Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a hyper-parahermitian connection with totally skew-symmetric torsion (HPKT-structure) are presented. It is shown that any HPKT-structure is locally generated by a real (potential) function. An invariant first order differential operator is defined on any almost hyper-paracomplex manifold showing that it is two-step nilpotent exactly when the almost hyper-paracomplex structure is integrable. A local HPKT-potential is expressed in terms of this operator. Examples of (locally) invariant HPKT-structures with closed as well as non-closed torsion 3-form on a class of (locally) homogeneous hyper-paracomplex manifolds (some of them compact) are constructed.

Abstract. We obtain a complete list of homogeneous hypercomplex structures on the compact Lie groups. The substantial results are formulated and proved entirely in terms of the structure theory of Lie groups and algebras.
