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…

We prove the non-existence of Vaisman metrics on some solvmanifolds with left-invariant complex structures. By this theorem, we show that Oeljeklaus-Toma manifolds does not admit Vaisman metrics.

A Vaisman manifold is a special kind of locally conformally Kaehler manifold, which is closely related to a Sasaki manifold. In this paper we show a basic structure theorem of simply connected homogeneous Sasaki and Vaisman manifods of unimodular Lie groups, up to holomorphic isometry. For the case of unimodular Lie gr…

A locally conformally Kaehler (l.c.K.) manifold is a complex manifold admitting a Kaehler covering $\tilde M$, with each deck transformation acting by Kaehler homotheties. A compact l.c.K. manifold is Vaisman if it admits a holomorphic flow acting by non-trivial homotheties on $\tilde M$. We prove a structure theorem f…

We prove the non-existence of Vaisman metrics on some solvmanifolds with a left-invariant complex structure. By this theorem, we show that every Oeljeklaus-Toma manifold with $(s,1)$ admits no Vaisman metric.

We give a complete description of all locally conformally Kähler structures with holomorphic Lee vector field on a compact complex manifold of Vaisman type. This provides in particular examples of such structures whose Lee vector field is not homothetic to the Lee vector field of a Vaisman structure. More generally, dr…

Sasakian manifolds are odd-dimensional counterpart to Kahler manifolds. They can be defined as contact manifolds equipped with an invariant Kahler structure on their symplectic cone. The quotient of this cone by the homothety action is a complex manifold called Vaisman. We study harmonic forms and Hodge decomposition o…

Vaisman's theorem extended to locally reducible Kähler spaces.

A locally conformally Kaehler (LCK) manifold is a complex manifold admitting a Kaehler covering M, with monodromy acting on M by Kaehler homotheties. A compact LCK manifold is Vaisman if it admits a holomorphic flow acting by non-trivial homotheties on M. We prove a non-Kaehler analogue of Kodaira embedding theorem: an…

We extend to metric compact mapping tori a splitting result for coKähler manifolds. In particular, we prove that a compact Vaisman manifold is finitely covered by the product of a Sasakian manifold and a circle.

A locally conformally Kähler (LCK) manifold $M$ is one which is covered by a Kähler manifold $\tilde M$ with the deck transform group acting conformally on $\tilde M$. If $M$ admits a holomorphic flow, acting on $\tilde M$ conformally, it is called a Vaisman manifold. Neither the class of LCK manifolds nor that of Vais…

A locally conformally Kähler (LCK) manifold is a complex manifold whose universal cover is Kähler with monodromy group acting on the universal cover by holomorphic homotheties. A Vaisman manifold $M$ is a compact non-Kähler LCK manifold admitting an action of a holomorphic conformal flow lifting to an action on a Kähle…

In this paper we investigate the spectral sequence associated to a Riemannian foliation which arises naturally on a Vaisman manifold. Using the Betti numbers of the underlying manifold we establish a lower bound for the dimension of some terms of this cohomological object. This way we obtain cohomological obstructions …

Study shows compact Vaisman manifolds cannot have certain special Hermitian metrics.

We provide models that are as close as possible to being formal for a large class of compact manifolds that admit a transversely Kaehler structure, including Vaisman and quasi-Sasakian manifolds. As an application we are able to classify the corresponding nilmanifolds.

Study on non-Kähler Calabi-Yau manifolds and their geometric structures.

The metric algebroid proposed by Vaisman (the Vaisman algebroid) governs the gauge symmetry algebra generated by the C-bracket in double field theory (DFT). We show that the Vaisman algebroid is obtained by an analogue of the Drinfel'd double of Lie algebroids. Based on a geometric realization of doubled space-time as …

We prove that a compact lcK manifold with holomorphic Lee vector field is Vaisman provided that either the Lee field has constant norm or the metric is Gauduchon (i.e., the Lee field is divergence-free). We also give examples of compact lcK manifolds with holomorphic Lee vector field which are not Vaisman.

We establish a Hard Lefschetz Theorem for the de Rham cohomology of compact Vaisman manifolds. A similar result is proved for the basic cohomology with respect to the Lee vector field. Motivated by these results, we introduce the notions of a Lefschetz and of a basic Lefschetz locally conformal symplectic (l.c.s.) mani…

We define reduction of locally conformal Kaehler manifolds, considered as conformal Hermitian manifolds, and we show its equivalence with an unpublished construction given by Biquard and Gauduchon. We show the compatibility between this reduction and Kaehler reduction of the universal cover. By a recent result of Kamis…

A locally conformally Kahler manifold is a Hermitian manifold $(M,I,ω)$ satisfying $dω=θ\wedge ω$, where $θ$ is a closed 1-form, called the Lee form of $M$. It is called pluricanonical if $\nablaθ$ is of Hodge type $(2,0)+(0,2)$, where $\nabla$ is the Levi-Civita connection, and Vaisman if $\nablaθ=0$. We show that a c…

We prove that any compact homogeneous locally conformally Kähler manifold has parallel Lee form.

The pluriclosed flow preserves Vaisman condition on compact complex surfaces.

We consider locally conformal Kaehler geometry as an equivariant (homothetic) Kaehler geometry: a locally conformal Kaehler manifold is, up to equivalence, a pair (K,Γ) where K is a Kaehler manifold and Γa discrete Lie group of biholomorphic homotheties acting freely and properly discontinuously. We define a new invari…

An LCK manifold with potential is a compact quotient M of a Kahler manifold X equipped with a positive plurisubharmonic function f, such that the monodromy group acts on $X$ by holomorphic homotheties and maps f to a function proportional to f. It is known that M admits an LCK potential if and only if it can be holomor…

We characterize unimodular solvable Lie algebras with Vaisman structures in terms of Kähler flat Lie algebras equipped with a suitable derivation. Using this characterization we obtain algebraic restrictions for the existence of Vaisman structures and we establish some relations with other geometric notions, such as Sa…

Locally conformally Kahler (LCK) manifolds with potential are those which admit a Kahler covering with a proper, automorphic Kaehler potential. Existence of a potential can be characterized cohomologically as a vanishing of a certain cohomology class, called the Bott-Chern class. Compact LCK manifolds with potential ar…

New theorem on Lee classes for LCK manifolds with potential.

We discuss a correspondence between certain contact pairs on the one hand, and certain locally conformally symplectic forms on the other. In particular, we characterize these structures through suspensions of contactomorphisms. If the contact pair is endowed with a normal metric, then the corresponding lcs form is loca…
