$3$-$(\alpha,\delta)$-Sasaki manifolds and strongly positive curvature

Ilka Agricola
(Philipps-Universität Marburg)
Abstract
$3$-$(\alpha,\delta)$-Sasaki manifolds are a natural generalisation of $3$-Sasaki manifolds, which in dimension $7$ are intricately related to $G_2$ geometry. We show how these are closely related to various types of quaternionic Kähler orbifolds via connections with skew-torsion and an interesting canonical submersion. Making use of this relation we discuss curvature operators and show that in dimension 7 many such manifolds have strongly positive curvature, a notion originally introduced by Thorpe.

Girao, A Kronenberg, G Scott, A Discrete Analysis

Sunday 9th March (Week 8), 15:45-18:00, Iffley Road Sports Centre.

This year, for the first time in ages, lifesaving will be holding a cuppers event. Compete against other colleges/departments to be crowned the cuppers champions 2025. Compete in teams of four in three events: a swim and tow relay, a line throw relay and an obstacle relay. We'll teach all of the skills needed so everyone* is welcome. No lifesaving experience necessary.
