Selfdual Einstein hermitian four-manifolds

Vestislav Apostolov, Paul Gauduchon (2002)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

We provide a local classification of selfdual Einstein riemannian four-manifolds admitting a positively oriented hermitian structure and characterize those which carry a hyperhermitian, non-hyperkähler structure compatible with the negative orientation. We show that selfdual Einstein 4-manifolds obtained as quaternionic quotients of P 2 and H 2 are hermitian.

Impossible Einstein-Weyl geometries

Eastwood, Michael

Similarity:

In the joint paper of the author with [J. Reine Angew. Math. 491, 183-198 (1997; Zbl 0876.53029)] they showed all local solutions of the Einstein-Weyl equations in three dimensions, where the background metric is homogeneous with unimodular isometry group. In particular, they proved that there are no solutions with Nil or Sol as background metric. In this note, these two special cases are presented.

Einstein-Weyl structures on lightlike hypersurfaces

Cyriaque Atindogbe, Lionel Bérard-Bergery, Carlos Ogouyandjou (2013)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We study Weyl structures on lightlike hypersurfaces endowed with a conformal structure of certain type and specific screen distribution: the Weyl screen structures. We investigate various differential geometric properties of Einstein-Weyl screen structures on lightlike hypersurfaces and show that, for ambient Lorentzian space ℝ1n+2 and a totally umbilical screen foliation, there is a strong interplay with the induced (Riemannian) Weyl-structure on the leaves.
