Geometric flow on compact locally conformally Kähler manifolds (Q2571472)

The authors study two kinds of transformation groups of a compact locally conformal Kähler (l.c.K.) manifold \((M,g,J)\). Theorem A: Let \((M,g,J)\) be a compact connected l.c.K. non-Kähler manifold, of complex dimension at least \(2\). Assume that on \(M\) there exists a holomorphic l.c.K. flow. Then there exists a metric with parallel Lee form in the conformal class of \(g\). Under the hypothesis of theorem A, \(M\) admits a l.c.K. metric with parallel Lee form if and only if it admits a holomorphic l.c.K. flow. Theorem B: The primary Hopf manifold \(M_\Lambda\) of type \(\Lambda \) supports a l.c.K. metric with parallel form. In the second part of the paper, the authors study a non-compact, non-holomorphic transformation group of a l.c.K. manifold with parallel Lee form. Theorem C: Let \((M,g,J)\) be a compact, connected, l.c.K. non-Kähler manifold of complex dimension at least \(2\), with parallel Lee form \(\theta\). Suppose that \(M\) admits a closed subgroup \(\mathbb{C}^*=S^1\times \mathbb{R}^+\) of Lee-Cauchy-Riemann transformations whose \(S^1\) subgroup induces the Lee field \(\theta^\sharp\). Then \(M\) is holomorphically isometric, up to scalar multiple of the metric, to the primary Hopf manifold \(M_\Lambda\) of type \(\Lambda\) endowed with the canonical l.c.K. metric as stated in theorem B.
