Title: Spin(7)-structures on complex linear bundles and explicit Riemannian metrics with holonomy group SU(4)

Journal Article · · Sbornik. Mathematics

A system of differential equations with 5 unknowns is fully investigated; this system is equivalent to the existence of a parallel Spin(7)-structure on a cone over a 3-Sasakian manifold. A continuous one-parameter family of solutions to this system is explicitly constructed; it corresponds to metrics with a special holonomy group, SU(4), which generalize Calabi's metrics. Bibliography: 10 titles.
