Review text

A symplectic form \(\omega\) on a symplectic manifold \(M\) defines a subcomplex of the de Rham complex which consists of those forms \(\alpha\) which are annihilated by \(\omega\) and whose cohomology is called coeffective. Following the results and methods of [\textit{T. Bouché}, Bull. Sci. Math., II. Ser. 114, 115-122 (1990; Zbl 0714.58001)], the authors introduce the so-called \(\omega\)-coeffective cohomology for \(\omega\) to be a closed \(r\)-form on a manifold \(M\) by the similar subcomplex as it was done in the symplectic case. They study the geometry of the complex provided by \(\omega\) and relate the \(\omega\)-coeffective cohomology with the de Rham cohomology. They collect a series of results concerning \(\omega\)-coeffective cohomology with 1-forms, symplectic forms and fundamental forms on almost contact manifolds, \(G_2\)-manifolds, and quaternionic manifolds. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0906.00019].
