A tour on Hermitian symmetric manifolds
arXiv:1310.3665 · doi:10.1007/978-3-319-04870-3_5
Abstract
Hermitian symmetric manifolds are Hermitian manifolds which are homogeneous and such that every point has a symmetry preserving the Hermitian structure. The aim of these notes is to present an introduction to this important class of manifolds, trying to survey the several different perspectives from which Hermitian symmetric manifolds can be studied.
