Tetraplectic Structures, Tri-moment Maps, and Quaternionic Flag Manifolds
نویسنده
چکیده
The purpose of this note is to define a tri-moment map for certain manifolds with an Sp(1)-action. We show how this map can be used ro reduce such manifolds. The images of such maps for quaternionic flag manifolds, which are defined using the Dieudonné determinant, resemble the polytopes from the complex case.

Geometry of Four-vector Fields on Quaternionic Flag Manifolds
The purpose of this paper is to describe certain natural 4-vector fields on quaternionic flag manifolds, which geometrically determines the Bruhat cell decomposition. This structure naturally descends from the symplectic group, where it is related to the dressing action given by the Iwasawa decomposition of the general linear group over the quaternions.
متن کاملChern Numbers and the Geometry of Partial Flag Manifolds
We calculate the Chern classes and Chern numbers for the natural almost Hermitian structures of the partial flag manifolds Fn = SU(n + 2)/S(U(n) × U(1) × U(1)). For all n > 1 there are two invariant complex algebraic structures, which arise from the projectivizations of the holomorphic tangent and cotangent bundles of CP. The projectivization of the cotangent bundle is the twistor space of a Gr...
متن کاملStatistical Manifolds with almost Quaternionic Structures and Quaternionic Kähler-like Statistical Submersions
In this paper we investigate statistical manifolds with almost quaternionic structures. We define the concept of quaternionic Kähler-like statistical manifold and derive the main properties of quaternionic Kähler-like statistical submersions, extending in a new setting some previous results obtained by K. Takano concerning statistical manifolds endowed with almost complex and almost contact str...
متن کاملIntroducing Quaternionic Gerbes .
The notion of a quaternionic gerbe is presented as a new way of bundling algebraic structures over a four manifold. The structure groupoid of this fibration is described in some detail. The Euclidean conformal group RSO(4) appears naturally as a (non-commutative) monoidal structure on this groupoid. Using this monoidal structure we indicate the existence of a canonical quaternionic gerbe associ...
متن کاملDeformations of Hypercomplex Structures
Twistor theory shows that deformations of a hypercomplex manifold correspond to deformations of a canonically constructed holomorphic map from the twistor space of the hypercomplex manifold onto the complex projective line. Applying Horikawa's theory of deformations of maps, we calculate deformations of compact quotients and twists of the associated bundles of quaternionic manifolds. In particu...
