Let X be a closed oriented connected smooth four-manifold and let $\omega _{1},\omega _{2},\omega _{3}$ be closed smooth real two-forms such that every nonzero real linear combination is symplectic and $\int _X$ $\omega _i\wedge \omega _j=\delta _ij$. Must the triple admit a smooth path of such positive triples with each de Rham class fixed, ending at a triple of parallel self-dual forms for a hyperkähler metric?Short English statement

OpenAI claim summary for Math-2663
Hypersymplectic deformation: On a closed oriented four-manifold, a positive triple satisfying the paper’s normalization and consisting of closed two-forms is claimed to deform smoothly to a hyperkähler triple while keeping each cohomology class fixed. The starting triple need not already define a hyperkähler metric. The parameters, regularity assumptions and normalization in this question are retained in applying that assertion.
With the hypotheses and conventions above, the claimed result addresses the whole mathematical assertion on this page.
Deforming hypersymplectic triples to hyperkähler triples
OpenAI's claim
Hypersymplectic deformation: On a closed oriented four-manifold, a positive triple satisfying the paper’s normalization and consisting of closed two-forms is claimed to deform smoothly to a hyperkähler triple while keeping each cohomology class fixed. The starting triple need not already define a hyperkähler metric.Mathematical statement of the claimed result
Mathematical claim 1.
On an oriented four-manifold, a hypersymplectic structure consists of three real forms $\omega_i$ of degree two, satisfying $d\omega_i=0$, with a pointwise span of dimension three that is positive definite for the wedge pairing specified by the orientation. For a closed connected smooth $X$ and such a triple normalized by $\int_X\omega_i\wedge\omega_j=\delta_{ij}$, the claim gives a smooth hypersymplectic deformation $\omega(t)$ with \[\omega(0)=\omega,\qquad[\omega_i(t)]=[\omega_i],\qquad\omega_i(1)\wedge\omega_j(1)=2\delta_{ij}\mu_1.\] The endpoint forms are parallel self-dual forms for a hyperkähler metric. A further corollary states that each nonzero real combination $\alpha_c=\sum c_i\omega_i$ of the original triple is individually a Kähler form for some hyperkähler metric and parallel complex structure, chosen separately for that combination.Outline of the argument
Hypersymplectic deformation: Two forms determine an almost-complex structure, and the third form must keep a taming representative throughout the pair deformation. Positive-current separation and quadratic mass estimates establish a criterion for retaining that representative. An auxiliary fibration and an equal-square pair supply the deformation framework, after which classical Kähler arguments reach the hyperkähler endpoint.Formal verification

Status caveat
OpenAI reports that an internal model produced the manuscripts. Their arguments have not been independently verified as proofs by this site. Any portion outside the documented formal scope may contain mistakes, and the catalogue label reports the announced mathematical claim.Sources
