Hermitian structures on a class of almost nilpotent solvmanifolds (2112.11960v3)
Abstract: In this paper we investigate the existence of invariant SKT, balanced and generalized K\"ahler structures on compact quotients $\Gamma \backslash G$, where $G$ is an almost nilpotent Lie group whose nilradical has one-dimensional commutator and $\Gamma$ is a lattice of $G$. We first obtain a characterization of Hermitian almost nilpotent Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ whose nilradical $\mathfrak{n}$ has one-dimensional commutator and a classification result in real dimension six. Then, we study the ones admitting SKT and balanced structures and we examine the behaviour of such structures under flows. In particular, we construct new examples of compact SKT manifolds. Finally, we prove some non-existence results for generalized K\"ahler structures in real dimension six. In higher dimension we construct the first examples of non-split generalized K\"ahler structures (i.e., such that the associated complex structures do not commute) on almost abelian Lie algebras. This leads to new compact (non-K\"ahler) manifolds admitting non-split generalized K\"ahler structures.
