An operator I on a real Lie algebra g is called a complex structure operator if I 2 = − Id and the √ −1-eigenspace g 1,0 is a Lie subalgebra in the complexification of g. A hypercomplex structure on a Lie algebra g is a triple of complex structures I, J and K on g satisfying the quaternionic relations. We call a hypercomplex nilpotent Lie algebra H-solvable if there exists a sequence of H-invariant subalgebrasWe give examples of H-solvable hypercomplex structures on a nilpotent Lie algebra and conjecture that all hypercomplex structures on nilpotent Lie algebras are H-solvable. Let (N, I, J, K) be a compact hypercomplex nilmanifold associated to an H-solvable hypercomplex Lie algebra. We prove that, for a general complex structure L induced by quaternions, there are no complex curves in a complex manifold (N, L).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
