LeBrun–Mason type correspondence conjecture for space-like Zoll Einstein–Weyl structures
LeBrun–Mason type correspondence conjecture for space-like Zoll Einstein–Weyl structures
Let be a real manifold equipped with an indefinite Weyl structure , meaning a conformal class of indefinite metrics and a connection satisfying for some -form . It is Einstein–Weyl if the symmetrized Ricci tensor satisfies , and it is space-like Zoll if every maximal space-like geodesic is closed. A totally real embedding is an embedding of a real manifold whose tangent spaces contain no complex lines.
LeBrun–Mason type correspondence conjecture. There is a natural one-to-one correspondence, at least in a neighborhood of the standard objects, between equivalence classes of space-like Zoll Einstein–Weyl structures on and equivalence classes of totally real embeddings
This conjectures a local twistor correspondence between Einstein–Weyl geometries satisfying the global space-like Zoll condition and totally real submanifolds of the relevant complex twistor space. The qualification “in a neighborhood of the standard objects” reflects that the proposed correspondence is established only perturbatively near the model case.
