Hodge star of the fundamental Hermitian form

ID: hodge-star-of-the-fundamental-hermitian-form

In an adapted real orthonormal coframe, the fundamental form of a Hermitian manifold is and the Riemannian volume form is . The complex-linear Hodge star sends each summand to the product of all the other oriented two-dimensional factors. Summation gives the displayed formula, valid for every Hermitian manifold, without a Kähler assumption.
