We show that complex symplectic structures need not be preserved under small deformations, and we find sufficient conditions for this to happen. We study various cohomologies of compact complex symplectic manifolds, obtaining some topological obstructions to their existence.
We present two constructions of complex symplectic structures on Lie algebras with large abelian ideals. In particular, we completely classify complex symplectic structures on almost abelian Lie algebras. By considering compact quotients of their corresponding connected, simply connected Lie groups we obtain many examples of complex symplectic manifolds which do not carry (hyper)kähler metrics. We also produce examples of compact complex symplectic manifolds endowed with a fibration whose fibers are Lagrangian tori.
We classify the nilpotent Lie algebras of real dimension eight and minimal center that admit a complex structure. Furthermore, for every such nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we describe the space of complex structures on $\mathfrak{g}$ up to isomorphism. As an application, the nilpotent Lie algebras having a non-trivial abelian $J$-invariant ideal are classified up to eight dimensions.
On a complex manifold $(M,J)$, we interpret complex symplectic and pseudo-Kähler structures as symplectic forms with respect to which $J$ is, respectively, symmetric and skew-symmetric. We classify complex symplectic structures on 4-dimensional Lie algebras. We develop a method for constructing hypersymplectic structures from the above data. This allows us to obtain an example of a hypersymplectic structure on a 4-step nilmanifold.
We study the stability of compact pseudo-Kähler manifolds, i.e. compact complex manifolds $X$ endowed with a symplectic form compatible with the complex structure of $X$. When the corresponding metric is positive-definite, $X$ is Kähler and any sufficiently small deformation of $X$ admits a Kähler metric by a well-known result of Kodaira and Spencer. We prove that compact pseudo-Kähler surfaces are also stable, but we show that stability fails in every complex dimension $n\geq 3$. Similar results are obtained for compact neutral Kähler and neutral Calabi-Yau manifolds. Finally, motivated by a question of Streets and Tian in the positive-definite case, we construct compact complex manifolds with pseudo-Hermitian-symplectic structures that do not admit any pseudo-Kähler metric.
We prove that for any $n\geq 4$ there are infinitely many real homotopy types of $2n$-dimensional nilmanifolds admitting generalized complex structures of every type $k$, for $0 \leq k \leq n$. This is in deep contrast to the $6$-dimensional case.
We investigate Lie algebras endowed with a complex symplectic structure and develop a method, called \emph{complex symplectic oxidation}, to construct certain complex symplectic Lie algebras of dimension $4n+4$ from those of dimension $4n$. We specialize this construction to the nilpotent case and apply complex symplectic oxidation to classify eight-dimensional nilpotent complex symplectic Lie algebras.
We find a one-parameter family of non-isomorphic nilpotent Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}_a$, with $a \in [0,\infty)$, of real dimension eight with (strongly non-nilpotent) complex structures. By restricting $a$ to take rational values, we arrive at the existence of infinitely many real homotopy types of $8$-dimensional nilmanifolds admitting a complex structure. Moreover, balanced Hermitian metrics and generalized Gauduchon metrics on such nilmanifolds are constructed.
In this note we present, for every $n \geq 4$, a non-Kähler compact complex manifold $X$ of complex dimension $n$ admitting a balanced metric and an astheno-Kähler metric which is in addition $k$-th Gauduchon for any $1\leq k\leq n-1$.
We study properties concerning decomposition in cohomology by means of generalized-complex structures. This notion includes the $\mathcal{C}^\infty$-pure-and-fullness introduced by Li and Zhang in the complex case and the Hard Lefschetz Condition in the symplectic case. Explicit examples on the moduli space of the Iwasawa manifold are investigated.
The Bott-Chern cohomology of 6-dimensional nilmanifolds endowed with invariant complex structure is studied with special attention to the cases when balanced or strongly Gauduchon Hermitian metrics exist. We consider complex invariants introduced by Angella and Tomassini and by Schweitzer, which are related to the $\partial \bar\partial$-lemma condition and defined in terms of the Bott-Chern cohomology, and show that the vanishing of some of these invariants is not a closed property under holomorphic deformations. In the balanced case, we determine the spaces that parametrize deformations in type IIB supergravity described by Tseng and Yau in terms of the Bott-Chern cohomology group of bidegree (2,2).
