On Ricci flat supermanifolds
We study the Ricci flatness condition on generic supermanifolds. It has been found recently that when the fermionic complex dimension of the supermanifold is one the vanishing of the super-Ricci curvature implies the bosonic submanifold has vanishing scalar curvature. We prove that this phenomena is only restricted to fermionic complex dimension one. Further we conjecture that for complex fermi...
متن کاملRicci-flat supertwistor spaces
We show that supertwistor spaces constructed as a Kähler quotient of a hyperkähler cone (HKC) with equal numbers of bosonic and fermionic coordinates are Ricci-flat, and hence, Calabi-Yau. We study deformations of the supertwistor space induced from deformations of the HKC. We also discuss general infinitesimal deformations that preserve Ricci-flatness.
متن کاملNumerical Ricci - flat metrics on K 3
We develop numerical algorithms for solving the Einstein equation on Calabi-Yau manifolds at arbitrary values of their complex structure and Kähler parameters. We show that Kähler geometry can be exploited for significant gains in computational efficiency. As a proof of principle, we apply our methods to a one-parameter family of K3 surfaces constructed as blow-ups of the T /Z2 orbifold with ma...
متن کاملTwistor Theory
Twistor theory began with the work of Roger Penrose who introduced the powerful techniques of complex algebraic geometry into general relativity. Loosely speaking it is the use of complex analytic methods to solve problems in real differential geometry. In most cases the emphasis is on the geometry of the problem rather than the analysis. My lectures are not designed to be a survey of all of tw...
متن کاملRicci-Flat Holonomy: a Classification
The reductive holonomy algebras for a torsion-free affine connection are analysed, with the goal of establishing which ones can correspond to a Ricci-flat connection with the same properties. Various families of holonomies are eliminated through different algebraic means, and examples are constructed (in this paper and in ‘Projective Geometry II: Holonomy Classification’, by the same author) in...
