Generalizing a result of Berndtsson and Charpentier, we provide sufficient conditions for L2 Sobolev regularity of the Bergman projection acting on L2 sections of a holomorphic line bundle restricted to a relatively compact domain with Lipschitz boundary in a Hermitian manifold. We provide examples to show that our methods work for domains in Hopf manifolds endowed with a suitable Hermitian metric.

A Mall bundle on a Hopf manifold H=ℂ n ∖0 ℤ is a holomorphic vector bundle whose pullback to ℂ n ∖0 is trivial. We define resonant and non-resonant Mall bundles, generalizing the notion of the resonance in ODE, and prove that a non-resonant Mall bundle always admits a flat holomorphic connection. We use this observation to prove a version of Poincaré–Dulac linearization theorem, showing that any non-resonant invertible holomorphic contraction of ℂ n is linear in appropriate holomorphic coordinates. We define the notion of resonance in Hopf manifolds, and show that all non-resonant Hopf manifolds are linear; previously, this result was obtained by Kodaira using the Poincaré–Dulac theorem.

En este artículo, investigamos el problema de la existencia de foliaciones holomorfas en variedades de Hopf de dimensión 3, con un enfoque particular en las variedades de tipo excepcional. Las variedades de Hopf, al ser variedades complejas compactas y no kählerianas, ofrecen un entorno fértil para el análisis de fenómenos no triviales en el estudio de foliaciones holomorfas. En particular, estas variedades presentan estructuras geométricas que permiten la aparición de comportamientos dinámicos complejos, lo que las convierte en un caso de especial interés.

Algebraic cones of LCK manifolds with potential

A locally conformally Kähler (LCK) manifold is a complex manifold M M which has a Kähler structure on its cover, such that the deck transform group acts on it by homotheties. Assume that the Kähler form is exact on the minimal Kähler cover of M M . We prove that any bimeromorphic map M ′ → M M’\rightarrow M is in fact holomorphic; in other words, M M has a unique minimal model. This can be applied to a wide class of LCK manifolds, such as the Hopf manifolds, their complex submanifolds and to OT manifolds.

Automorphisms of Hopf manifolds

A Hopf manifold is a quotient of $C^n\backslash 0$ by the cyclic group generated by a holomorphic contraction. Hopf manifolds are diffeomorphic to $S^1\times S^{2n-1}$ and hence do not admit Kahler metrics. It is known that Hopf manifolds defined by linear contractions (called linear Hopf manifolds) have locally conformally Kahler (LCK) metrics. In this paper we prove that the Hopf manifolds defined by non-linear holomorphic contractions admit holomorphic embeddings into linear Hopf manifolds, and, moreover they admit LCK metrics.

The holonomy of the Bismut connection on Vaisman manifolds is studied. We prove that if $$M^{2n}$$ is endowed with a Vaisman structure, then the holonomy group of the Bismut connection is contained in $${\text {U}}(n-1)$$ . We compute explicitly this group for particular types of manifolds, namely, solvmanifolds and some classical Hopf manifolds.

We investigate the geometry of Hermitian manifolds endowed with a compact Lie group action by holomorphic isometries with principal orbits of codimension one. In particular, we focus on a special class of these manifolds constructed by following Bérard-Bergery which includes, among the others, the holomorphic line bundles on $\mathbb {C}\mathbb {P}^{m-1}$, the linear Hopf manifolds and the Hirzebruch surfaces. We characterize their invariant special Hermitian metrics, such as balanced, Kähler-like, pluriclosed, locally conformally Kähler, Vaisman and Gauduchon. Furthermore, we construct new examples of cohomogeneity one Hermitian metrics solving the second-Chern–Einstein equation and the constant Chern-scalar curvature equation.

Let $(M,h)$ be a Hermitian manifold and $\psi$ a smooth weight function on $M$. The $\partial$-complex on weighted Bergman spaces $A^2_{(p,0)}(M,h, e^{-\psi})$ of holomorphic $(p,0)$-forms was recently studied in [[10] and [9]. It was shown that if $h$ is K\"ahler and a suitable density condition holds, the $\partial$-complex exhibits an interesting holomorphicity/duality property when $(\bar\partial\psi)^{\sharp}$ is holomorphic (i.e., when the real gradient field $\mathrm{grad}_h\psi$ is a real holomorphic vector field). For general Hermitian metrics this property does not hold without the holomorphicity of the torsion tensor $T_p{}^{rs}$. In this paper, we investigate the existence of real-valued weight functions with real holomorphic gradient fields on K\"ahler and conformally K\"ahler manifolds and their relationship to the $\partial$-complex on weighted Bergman spaces. For K\"ahler metrics with multi-radial potential functions on $\mathbb C^n$ we determine all multi-radial weight functions with real holomorphic gradient fields. For conformally K\"ahler metrics on complex space forms we first identify the metrics having holomorphic torsion leading to several interesting examples such as the Hopf manifold $\mathbb{S}^{2n-1} \times \mathbb{S}^1$, and the "half" hyperbolic metric on the unit ball. For some of these metrics, we further determine weight functions $\psi$ with real holomorphic gradient fields. They provide a wealth of triples $(M,h,e^{-\psi})$ of Hermitian non-K\"ahler manifolds with weights for which the $\partial$-complex exhibits the aforementioned holomorphicity/duality property. Among these examples, we study in detail the $\partial$-complex on the unit ball with the half hyperbolic metric and derive a new estimate for the $\partial$-equation.

Griffiths positivity for Bismut curvature and its behaviour along Hermitian curvature flows

We study the semi-Riemannian geometry of the foliation F of an indefinite locally conformal Kähler (l.c.K.) manifold M, given by the Pfaffian equation ω=0, provided that ∇ω=0 and c=∥ω∥≠0 (ω is the Lee form of M). If M is conformally flat then every leaf of F is shown to be a totally geodesic semi-Riemannian hypersurface in M, and a semi-Riemannian space form of sectional curvature c/4, carrying an indefinite c-Sasakian structure. As a corollary of the result together with a semi-Riemannian version of the de Rham decomposition theorem any geodesically complete, conformally flat, indefinite Vaisman manifold of index 2s, 0<s<n, is locally biholomorphically homothetic to an indefinite complex Hopf manifold CHsn(λ), 0<λ<1, equipped with the indefinite Boothby metric gs,n.

We classify holomorphic Pfaff systems (possibly non locally decomposable) on certain Hopf manifolds. As consequence, we prove some integrability results. We also prove that any holomorphic distribution on a general (non-resonance) Hopf manifold is integrable.

We define a partition of the space of projectively flat metrics in three classes according to the sign of the Chern scalar curvature; we prove that the class of negative projectively flat metrics is empty, and that the class of positive projectively flat metrics consists precisely of locally conformally flat-Kähler metrics on Hopf manifolds, explicitly characterized by Vaisman. Finally, we review the properties of zero projectively flat metrics. As applications, we refine a list of possible projectively flat metrics by Li, Yau, and Zheng; moreover we prove that projectively flat astheno-Kähler metrics are in fact Kähler and globally conformally flat.

Let X be a Hopf manifold with non-Abelian fundamental group and E be a holomorphic vector bundle over X, with trivial pull-back to ℂn − {0}. The authors show that there exists a line bundle L over X such that E ⊗ L has a nowhere vanishing section. It is proved that in case dim(X) ≥ 3, π*(E) is trivial if and only if E is filtrable by vector bundles. With the structure theorem, the authors get the cohomology dimension of holomorphic bundle E over X with trivial pull-back and the vanishing of Chern class of E.

In this note, we introduce a new type of positivity condition for the curvature of a Hermitian manifold, which generalizes the notion of nonnegative quadratic orthogonal bisectional curvature to the non-Kahler case. We derive a Bochner formula for closed (1, 1)-forms from which this condition appears naturally and prove that if a Hermitian manifold satisfies our positivity condition, then any class $$\alpha \in H^{1, 1}_{BC}(X)$$ can be represented by a closed (1, 1)-form which is parallel with respect to the Bismut connection. Lastly, we show that such a curvature positivity condition holds on certain generalized Hopf manifolds and on certain Vaisman manifolds.

In this study, we investigate generalized quasi-Einstein normal metric contact pair manifolds. Initially, we deal with the elementary properties and existence of generalized quasi-Einstein normal metric contact pair manifolds. Later, we explore the generalized quasi-constant curvature of normal metric contact pair manifolds. It is proved that a normal metric contact pair manifold with generalized quasi-constant curvature is a generalized quasi-Einstein manifold. Normal metric contact pair manifolds satisfying cyclic parallel Ricci tensor and the Codazzi type of Ricci tensor are considered, and further prove that a generalized quasi-Einstein normal metric contact pair manifold does not satisfy Codazzi type of Ricci tensor. Finally, we characterize normal metric contact pair manifolds satisfying certain curvature conditions related to M-projective, conformal, and concircular curvature tensors. We show that a normal metric contact pair manifold with generalized quasi-constant curvature is locally isometric to the Hopf manifold S2n+1(1)×S1.

We give a complete classification of holomorphic endomorphisms of Hopf manifolds in dimensions two and three. In particular, we show that these endomorphisms are automorphisms except for the diagonal class, in which case they are quasi-homogeneous.

We consider holomorphic twists of arbitrary supersymmetric theories in four dimensions. Working in the BV formalism, we rederive classical results characterizing the holomorphic twist of chiral and vector supermultiplets, computing the twist explicitly as a family over the space of nilpotent supercharges in minimal supersymmetry. The BV formalism allows one to work with or without auxiliary fields, according to preference; for chiral superfields, we show that the result of the twist is an identical BV theory, the holomorphic beta gamma system with superpotential, independent of whether or not auxiliary fields are included. We compute the character of local operators in this holomorphic theory, demonstrating agreement of the free local operators with the usual index of free fields. The local operators with superpotential are computed via a spectral sequence and are shown to agree with functions on a formal mapping space into the derived critical locus of the superpotential. We consider the holomorphic theory on various geometries, including Hopf manifolds and products of arbitrary pairs of Riemann surfaces, and offer some general remarks on dimensional reductions of holomorphic theories along the (n-1)-sphere to topological quantum mechanics. We also study an infinite-dimensional enhancement of the flavor symmetry in this example, to a recently studied central extension of the derived holomorphic functions with values in the original Lie algebra, that generalizes the familiar Kac–Moody enhancement in two-dimensional chiral theories.

An LCK manifold with potential is a compact quotient M of a Kahler manifold X equipped with a positive plurisubharmonic function f, such that the monodromy group acts on $X$ by holomorphic homotheties and maps f to a function proportional to f. It is known that M admits an LCK potential if and only if it can be holomorphically embedded to a Hopf manifold. We prove that any non-Vaisman LCK manifold with potential contains a complex surface with normalization biholomorphic to a Hopf surface H. Moreover, H can be chosen non-diagonal, hence, also not admitting a Vaisman structure.
