On de Rham and Dolbeault Cohomology of Solvmanifolds

For a simply connected (non-nilpotent) solvable Lie group $G$ with a lattice $\Gamma$ the de Rham and Dolbeault cohomologies of the solvmanifold $G/\Gamma$ are not in general isomorphic to the cohomologies of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ of $G$. In this paper we construct, up to a finite group, a new Lie algebra $\tilde{\mathfrak g}$ whose cohomology is isomorphic to the de Rham cohomology of $G/\Gamma$ by using a modification of $G$ associated with a algebraic sub-torus of the Zariski-closure of the image of the adjoint representation. This technique includes the construction due to Guan and developed by the first two authors. In this paper, we also give a Dolbeault version of such technique for complex solvmanifolds, i.e. for solvmanifolds endowed with an invariant complex structure. We construct a finite dimensional cochain complex which computes the Dolbeault cohomology of a complex solvmanifold $G/\Gamma$ with holomorphic Mostow bundle and we give a construction of a new Lie algebra $\breve {\mathfrak g}$ with a complex structure whose cohomology is isomorphic to the Dolbeault cohomology of $G/\Gamma$.

Lattices, cohomology and models of six dimensional almost abelian solvmanifolds

We construct lattices on six dimensional not completely solvable almost abelian Lie groups, for which the Mostow condition does not hold. For the corresponding compact quotients, we compute the de Rham cohomology (which does not agree in general with the Lie algebra one) and a minimal model. We show that some of these solvmanifolds admit not invariant symplectic structures and we study formality and Lefschetz properties.

Solvable models for Kodaira surfaces

We consider three families of lattices on the oscillator group $G$, which is an almost nilpotent not completely solvable Lie group, giving rise to coverings $G \to M_{k, 0} \to M_{k, \pi} \to M_{k, \pi/2}$ for $k\in \Z$. We show that the corresponding families of four dimensional solvmanifolds are not pairwise diffeomorphic and we compute their cohomology and minimal models. In particular, each manifold $M_{k, 0}$ is diffeomorphic to a Kodaira--Thurston manifold, i.e. a compact quotient $S^1 \times \Heis_3 (\R) /\Gamma_k$ where $\Gamma_k$ is a lattice of the real three-dimensional Heisenberg group $\Heis_3 (\R)$. We summarize some geometric aspects of those compact spaces. In particular, we note that any $M_{k, 0}$ provides an example of a solvmanifold whose cohomology does not depend on the Lie algebra only and which admits many symplectic structures that are invariant by the group $\R \times\Heis_3 (\R)$ but not under the oscillator group $G$.

On the de Rham cohomology of solvmanifolds

By using results by D. Witte on the superigidity of lattices in solvable Lie groups we get a different proof of a recent remarkable result obtained by D. Guan on the de Rham cohomology of a compact solvmanifold, i.e. of a quotient of a connected and simply connected solvable Lie group $G$ by a lattice $Γ$. This result can be applied to compute the Betti numbers of a compact solvmanifold $G/Γ$ even in the case that the solvable Lie group $G$ and the lattice $Γ$ do not satisfy the Mostow condition.

A Berger type normal holonomy theorem for complex submanifolds

We prove a Berger type theorem for the normal holonomy group (i.e., the holonomy group of the normal connection) of a full complete complex submanifold of the complex projective space. Namely, if the normal holonomy does not act transitively, then the submanifold is the complex orbit, in the complex projective space, of the isotropy representation of an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of rank greater or equal to 3. Moreover, we show that for complete irreducible complex submanifolds of the complex Euclidean space the normal holonomy is generic, i.e., it acts transitively on the unit sphere of the normal space. The methods in the proofs rely heavily on the singular data of appropriate holonomy tubes (after lifting the submanifold to the complex Euclidean space, in the projective case) and basic facts of complex submanifolds.

Parallel submanifolds of complex projective space and their normal holonomy

The object of this article is to compute the holonomy group of the normal connection of complex parallel submanifolds of the complex projective space. We also give a new proof of the classification of complex parallel submanifolds by using a normal holonomy approach. Indeed, we explain how these submanifolds can be regarded as the unique complex orbits of the (projectivized) isotropy representation of an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space. Moreover, we show how these important submanifolds are related to other areas of mathematics and theoretical physics. Finally, we state a conjecture about the normal holonomy group of a complete and full complex submanifold of the complex projective space.

Stability of Abelian Complex Structures

Let $M = Γ\backslash G$ be a nilmanifold endowed with an invariant complex structure. We prove that Kuranishi deformations of abelian complex structures are all invariant complex structures, generalizing a result of C. Maclaughlin, H. Pedersen, Y.S. Poon and S. Salamon for 2-step nilmanifolds. We characterize small deformations that remain abelian. As an application, we observe that at real dimension six, the deformation process of abelian complex structures is stable within the class of nilpotent complex structures. We give an example to show that this property does not hold in higher dimension.
