Algebraic dimension and complex subvarieties of hypercomplex nilmanifolds (scientific article)



Abstract: A nilmanifold is a (left) quotient of a nilpotent Lie group by a cocompact lattice. A hypercomplex structure on a manifold is a triple of complex structure operators satisfying the quaternionic relations. A hypercomplex nilmanifold is a compact quotient of a nilpotent Lie group equipped with a left-invariant hypercomplex structure. Such a manifold admits a whole 2-dimensional sphere S2 of complex structures induced by quaternions. We prove that for any hypercomplex nilmanifold M and a generic complex structure LinS2, the complex manifold (M,L) has algebraic dimension 0. A stronger result is proven when the hypercomplex nilmanifold is abelian. Consider the Lie algebra of left-invariant vector fields of Hodge type (1,0) on the corresponding nilpotent Lie group with respect to some complex structure IinS2. A hypercomplex nilmanifold is called abelian when this Lie algebra is abelian. We prove that all complex subvarieties of (M,L) for generic LinS2 on a hypercomplex abelian nilmanifold are also hypercomplex nilmanifolds.
