Study complex structures of hyperkähler manifolds with infinite type.

Study of harmonic maps and instantons in 4D.

We provide an affirmative answer to a question posed by Tod \cite{Tod:1995b}, and construct all four-dimensional Kahler metrics with vanishing scalar curvature which are invariant under the conformal action of Bianchi V group. The construction is based on the combination of twistor theory and the isomonodromic problem …

We determine the group of conformal automorphisms of the self-dual metrics on n#CP^2 due to LeBrun for n>2, and Poon for n=2. These metrics arise from an ansatz involving a circle bundle over hyperbolic three-space H^3 minus a finite number of points, called monopole points. We show that for n>2 connected sums, any con…

In this paper we investigate the balanced condition (in the sense of Donaldson) and the existence of an Englis expansion for the LeBrun's metrics on $C^2$. Our first result shows that a LeBrun's metric on $C^2$ is never balanced unless it is the flat metric. The second one shows that an Englis expansion of the Rawnsley…

We show that, on the connected sum of complex projective planes, any toric LeBrun metric can be identified with a Joyce metric admitting a semi-free circle action through an explicit conformal equivalence. A crucial ingredient of the proof is an explicit connection form for toric LeBrun metrics.

We investigate various limits of the twistor spaces associated to the self-dual metrics on n CP ^2, the connected sum of the complex projective planes, constructed by C. LeBrun. In particular, we explicitly present the following 3 kinds of degenerations whose limits of the metrics are: (a) LeBrun metrics on (n-1) CP ^2…

We investigate U(1)-equivariant deformations of C. LeBrun's self-dual metric with torus action. We explicitly determine all U(1)-subgroups of the torus for which one can obtain U(1)-equivariant deformation that do not preserve semi-free U(1)-action. This gives many new self-dual metrics with U(1)-action which are not c…

The LeBrun-Mason twistor correspondences for $S^1$-invariant self-dual Zollfrei metrics are explicitly established. We give explicit formulas for the general solutions of the wave equation and the monopole equation on the de Sitter three-space under the assumption for the tameness at infinity by using Radon-type integr…

Yamabe invariants of certain non-Kähler surfaces are zero.

In this article we investigate deformations of a scalar-flat Kähler metric on the total space of complex line bundles over CP^1 constructed by C. LeBrun. In particular, we find that the metric is included in a one-dimensional family of such metrics on the four-manifold, where the complex structure in the deformation is…

In the complex-Riemannian framework we show that a conformal manifold containing a compact, simply-connected, null-geodesic is conformally flat. In dimension 3 we use the LeBrun correspondence, that views a conformal 3-manifold as the conformal infinity of a selfdual four-manifolds. We also find a relation between the …

New ansatz for generalized Kähler surfaces derived from hyperKähler ansatz.

Expressive quantum circuits are harder to train due to flatter cost landscapes.

Classifies self-dual almost-Kähler 4-manifolds, proving uniqueness up to rescaling.

We construct infinitely many Einstein-Weyl structures on $S^2 \times R$ of signature (-++) which is sufficiently close to the model case of constant curvature, and whose space-like geodesics are all closed. Such structures are obtained from small perturbations of the diagonal of $CP^1 \times CP^1$ using the method of L…

We describe a quaternionic-based Ansatz generalizing the Gibbons-Hawking Ansatz to a class of hyperkähler metrics with hidden symmetries. We then apply it to obtain explicit expressions for gravitational instanton metrics of type $D_k$.

An index theorem for the anti-self-dual deformation complex on anti-self-dual orbifolds with singularities conjugate to ADE-type is proved. In 1988, Claude Lebrun gave examples of scalar-flat Kähler ALE metrics with negative mass, on the total space of the bundle $\mathcal{O}(-n)$ over $S^2$. A corollary of this index …

We give bounds on the first non-zero eigenvalue of the scalar Laplacian for both the Page and the Chen-LeBrun-Weber Einstein metrics. One notable feature is that these bounds are obtained without explicit knowledge of the metrics or numerical approximation to them. Our method also allows the calculation of the invarian…

A Zoll metric is a Riemannian metric whose geodesics are all circles of equal length. Via the twistor correspondence of LeBrun and Mason, a Zoll metric on the 2 dimensional sphere corresponds to a family of holomorphic disks in CP_2 with boundary in a totally real submanifold P. In this paper, we show that for a fixed …

A new approach to quantum machine learning circuits reduces training difficulties.

Proves infinitesimal rigidity of Hermitian gravitational instantons.

Deep QMC ansatzes improve variational QMC accuracy.

It was observed by Tod and later by Dunajski and Tod that the Boyer-Finley (BF) and the dispersionless Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (dKP) equations possess solutions whose level surfaces are central quadrics in the space of independent variables (the so-called central quadric ansatz). It was demonstrated that generic solutio…

A homogeneous Gibbons-Hawking ansatz is described, leading to 4-dimensional hyperkahler metrics with homotheties. In combination with Blaschke products on the unit disc in the complex plane, this ansatz allows one to construct infinite-dimensional families of such hyperkahler metrics that are, in a suitable sense, comp…

MBQC linked to CQCA, yielding efficient Ansätze.

We show that a complete simply-connected hyperkaehler 4-manifold with an isometric triholomorphic circle action is obtained from the Gibbons-Hawking ansatz with some suitable harmonic function.

Unified CR-twistor spaces for $G_2$ and $Spin(7)$ structures.

We introduce a new class of perturbations of the Seiberg-Witten equations. Our perturbations offer flexibility in the way the Seiberg-Witten invariants are constructed and also shed a new light to LeBrun's curvature inequalities.

Develops methods to solve complex and real Hessian equations.

We discuss the Ricci-flat `model metrics' on $\mathbb{C}^2$ with cone singularities along the conic $\{zw=1\}$ constructed by Donaldson using the Gibbons-Hawking ansatz over wedges in $\mathbb{R}^3$. In particular we describe their asymptotic behavior at infinity and compute their energies.

Invariant Kähler metrics on line bundles are derived from the Calabi ansatz.

Improved Least-Squares Monte Carlo with finite-difference ansatz.

We show the existence of hyperbolic 4-manifolds with vanishing Seiberg-Witten invariants, addressing a conjecture of Claude LeBrun. This is achieved by showing, using results in geometric and arithmetic group theory, that certain hyperbolic 4-manifolds contain L-spaces as hypersurfaces.

The abstract discusses special Lagrangians and their flow, proving conjectures and observing related phenomena.

The quadric ansatz solves dKP equations in arbitrary dimensions, leading to Einstein-Weyl structures.

In this note, we investigate pluri-half-anticanonical systems on the so called LeBrun twistor spaces. We determine its dimension, the base locus, structure of the associated rational map, and also structure of general members, in precise form. In particular, we show that if n>2 and m>1, the base locus of the system |mK…

We prove rigidity and vanishing theorems for several holomorphic Euler characteristics on complex contact manifolds admitting holomorphic circle actions preserving the contact structure. Such vanishings are reminiscent of those of LeBrun and Salamon on Fano contact manifolds but under a symmetry assumption instead of a…

We give a dynamical description, in terms of a Weil-type zeta function, to the holomorphic torsion with coefficients for certain compact Hermitian locally symmetric manifolds, whose connected group G of isometries of the universal cover has only one conjugacy class of cuspidal maximal parabolic subgroup and satisfies a…

The paper connects complex contact structures to specific types of almost contact 3-structures.

This article provides an explicit construction for a family of singular instantons on S^4 S^2 with arbitrary real holonomy parameter α. This family includes the original α= 1/4, c_2 = 3/2 solution discovered by P. Forgacs, Z. Horvath, and L. Palla, and our approach is modeled on that of their 1981 paper. Our primary to…

An ansatz of Calabi allows construction of Kahler metrics in an Hermitian disk bundle over a Kahler manifold. We attempt to give a definitive treatment of this ansatz, with the following results: We give curvature conditions on the disk bundle that guarantee existence of families of complete Kahler metrics of constant …

We study the convergence behavior of the general inverse $σ_k$-flow on Kähler manifolds with initial metrics satisfying the Calabi Ansatz. The limiting metrics can be either smooth or singular. In the latter case, interesting conic singularities along negatively self-intersected sub-varieties are formed as a result of …
