We investigate the existence and geometric properties of special hyperhermitian metrics. First of all, we characterise hypercomplex structures with Obata holonomy in $\mathrm{SL}(n, \mathbb{H})$ in terms of the existence of quaternionic…
An overview of some recent developments in inhomogeneous models is presented. As the volume and precision of cosmological data improves, it will become more and more essential to understand the non-linear behaviour of the Einstein field…
We establish a general analytic and geometric framework for resolving Spin(7)--orbifolds. These spaces arise naturally as boundary points in the moduli space of exceptional holonomy metrics, and smooth Gromov--Hausdorff resolutions can be…
The main result of this paper is that the space of conformally compact Einstein metrics on a given manifold is a smooth, infinite dimensional Banach manifold, provided it is non-empty, generalizing earlier work of Graham-Lee and Biquard. We…
We consider homogeneous spaces of Lie groups with compact stabilizer subgroups of two types: those with integrable invariant distributions and those with geodesic orbit invariant Riemannian metrics. The latter means that for an arbitrary…
We initiate a classification of uniform measures in the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb H$ equipped with the Kor\'anyi metric $d_H$, that represents the first example of a noncommutative stratified group equipped with a homogeneous…
In this paper, which is an elaboration of our results in hep-th/0504225, we construct new Einstein-Sasaki spaces L^{p,q,r_1,...,r_{n-1}} in all odd dimensions D=2n+1\ge 5. They arise by taking certain BPS limits of the Euclideanised Kerr-de…
Smooth Kahler-Einstein metrics have been studied for the past 80 years. More recently, singular Kahler-Einstein metrics have emerged as objects of intrinsic interest, both in differential and algebraic geometry, as well as a powerful tool…
We study homogeneous Einstein metrics on indecomposable non-K\"ahlerian C-spaces, i.e. even-dimensional torus bundles $M=G/H$ with $\mathsf{rank} G>\mathsf{rank} H$ over flag manifolds $F=G/K$ of a compact simple Lie group $G$. Based on the…
In this paper we consider the single patch pseudo-spectral scheme for tensorial and spinorial evolution problems on the 2-sphere presented in [3,4] which is based on the spin-weighted spherical harmonics transform. We apply and extend this…
We prove the existence of an abundance of new Einstein metrics on odd dimensional spheres including exotic spheres, many of them depending on continuous parameters. The number of families as well as the number of parameter grows double…
Let $G/H$ be a connected, simply connected homogeneous space of a compact Lie group $G$. We study $G$-invariant quasi-Einstein metrics on the cohomogeneity one manifold $G/H\times (0,1)$ imposing the so-called monotypic condition on $G/H$.…
We prove generic regularity and Uhlenbeck-type compactification theorems for the moduli spaces of PU(2)-monopoles. Generic regularity is NOT obtained in the usual way (by applying Sard theorem to a smooth parameterized moduli space), since…
Given two homogeneous spaces of the form G_1/K and G_2/K, where G_1 and G_2 are compact simple Lie groups, we study the existence problem for G_1xG_2-invariant Einstein metrics on the homogeneous space M=G_1xG_2/K. For the large subclass C…
The equations of 10 or 11 dimensional supergravity admit supersymmetric compactifications on 7-manifolds of $G_2$ holonomy, but these supergravity vacua are deformed away from special holonomy by the higher-order corrections of string or…
This survey deals with two closely connected topics: first, the stability of Einstein metrics under the Einstein-Hilbert functional, and second, their deformation theory and the study of the moduli space of Einstein metrics on a compact…
We construct left invariant quaternionic contact (qc) structures on Lie groups with zero and non-zero torsion and with non-vanishing quaternionic contact conformal curvature tensor, thus showing the existence of non-flat quaternionic…
This paper investigates the interplay between the geometric and topological properties of spherically symmetric black hole metrics within Einstein gravity, emphasizing implications for Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC). By analyzing metric…
We construct new homogeneous Einstein spaces with negative Ricci curvature in two ways: First, we give a method for classifying and constructing a class of rank one Einstein solvmanifolds whose derived algebras are two-step nilpotent. As an…
It was well known that geometric considerations enter in a decisive way in many questions of harmonic analysis. The main purpose of this paper is to provide the criterion of the boundedness for singular integrals on the Hardy spaces and as…
