Subspaces of a para-quaternionic Hermitian vector space

Abstract

Let $(\tilde Q,g) $ be a para-quaternionic Hermitian structure on the real vector space $V$. By referring to the tensorial presentation $(V, \tilde{Q},g) \simeq (H^2 \otimes E^{2n}, \mathfrak{sl}(H),\omega^H \otimes \omega^E)$, we give an explicit description, from an affine and metric point of view, of main classes of subspaces of $V$ which are invariantly defined with respect to the structure group of $\tilde{Q}$ and $(\tilde{Q},g)$ respectively.
