Kodaira dimension of almost Kähler manifolds and curvature of the canonical connection (Q2196662): Difference between revisions

In the study of complex manifolds, one of the first invariants, one can attach to any given complex manifold its Kodaira dimension. The definition of the Kodaira dimension has recently been extended by \textit{H. Chen} and \textit{W. Zhang} in [``Kodaira dimensions of almost complex manifolds.I.'', Preprint, \url{arXiv:1808.00885}] in the setting of almost complex manifolds. In the present paper, the authors focus on the Kodaira dimension of almost Kähler manifolds, providing an explicit computation for a family of almost Kähler threefolds on the differentiable manifold underlying a Nakamura manifold. They also study the relation between the odaira dimension and the curvature of the canonical connection of an almost Kähler manifold and show that in the previous example (and in another one obtained from a Kodaira surface) the Ricci curvature of the almost Kähler metric vanishes for all the members of the family.
