چکیده
The purpose of this paper is to classify invariant hypercomplex structures on a 4-dimensional real Lie group G. It is shown that the 4dimensional simply connected Lie groups which admit invariant hypercomplex structures are the additive group H of the quaternions, the multiplicative group H∗ of nonzero quaternions, the solvable Lie groups acting simply transitively on the real and complex hyperbolic spaces, RH4 and CH2, respectively, and the semidirect product C o C. We show that the spaces CH2 and C o C possess an RP 2 of (inequivalent) invariant hypercomplex structures while the remaining groups have only one, up to equivalence. Finally, the corresponding hyperhermitian 4-manifolds are determined.

Einstein structures on four-dimensional nutral Lie groups
When Einstein was thinking about the theory of general relativity based on the elimination of especial relativity constraints (especially the geometric relationship of space and time), he understood the first limitation of especial relativity is ignoring changes over time. Because in especial relativity, only the curvature of the space was considered. Therefore, tensor calculations should be to...
متن کاملFour - Dimensional Lie Algebras
The main goal is to classify 4-dimensional real Lie algebras gwhich admit a para-hypercomplex structure. This is a step toward the classification of Lie groups admitting the corresponding left-invariant structure and therefore possessing a neutral, left-invariant, anti-self-dual metric. Our study is related to the work of Barberis who classified real, 4-dimensional simply-connected Lie groups w...
متن کاملHypercomplex Structures on Group Manifolds
We study deformations of hypercomplex structures on compact Lie groups. Our calculation is through the complex deformation theory of the associated twistor spaces. In general, we nd complete parameter spaces of hypercomplex structures associated to compact semi-simple Lie groups. In particular, we discover the complete moduli space of hypercomplex structures on the product of Hopf surfaces.

We study HKT structures on nilpotent Lie groups and on associated nilmanifolds. We exhibit three weak HKT structures on R 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 struc...
متن کاملComplex Product Structures on Lie Algebras Adrián Andrada and Simon Salamon
A study is made of real Lie algebras admitting compatible complex and product structures, including numerous 4-dimensional examples. If g is a Lie algebra with such a structure then its complexification has a hypercomplex structure. It is shown in addition that g splits into the sum of two left-symmetric subalgebras. Interpretations of these results are obtained that are relevant to the theory ...
