The authors announce the complete classification of irreducible linear Lie groups \(G\) which may be holonomy groups of torsion-free linear connections. The list of such groups is given. If the group \(G\) is complex and has nontrivial first prolongation (and hence belongs to the list of Kobayashi-Nagano), then a twistor construction of manifolds \(M\) with torsion-free connection with holonomy \( \text{Hol} \subset G \) is described. The initial data for the construction is a flag manifold \(X = G/P\) embedded as a Legendre submanifold into a complex contact manifold \(Y\) such that the restriction \(L_X\) to \(X\) of the contact line bundle \(L\) of \(Y\) is very ample. Under some assumptions, there exists a complete analytic family of compact Legendre submanifolds \(X_t\), \(t\in M\), which contains \(X\) and parametrized by a complex manifold \(M\) of dimension \(h^0(X,L_X)\) . Moreover, the manifold \(M\) carries a natural \(G\)-structure and admits a torsion-free connection if \[ H^0(X, L_X \otimes S^2(J^1L_X)^*) \neq 0 . \] (Here \(J^1\) indicates the manifold of 1-jets of a bundle.) Moreover, any complex manifold with a torsion-free holomorphic connection with holonomy \(\text{Hol} \subset G\) can be obtained locally by this construction. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0890.00046].
