The paper examines the topology of quaternionic toric actions on manifolds.

The paper develops quaternionic toric geometry and classifies local actions.

We consider a general 4n-dimensional quaternionic Kahler geometry with a free action of the torus T^(n+1). The toric action lifts onto the Swann bundle of the quaternionic Kahler space to a tri-holomorphic action that commutes with the standard H* action on the bundle. By matching Pedersen and Poon's generalized Gibbon…

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…

For the sake of hyperk{ä}hler SYZ conjecture, finding holomorphic Lagrangian fibrations becomes an important issue. Toric hyperk{ä}hler manifolds are real dimension $4n$ non-compact hyperk{ä}hler manifolds which are quaternion analog of toric varieties. The $n$ dimensional residue circle action on it admitting a hyperk…

In the present paper we introduce and study a new notion of toric manifold in the quaternionic setting. We develop a construction with which, starting from appropriate $m$-dimensional Delzant polytopes, we obtain manifolds of real dimension $4m$, acted on by $m$ copies of the group ${\rm Sp}(1)$ of unit quaternions. Th…

Toric hyperk{ä}hler manifolds are quaternion analog of toric varieties. Bielawski pointed out that they can be glued by cotangent bundles of toric varieties. Following his idea, viewing both toric varieties and toric hyperk{ä}her manifolds as GIT quotients, we first establish geometrical criteria for the semi-stable po…

In this survey article we describe the geometry of toric hyperkähler varieties, which are hyperkähler quotients of the quaternionic vector spaces by tori. In particular, we discuss the Betti numbers, the cohomology ring, and variation of hyperkähler structures of these spaces with many improved results and proofs.

We use the quaternion Kahler reduction technique to study old and new self-dual Einstein metrics of negative scalar curvature with at least a two-dimensional isometry group, and relate the quotient construction to the hyperbolic eigenfunction Ansatz. We focus in particular on the (semi-)quaternion Kahler quotients of (…

The paper studies quaternionic structures on GKM graphs and their relation to torus actions on quaternionic projective spaces.

New submanifolds found in toric manifolds with specific actions.

We prove that any compact selfdual Einstein 4-orbifold of positive scalar curvature whose isometry group contains a 2-torus is, up to an orbifold covering, a quaternion Kaehler quotient of (k-1)-dimensional quaternionic projective space by a (k-2)-torus for some $k\geq 2$. We also obtain a topological classification in…

Study fixed-point sets of $S^{1}$-actions on quaternionic manifolds.

The study finds conditions for quaternionic structures on symmetric spaces.

We introduce the notion of a local torus action modeled on the standard representation (for simplicity, we call it a local torus action). It is a generalization of a locally standard torus action and also an underlying structure of a locally toric Lagrangian fibration. For a local torus action, we define two invariants…

We show that compact toric cosymplectic manifolds are mapping tori of equivariant symplectomorphisms of toric symplectic manifolds.

We classify isometric actions of compact Lie groups on quaternionic-Kähler projective spaces with vanishing homogeneity rank. We also show that they are not in general quaternion-coisotropic.

Kähler soliton surfaces are typically toric under generic conditions.

We study relations between quaternionic Riemannian manifolds admitting different types of symmetries. We show that any hyperKahler manifold admitting hyperKahler potential and triholomorphic action of S^1 can be constructed from another hyperKahler manifold (of lower dimention) with an action of S^1 which fixes one com…

Extending work of Bielawski-Dancer and Konno, we develop a theory of toric hyperkahler varieties, which involves toric geometry, matroid theory and convex polyhedra. The framework is a detailed study of semi-projective toric varieties, meaning GIT quotients of affine spaces by torus actions, and specifically, of Lawren…

This paper is devoted to a systematic study of the geometry of nondegenerate $\bbR^n$-actions on $n$-manifolds. The motivations for this study come from both dynamics, where these actions form a special class of integrable dynamical systems and the understanding of their nature is important for the study of other Hamil…

Study of symplectomorphisms on ruled surfaces under circle actions.

We analyze polar actions on Hermitian and quaternion-Kähler symmetric spaces of compact type. For complex integrable polar actions on Hermitian symmetric spaces of compact type we prove a reduction theorem and several corollaries concerning the geometry of these actions. The results are independent of the classificatio…

It has long been known that differential forms on complex manifolds can be decomposed under the action of the complex structure to give the Dolbeault complex. This paper presents an analogous double complex for quaternionic manifolds using the fact that the cotangent space is isomorphic to a quaternionic vector space. …

A principal toric bundle $M$ is a complex manifold equipped with a free holomorphic action of a compact complex torus $T$. Such a manifold is fibered over $M/T$, with fiber $T$. We discuss the notion of positivity in fiber bundles and define positive toric bundles. Given an irreducible complex subvariety $X\subset M$ o…

Study minimal Lagrangian tori on Kähler manifolds, answering questions about their existence and stability.

Hypertoric varieties are hyperkähler analogues of toric varieties, and are constructed as abelian hyperkähler quotients of a quaternionic affine space. Just as symplectic toric orbifolds are determined by labelled polytopes, orbifold hypertoric varieties are intimately related to the combinatorics of hyperplane arrange…

New examples of hypersurfaces found in quaternionic hyperbolic spaces.

In this paper we study the relative Chow and $K$-stability of toric manifolds in the toric sense. First, we give a criterion for relative $K$-stability and instability of toric Fano manifolds in the toric sense. The reduction of relative Chow stability on toric manifolds will be investigated using the Hibert-Mumford cr…

In [GMPS] we proved that the moment map image of a $b$-symplectic toric manifold is a convex $b$-polytope. In this paper we obtain convexity results for the more general case of non-toric hamiltonian torus actions on $b$-symplectic manifolds. The modular weights of the action on the connected components of the exceptio…

Study calculates Kulkarni limit sets for quaternionic projective groups.

Quantizes $b$-symplectic toric manifolds using $T$-modules.

Vaisman manifolds are strongly related to Kähler and Sasaki geometry. In this paper we introduce toric Vaisman structures and show that this relationship still holds in the toric context. It is known that the so-called minimal covering of a Vaisman manifold is the Riemannian cone over a Sasaki manifold. We show that if…

In \cite{btoric}, Guillemin et al. proved a Delzant-type theorem which classifies $b$-symplectic toric manifolds. More generally, in \cite{torus} they proved a similar convexity result for general Hamiltonian torus action on $b$-symplectic manifolds. In this paper, we provide a new way to construct $b$-symplectic toric…

By studying completely integrable torus actions on contact manifolds we prove a conjecture of Toth and Zelditch that toric integrable geodesic flows on tori must have flat metrics.

In these notes, after an introduction to toric Kahler geometry, we present Calabi's family of U(n)-invariant extremal Kahler metrics in symplectic action-angle coordinates and show that it actually contains, as particular cases, many interesting cohomogeneity one examples of constant scalar curvature.

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.

A theorem of Delzant states that any symplectic manifold $(M,\om)$ of dimension $2n$, equipped with an effective Hamiltonian action of the standard $n$-torus $\T^n = \R^{n}/2π\Z^n$, is a smooth projective toric variety completely determined (as a Hamiltonian $\T^n$-space) by the image of the moment map $φ:M\to\R^n$, a …

In this paper, we give a new version of the modified Futaki invariant for a test configuration associated to the soliton action on a Fano manifold. Our version will naturally come from toric test configurations defined by Donaldson for toric manifolds. As an application, we show that the modified $K$-energy is proper f…

Defines and classifies toric co-Higgs bundles on projective toric varieties.

We describe the orbit space of the action of the group $\mathrm{Sp}(2)\mathrm{Sp}(1)$ on the real Grassmann manifolds $\mathrm{Gr}_k(\mathbb{H}^2)$ in terms of certain quaternionic matrices of Moore rank not larger than $2$. We then give a complete classification of valuations on the quaternionic plane $\mathbb{H}^2$ w…

Non-exact Poisson structures found on toric varieties.

We classify, up to orbit equivalence, all cohomogeneity one actions on the hyperbolic planes over the complex, quaternionic and Cayley numbers, and on the complex hyperbolic spaces of dimension greater than two. For the quaternionic hyperbolic spaces of dimension greater than two we reduce the classification problem to…

We develop the relationship between quaternionic hyperbolic geometry and arithmetic counting or equidistribution applications, that arises from the action of arithmetic groups on quaternionic hyperbolic spaces, especially in dimension $2$. We prove a Mertens counting formula for the rational points over a definite quat…

The geodesic flow of a Riemannian metric on a compact manifold $Q$ is said to be toric integrable if it is completely integrable and the first integrals of motion generate a homogeneous torus action on the punctured cotangent bundle $T^*Q\setminus{Q}$. If the geodesic flow is toric integrable, the cosphere bundle admit…
