Oeljeklaus-Toma (OT) manifolds are complex non-Kahler manifolds whose construction arises from specific number fields.

In addition, we compute also their twisted cohomology. As an application, we show that the low degree Chern classes of any complex vector bundle on an OT manifold vanish in the real cohomology. Other applications concern the OT manifolds admitting locally conformally Kahler (LCK) metrics: we show that there is only one possible Lee class of an LCK metric, and we determine all the possible twisted classes of an LCK metric, which implies the nondegeneracy of certain Lefschetz maps in cohomology.

Abstract

Oeljeklaus-Toma (OT) manifolds are complex non-Kahler manifolds whose construction arises from specific number fields. In this note, we compute their de Rham cohomology in terms of invariants associated to the background number field. This is done by two distinct approaches, one by averaging over a certain compact group, and the other one using the Leray-Serre spectral sequence. In addition, we compute also their twisted cohomology. As an application, we show that the low degree Chern classes of any complex vector bundle on an OT manifold vanish in the real cohomology. Other applications concern the OT manifolds admitting locally conformally Kahler (LCK) metrics: we show that there is only one possible Lee class of an LCK metric, and we determine all the possible twisted classes of an LCK metric, which implies the nondegeneracy of certain Lefschetz maps in cohomology.
