The complex structure problem in geometry of curved spacetime

I. V. Maresin

Steklov Mathematical Institute of Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow

Abstract: First, we’ll recall the complex structure problem in R. Penrose’s Twistor Programme. Then, we’ll principally analyse the spacetime geometry via contact structure.
In particular, we’ll consider possible construction for a global spinor bundle that should give the $\bar\partial$ operator on sections restricted to a sky. It uses so named reverse conformal reference frame, which is based on the contact $ST^*M$ bundle. These constructions will be connected with theory of gravitation.
