Plurisubharmonic functions on hypercomplex manifolds and HKT-geometry

Abstract: A hypercomplex manifold is a manifold equipped with a triple of complex structures I, J, K satisfying the quaternionic relations. We define a quaternionic analogue of plurisubharmonic functions on hypercomplex manifolds, and interpret these functions geometrically as potentials of HKT (hyperkähler with torsion) metrics. We prove a quaternionic analogue of A.D. Aleksandrov and Chern-Levine-Nirenberg theorems.

“…(The ∂∂ J -lemma cf. [4]) A form Ω ∈ Ω 2,0 I,R (M ) satisfies ∂Ω = 0 if and only if it can be locally represented as Ω = ∂∂ J f for a function f ∈ C ∞ (M, R).…”

“…For such manifolds, quaternionic plurisubharmonic functions can be defined, and a version of the Aleksandrov and Chern-Levine-Nirenberg theorems can be proved. Next, it turns out that the C ∞ -smooth strictly plurisubharmonic functions on hypercomplex manifolds admit a geometric interpretation as (local) potentials of HKT-metrics; this was also shown in [8]. Roughly, an HKT-metric on a hypercomplex manifold is an SU (2)-invariant Riemannian metric satisfying certain first order differential equations.…”

“…In §6 we describe generalizations of some of the definitions and results on quaternionic plurisubharmonic functions to the so-called hypercomplex manifolds; these generalizations were obtained by Verbitsky and the author in [8]. This class of manifolds contains, for instance, the flat spaces H n and the hyper-Kähler manifolds.…”
