We introduce a systematic method to produce left-invariant, non-Ricci-flat Einstein metrics of indefinite signature on nice nilpotent Lie groups. On a nice nilpotent Lie group, we give a simple algebraic characterization of non-Ricci-flat…

We construct the Einstein equation for an invariant Riemannian metric on the exceptional full flag manifold $M=G_2/T$. By computing a Gr\"obner basis for a system of polynomials of multi-variables we prove that this manifold admits exactly…

We describe an example of an indefinite invariant Einstein metric on a solvmanifold which is not standard, and whose restriction on the nilradical is nondegenerate.

We prove a nonexistence theorem for product type manifolds. In particular we show that the 4-manifold $\Sigma_g\times\Sigma_h$ does not admit any locally conformally flat metric arising from discrete and faithful representations for $g\geq…

All known examples of homogeneous Einstein metrics of negative Ricci curvature can be realized as left-invariant Riemannian metrics on solvable Lie groups. After defining a notion of maximal symmetry among left-invariant Riemannian metrics…

We consider invariant Einstein metrics on the quaternionic Stiefel manifolds $V_p\mathbb{H} ^n$ of all orthonormal $p$-frames in $\mathbb{H}^n$. This manifold is diffeomorphic to the homogeneous space $\mathrm{Sp}(n) / \mathrm{Sp}(n-p)$ and…

The aim of this paper is to present some structural equations for generalized quasi-Einstein metrics which was defined recently by Catino in [12]. In addition, supposing that the Riemannian manifold is Einstein we shall show that it is a…

We consider solutions of the Einstein equations with cosmological constant $\Lambda\neq 0$ admitting conformal compactification with smooth scri $\mathscr{I^+}$. Metrics are written in the Bondi-Sachs coordinates and expanded into inverse…

We study local structure of the moduli space of compact Einstein metrics with respect to the boundary conformal metric and mean curvature. In dimension three, we confirm M. Anderson's conjecture in a strong sense, showing that the map from…

It is well known that in Lorentzian geometry there are no compact spherical space forms; in dimension 3, this means there are no closed Einstein 3-manifolds with positive Einstein constant. We generalize this fact here, by proving that…

We show that the complex-hyperbolic Einstein Dehn filling compactification cannot possibly be performed in dimension four.

We develop a notion of Einstein manifolds with skew torsion on compact, orientable Riemannian manifolds of dimension four. We prove an analogue of the Hitchin-Thorpe inequality and study the case of equality. We use the link with…

We provide an explicit resolution of the existence problem for extremal Kaehler metrics on toric 4-orbifolds M with second Betti number b2(M)=2. More precisely we show that M admits such a metric if and only if its rational Delzant polytope…

In this paper, we prove some rigidity results for the Einstein metrics as the critical points of a family of known quadratic curvature functionals on closed manifolds, characterized by some point-wise inequalities. Moreover, we also provide…

We study conformally compact metrics satisfying the Lovelock equations, which generalize the Einstein equation. We show that these metrics admit polyhomogeneous expansions, thereby naturally realizing the Fefferman-Graham expansion, which…

Almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian and Norden metrics and more specially the corresponding quaternionic Kaehler manifolds are considered. Some necessary and sufficient conditions the investigated manifolds be isotropic…

We refine the regularity of noncollapsed limits of 5-dimensional manifolds with bounded Ricci curvature. In particular, for noncollapsed limits of Einstein 5-manifolds, we prove that (1) tangent cones are unique of the form…
