Twistor theory of symplectic manifolds

preprint2005arXivOpen access

Abstract

This article is a contribution to the understanding of the geometry of the twistor space of a symplectic manifold. We consider the bundle ZZ with fibre the Siegel domain Sp(2n,R)/U(n) existing over any given symplectic 2n-manifold M. Then, after recalling the construction of the almost complex structure induced on ZZ by a symplectic connection on M, we study and find some specific properties of both. We show a few examples of twistor spaces, develop the interplay with the symplectomorphisms of M, find some results about a natural almost Hermitian structure on ZZ and finally prove its n+1-holomorphic completeness. We end by proving a vanishing theorem about the Penrose transform.
