Transformations of locally conformally Kähler manifolds

We consider several transformation groups of a locally conformally Kähler manifold and discuss their inter-relations. Among other results, we prove that all conformal vector fields on a compact Vaisman manifold which is neither locally conformally hyperkähler nor a diagonal Hopf manifold are Killing, holomorphic and that all affine vector fields with respect to the minimal Weyl connection of a locally conformally Kähler manifold which is neither Weyl-reducible nor locally conformally hyperkähler are holomorphic and conformal.     

Locally conformally Hermitian-flat manifolds

We introduce the notion of a locally conformally Hermitian-flat manifold and derive a necessary and sufficient condition for a Hermitian manifold to be locally conformally Hermitian-flat. In addition, we construct a family of examples.

Compact complex manifolds bimeromorphic to locally conformally Kähler manifolds

We study compact complex manifolds bimeromorphic to locally conformally Kähler (LCK) manifolds. This is an analogy of studying a compact complex manifold bimeromorphic to a Kähler manifold. We give a negative answer for a question of Ornea, Verbitsky, Vuletescu by showing that there exists no LCK current on blow ups along a submanifold (dim \(\ge 1\)) of Vaisman manifolds. We show that a compact complex manifold with LCK currents satisfying a certain condition can be modified to an LCK manifold. Based on this fact, we define a compact complex manifold with a modification from an LCK manifold as a locally conformally class C (LC class C) manifold. We give examples of LC class C manifolds that are not LCK manifolds. Finally, we show that all LC class C manifolds are locally conformally balanced manifolds.     

On toric locally conformally Kähler manifolds

We study compact toric strict locally conformally Kähler manifolds. We show that the Kodaira dimension of the underlying complex manifold is \(-\infty \), and that the only compact complex surfaces admitting toric strict locally conformally Kähler metrics are the diagonal Hopf surfaces. We also show that every toric Vaisman manifold has lcK rank 1 and is isomorphic to the mapping torus of an automorphism of a toric compact Sasakian manifold.     

On conformally flat Lorentz parabolic manifolds

We introduce conformally flat Fefferman-Lorentz manifold of parabolic type as a special class of Lorentz parabolic manifolds. It is a smooth (2n+2)-manifold locally modeled on (Û(n+1, 1), S ^2n+1,1). As the terminology suggests, when a Fefferman-Lorentz manifold M is conformally flat, M is a Fefferman-Lorentz manifold of parabolic type. We shall discuss which compact manifolds occur as a conformally flat Fefferman-Lorentz manifold of parabolic type.     

Locally conformal Kähler manifolds with potential

A locally conformally Kähler (LCK) manifold M is one which is covered by a Kähler manifold ${\widetilde M}A locally conformally K?hler (LCK) manifold M is one which is covered by a K?hler manifold [(M)\tilde]{\widetilde M} with the deck transformation group acting conformally on [(M)\tilde]{\widetilde M}. If M admits a holomorphic flow, acting on [(M)\tilde]{\widetilde M} conformally, it is called a Vaisman manifold. Neither the class of LCK manifolds nor that of Vaisman manifolds is stable under small deformations. We define a new class of LCK-manifolds, called LCK manifolds with potential, which is closed under small deformations. All Vaisman manifolds are LCK with potential. We show that an LCK-manifold with potential admits a covering which can be compactified to a Stein variety by adding one point. This is used to show that any LCK manifold M with potential, dim M ≥ 3, can be embedded into a Hopf manifold, thus improving similar results for Vaisman manifolds Ornea and Verbitsky (Math Ann 332:121–143, 2005).     

Weak and smooth solutions for a fractional Yamabe flow: The case of general compact and locally conformally flat manifolds

As a counterpart of the classical Yamabe problem, a fractional Yamabe flow has been introduced by Jin and Xiong (2014) on the sphere. Here we pursue its study in the context of general compact smooth manifolds with positive fractional curvature. First, we prove that the flow is locally well posed in the weak sense on any compact manifold. If the manifold is locally conformally flat with positive Yamabe invariant, we also prove that the flow is smooth and converges to a constant fractional curvature metric. We provide different proofs using extension properties introduced by Chang and González (2011) for the conformally covariant fractional order operators.

On contact strongly pseudo-convex integrableCR manifolds

It is shown that a locally symmetric contact strongly pseudo-convex integrableCR manifold of dimension greater than 3 and other than 7 is locally isometric to a unit sphere or the Riemannian product of an (n + 1)-dimensional Euclidean space and a sphere. A conformally flat contact strongly pseudo-convex integrableCR manifold is locally isometric to a unit sphere, provided the characteristic vector field is an eigenvector of the Ricci tensor at each point.     

An integral invariant from the view point of locally conformally Kähler geometry

In this article we study an integral invariant which obstructs the existence on a compact complex manifold of a volume form with the determinant of its Ricci form proportional to itself, in particular obstructs the existence of a Kähler-Einstein metric, and has been studied since 1980s. We study this invariant from the view point of locally conformally Kähler geometry. We first see that we can define an integral invariant for coverings of compact complex manifolds with automorphic volume forms. This situation typically occurs for locally conformally Kähler manifolds. Secondly, we see that this invariant coincides with the former one. We also show that the invariant vanishes for any compact Vaisman manifold.

A note on four-dimensional (anti-)self-dual quasi-Einstein manifolds

In this short note we prove that any complete four-dimensional anti-self-dual (or self-dual) quasi-Einstein manifold is either Einstein or locally conformally flat. This generalizes a recent result of X. Chen and Y. Wang.     

Generalized quasi-Einstein manifolds with harmonic Weyl tensor

In this paper we introduce the notion of generalized quasi-Einstein manifold that generalizes the concepts of Ricci soliton, Ricci almost soliton and quasi-Einstein manifolds. We prove that a complete generalized quasi-Einstein manifold with harmonic Weyl tensor and with zero radial Weyl curvature is locally a warped product with (n ? 1)-dimensional Einstein fibers. In particular, this implies a local characterization for locally conformally flat gradient Ricci almost solitons, similar to that proved for gradient Ricci solitons.

Holomorphic submersions of locally conformally Kähler manifolds

A locally conformally Kähler (LCK) manifold is a complex manifold covered by a Kähler manifold, with the covering group acting by homotheties. We show that if such a compact manifold \(X\) admits a holomorphic submersion with positive-dimensional fibers at least one of which is of Kähler type, then \(X\) is globally conformally Kähler or biholomorphic, up to finite covers, to a small deformation of a Vaisman manifold (i.e., a mapping torus over a circle, with Sasakian fiber). As a consequence, we show that the product of a compact non-Kähler LCK and a compact Kähler manifold cannot carry a LCK metric.
