We construct explicit left invariant quaternionic contact structures on Lie groups with zero and non-zero torsion, and with non-vanishing quaternionic contact conformal curvature tensor, thus showing the existence of quaternionic contact manifolds not locally quaternionic contact conformal to the quaternionic sphere. W…

We answer in the affirmative a question posed by Ivanov and Vassilev on the existence of a seven dimensional quaternionic contact manifold with closed fundamental 4-form and non-vanishing torsion endomorphism. Moreover, we show an approach to the classification of seven dimensional solvable Lie groups having an integra…

Classification results are given for (i) compact quaternionic Kähler manifolds with a cohomogeneity-one action of a semi-simple group, (ii) certain complete hyperKähler manifolds with a cohomogeneity-two action of a semi-simple group preserving each complex structure, (iii) compact 3-Sasakian manifolds which are cohomo…

This paper is devoted to the specific class of pseudoconformal mappings of quaternion and octonion variables. Normal families of functions are defined and investigated. Four criteria of a family being normal are proven. Then groups of pseudoconformal diffeomorphisms of quaternion and octonion manifolds are investigated…

We construct left invariant quaternionic contact (qc) structures on Lie groups with zero and non-zero torsion and with non-vanishing quaternionic contact conformal curvature tensor, thus showing the existence of non-flat quaternionic contact manifolds. We prove that the product of the real line with a seven dimensional…

We give an overview of some recent results in hypersymplectic and para-quaternionic Kahler geometry, and introduce the notion of split three-Sasakian manifold. In particular, we discuss the twistor spaces and Swann bundles of para-quaternionic Kahler manifolds. These are used to classify examples with a fully homogeneo…

The present paper starts with an introduction to quaternions and then defines the 3-dimmensional sphere as the set of quaternions of length one. The quaternion group induces on $\mathbb{S}^3$ a structure of noncommutative Lie group. This group is compact and the results obtained in this case are very different than tho…

In this paper we apply the hyper-Kähler quotient construction to Lie groups with a left invariant hyper-Kähler structure under the action of a closed abelian subgroup by left multiplication. This is motivated by the fact that some known hyper-Kähler metrics can be recovered in this way by considering different Lie grou…

We introduce the notion of even Clifford structures on Riemannian manifolds, a framework generalizing almost Hermitian and quaternion-Hermitian geometries. We give the complete classification of manifolds carrying parallel even Clifford structures: Kähler, quaternion-Kähler and Riemannian products of quaternion-Kähler …

We classify non-polar irreducible representations of connected compact Lie groups whose orbit space is isometric to that of a representation of a finite extension of $Sp(1)^k$ for some $k>0$. It follows that they are obtained from isotropy representations of certain quaternion-Kähler symmetric spaces by restricting to …

We classify the effective and transitive actions of a Lie group $G$ on an n-dimensional non-degenerate hyperboloid (also called real pseudo-hyperbolic space), under the assumption that $G$ is a closed, connected Lie subgroup of $SO_0(n-r,r+1)$, the connected component of the indefinite special orthogonal group. Assumin…

We construct invariant complex product (hyperparacomplex, indefinite quaternion) structures on the manifolds underlying the real noncompact simple Lie groups $SL(2m-1,\RR)$, $SU(m,m-1)$ and $SL(2m-1,\CC)^\RR$. We show that on the last two series of groups some of these structures are compatible with the biinvariant Kil…

Study of real and quaternionic Lie algebroid connections on manifolds.

Let $Γ\stackrel{i}{\hookrightarrow} L$ be a lattice in the real simple Lie group $L$. If $L$ is of rank at least 2 (respectively locally isomorphic to $Sp(n,1)$) any unbounded morphism $ρ: Γ\longrightarrow G$ into a simple real Lie group $G$ essentially extends to a Lie morphism $ρ_L: L \longrightarrow G$ (Margulis's s…

The purpose of this paper is to give presentations for projective $S$-unit groups of the Hurwitz order in Hamilton's quaternions over the rational field $\mathbb{Q}$. To our knowledge, this provides the first explicit presentations of an $S$-arithmetic lattice in a semisimple Lie group with $S$ large. In particular, we…

In this article we discuss the interaction between the geometry of a quaternion-Kahler manifold M and that of the Grassmannian G(3,g) of oriented 3-dimensional subspaces of a compact Lie algebra g. This interplay is described mainly through the moment mapping induced by the action of a group G of quaternionic isometrie…

New universal invariant operators are introduced in a class of geometries which include the quaternionic structures and their generalisations as well as 4-dimensional conformal (spin) geometries. It is shown that, in a broad sense, all invariants and invariant operators arise from these universal operators and that the…

It is shown that the compact Lie group SU(3) admits an Sp(2)Sp(1)-structure whose distinguished 2-forms $ω_1,ω_2,ω_3$ span a differential ideal. This is achieved by first reducing the structure further to a subgroup isomorphic to SO(3).

Associated with every quaternionic representation of a compact, connected Lie group there is a Seiberg-Witten equation in dimension three. The moduli spaces of solutions to these equations are typically non-compact. We construct Kuranishi models around boundary points of a partially compactified moduli space. The Haydy…

For any n>1 we determine the uniform and nonuniform lattices of the smallest covolume in the Lie group Sp(n,1). We explicitly describe them in terms of the ring of Hurwitz integers in the nonuniform case with n even, respectively, of the icosian ring in the uniform case for all n>1.
