Abstract:
We study Grassmannian bundles G_k(M) of analytical 2k-planes over an almost Hermitian manifold M^2n, from the point of view of the generalized twistor spaces of [13], and with the method of the moving frame [9]. G_1(M^4) is the classical twistor space. We find four distinguished almost Hermitian structures, one of them being that of [13], and discuss their integrability and Kählerianity. For n=2, we compute the corresponding Hermitian connections, and derive consequences about the corresponding first Chern classes.
