduce a self-contained account of the construction of certain kind of gravitational instantons made by Hitchin in his work “Polygons and Gravitons”. Gravitational instantons are solutions of the Einstein equations which have a complete, non-singular and positive definite metric.
