Almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian and Norden metrics and more specially the corresponding quaternionic Kähler manifolds are considered. Some necessary and sufficient conditions for the investigated manifolds to be isotropic hyper-Kählerian and flat are found. It is proved that the quaternionic Kähler manifolds with the considered metric structure are Einstein for dimension at least 8. The class of the non-hyper-Kähler quaternionic Kähler manifolds of the considered type is determined. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The subject of investigations are the almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian and anti-Hermitian (Norden) metrics. A linear connection D is introduced such that the structure of these manifolds is parallel with respect to D and its torsion is totally skew-symmetric. The class of the nearly Kähler manifolds with respect to the first almost complex structure is of special interest. It is proved that D has a D-parallel torsion and is weak if it is not flat. Some curvature properties of these manifolds are studied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian and anti-Hermitian metrics are considered. A linear connection is introduced such that the structure of these manifolds is parallel with respect to . Of special interest is the class of the locally conformally equivalent manifolds of the manifolds with covariantly constant almost complex structures and the case when the torsion of is -parallel. Curvature properties of these manifolds are studied. An example of 4-dimensional manifolds in the considered basic class is constructed and characterized. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
