Abstract: Let M be a -manifold. We consider an almost CR-structure on the sphere bundle of unit tangent vectors on M, called the CR twistor space. This CR-structure is integrable if and only if M is a holonomy -manifold. We interpret -instanton bundles as CR-holomorphic bundles on its twistor space. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: A set of canonical paraHermitian connections on an almost paraHermitian manifold is defined. ParaHermitian version of the Apostolov–Gauduchon generalization of the Goldberg–Sachs theorem in General Relativity is given. It is proved that the Nijenhuis tensor of a Nearly paraKähler manifolds is parallel with respect to the canonical connection. Salamon''s twistor construction on quaternionic manifold is adapted to the paraquaternionic case. A hyper-paracomplex structure is constructed on Kodaira–Thurston (properly elliptic) surfaces as well as on the Inoe surfaces modeled on . A locally conformally flat hyper-paraKähler (hypersymplectic) structure with parallel Lee form on Kodaira–Thurston surfaces is obtained. Anti-self-dual non-Weyl flat neutral metric on Inoe surfaces modeled on is presented. An example of anti-self-dual neutral metric which is not locally conformally hyper-paraKähler is constructed.
