Abstract.
Locally conformally symplectic (LCS) manifolds provide a natural context for the study of Morse-Novikov cohomology (also known as twisted), which is the cohomology with values in a flat bundle. We present its various aspects and focus on the twisted cohomology of LCS solvmanifolds, of particular interest being the Inoue surfaces and Oeljeklaus-Toma manifolds. The talk is based on joint work with Daniele Angella and Nicoletta Tardini.
