Calabi-Yau structure and special Lagrangian submanifold of the complexified symmeric space

Abstract

It is known that there exist Calabi-Yau structures on the complexifications of symmetric spaces of compact type. In this paper, we describe the Calabi-Yau structures of the complexified symmetric spaces in terms of the Schwarz's theorem in detail. We consider the case where the Calabi-Yau structure arises from the Riemannian metric corresponding to the Stenzel metric. In the complexified symmetric spaces equipped with such a Calabi-Yau structure, we give constructions of special Lagrangian submanifolds of any phase which are invariant under the actions of symmetric subgroups of the isometry group of the original symmetric space of compact type.
