Complete quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds with finite volume ends

Differential Geometry 2022-12-23 v3

Abstract

We construct examples of complete quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds with an end of finite volume, which are not locally homogeneous. The manifolds are aspherical with fundamental group which is up to an infinite cyclic extension a semi-direct product of a lattice in a semi-simple group with a lattice in a Heisenberg group. Their universal covering is a cohomogeneity one deformation of a symmetric space of non-compact type.
