Variations of gwistor space

TL;DR: In this paper, the Sasaki metric has been studied on the unit tangent sphere bundle SM of any oriented Riemannian 4-manifold M and the equations of calibration and cocalibration for W3 pure type and nearly-parallel type were derived.

External Geometry of Submanifolds in Conformal Kenmotsu Manifolds

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied submanifolds of a conformal Kenmotsu manifold of which the second fundamental form is recurrent, 2-recurrent or generalized 2-Recurrent.

Geometry of G-Structures via the Intrinsic Torsion

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the geometry of a G$-structure inside the oriented orthonormal frame bundle over an oriented Riemannian manifold and showed that the minimality of the structure is equivalent to the harmonicity of an induced section of the homogeneous bundle.

Spectral geometry of eta-Einstein Sasakian manifolds

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the condition that a manifold is an η -Einstein Sasakian manifold is spectrally determined for closed Riemannian manifolds.

Three Instanton Computations in Gauge Theory And String Theory

TL;DR: In this article, the authors employ a variety of ideas from geometry and topology to perform instanton computations in supersymmetric QCD and string theory and show that instantons generate a hierarchy of new, multi-fermion F -terms in the effective action.
