On Hermitian Geometry of Complex Surfaces

  • Chapter
Complex, Contact and Symmetric Manifolds

Part of the book series: Progress in Mathematics ((PM,volume 234))

Abstract

The aim of this exposition is to place our recent joint work on anti-self-dual Hermitian surfaces in the more general context of locally conformal Kähler metrics—which literally means that the metric is conformal to a Kähler metric, locally. From now on we will adopt the standard notation l.c.K. for these metrics which were introduced and studied by Vaisman in the 1970s.
