During the last five years, after the first meeting on “Quaternionic Structures in Mathematics and Physics”, interest in quaternionic geometry and its applications has continued to increase. Progress has been made in constructing new classes of manifolds with quaternionic structures (quaternionic Kähler, hyper-Kähler, hyper-complex, etc.), studying the differential geometry of special classes of such manifolds and their submanifolds, understanding relations between the quaternionic structure and other differential-geometric structures, and also in physical applications of quaternionic geometry. Some generalizations of classical quaternion-like structures (like HKT structures and hyper-Kähler manifolds with singularities) appeared naturally and were studied. Some of those results are published in this book.Contents:Hypercomplex Structures on Special Classes of Nilpotent and Solvable Lie Groups (M L Barberis)Twistor Quotients of HyperKähler Manifolds (R Bielawski)Quaternionic Contact Structures (O Biquard)A New Construction of Homogeneous Quaternionic Manifolds and Related Geometric Structures (V Cortes)Quaternion Kähler Flat Manifolds (I G Dotti)A Canonical HyperKähler Metric on the Total Space of a Cotangent Bundle (D Kaledin)Special Spinors and Contact Geometry (A Moroianu)Brane Solitons and Hypercomplex Structures (G Papadopoulos)Hypercomplex Geometry (H Pedersen)Examples of HyperKähler Connections with Torsion (Y S Poon)A New Weight System on Chord Diagrams via HyperKähler Geometry (J Sawon)Vanishing Theorems for Quaternionic Kähler Manifolds (U Semmelmann & G Weingart)Weakening Holonomy (A Swann)Special Kähler Geometry (A Van Proeyen)Singularities in HyperKähler Geometry (M Verbitsky)and other papersReadership: Researchers and graduate students in geometry, topology, mathematical physics and theoretical physics.Key Features:The most comprehensive and authoritative book on Chinese business and management educationDistinguished contributors include Paul Beamish from the Richard Ivey School of Business of the University of Western OntarioAn essential read before departure to China whether you are going to teach, negotiate, or plan to enter the marketProvides a good reference on emergent labor markets that exist for highly educated managerial talent in China
