Abstract: The aim of the present paper is to investigate new classes of symplectically fat fibre bundles. We prove a general existence theorem for fat vectors with respect to the canonical invariant connections. Based on this result we give new proofs of some constructions of symplectic structures. This includes twistor bundles and locally homogeneous complex manifolds. The proofs are conceptually simpler and allow for obtaining more general results.

Review text

Consider a connection \(\theta\) on a principal bundle with structural group \(G\) and its curvature form \(\Theta\). A vector \(u \in g^*\) is called fat if the projection of \(\Theta\) on \(u\) is nondegenerate for all horizontal vectors. A special Hamiltonian bundle is called symplectically fat if its coupling form is nondegenerate. In particular, in the framework of the standard model, fatness may be interpreted as an opposite phenomenon to the symmetry breaking. In this paper, the authors study new classes of symplectically fat fibre bundles together with the existence and the properties of fat vectors. Their results lead to simpler proofs for some constructions of symplectic structures.
