A complex symplectic structure on a Lie algebra h is an integrable complex structure J with a closed non-degenerate (2, 0)-form. It is determined by J and the real part of the (2, 0)-form. Suppose that h is a semi-direct product g V, and both g and V are Lagrangian with respect to and totally real with respect to J. This note shows that g V is its own weak mirror image in the sense that the associated differential Gerstenhaber algebras controlling the extended deformations of and J are isomorphic. The geometry of (, J) on the semi-direct product g V is also shown to be equivalent to that of a torsion-free flat symplectic connection on the Lie algebra g. By further exploring a relation between (J, ) with hypersymplectic Lie algebras, we find an inductive process to build families of complex symplectic algebras of dimension 8 n from the data of the 4 n-dimensional ones.

It is shown that an HKT space with closed parallel potential 1-form has D (2, 1; 1) symmetry. Every locally conformally hyper-Khler manifold generates this type of geometry. The HKT spaces with closed parallel potential 1-form arising in this way are characterized by their symmetries and an inhomogeneous cubic condition on their torsion.

This article provides a complete description of the differential Gerstenhaber algebras of all nilpotent complex structures on any real six-dimensional nilpotent algebra. As an application, we classify all pseudo-Khlerian complex structures on six-dimensional nilpotent algebras whose differential Gerstenhaber algebra is quasi-isomorphic to that of the symplectic structure. In a weak sense of mirror symmetry, this gives a classication of pseudo-Khler structures on six-dimensional nilpotent algebras whose mirror images are themselves.

We describe the potential functions for N= 4B supersymmetric quantum mechanics with D (2, 1; ) symmetry.

Making use of the relations among 3-Sasakian manifolds, hypercomplex manifolds and quaternionic Khler orbifolds, we prove that complete 3-Sasakian manifolds are rigid.
