Generalized CRF-structures

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: A generalized F-structure is a complex, isotropic subbundle E of TcMoplusTcM (TcM=TMotimesmathdsRmathdsC and the metric is defined by pairing) such that . If E is also closed by the Courant bracket, E is a generalized CRF-structure. We show that a generalized F-structure is equivalent with a skew-symmetric endomorphism Phi of TMoplusTM that satisfies the condition Phi3+Phi=0 and we express the CRF-condition by means of the Courant-Nijenhuis torsion of Phi. The structures that we consider are generalizations of the F-structures defined by Yano and of the CR (Cauchy-Riemann) structures. We construct generalized CRF-structures from: a classical F-structure, a pair (mathcalV,sigma) where mathcalV is an integrable subbundle of TM and sigma is a 2-form on M, a generalized, normal, almost contact structure of codimension h. We show that a generalized complex structure on a manifold ildeM induces generalized CRF-structures into some submanifolds MsubseteqildeM. Finally, we consider compatible, generalized, Riemannian metrics and we define generalized CRFK-structures that extend the generalized K"ahler structures and are equivalent with quadruples (gamma,F+,F,psi), where (gamma,Fpm) are classical, metric CRF-structures, psi is a 2-form and some conditions expressible in terms of the exterior differential dpsi and the gamma-Levi-Civita covariant derivative ablaFpm hold. If dpsi=0, the conditions reduce to the existence of two partially K"ahler reductions of the metric gamma. The paper ends by an Appendix where we define and characterize generalized Sasakian structures.
