HyperKähler torsion structures invariant by nilpotent Lie groups

Abstract: We study HKT structures on nilpotent Lie groups and on associated nilmanifolds. We exhibit three weak HKT structures on R 8 which are homogeneous with respect to extensions of Heisenberg type Lie groups. The corresponding hypercomplex structures are of a special kind, called abelian. We prove that on any 2-step nilpotent Lie group all invariant HKT structures arise from abelian hypercomplex structures. Furthermore, we use a correspondence between abelian hypercomplex structures and subspaces of sp(n) to produc… Show more

“…Complex structures on solvable and nilpotent Lie algebras have been extensively studied recently (see , [7], [8], [9], Barberis-Dotti [2] and Salamon [13] and references therein). In particular, abelian structures where considered in [8], where it is proved that abelian complex structures occur only on solvable Lie algebras, and in [2] where a characterization of solvable Lie algebras admiting abelian complex structures is given.…”
