We review basic facts on the structure of nearly K\"ahler manifolds, focussing in particular on the six-dimensional case. A self-contained proof that nearly K\"ahler six-manifolds are Einstein is given by combining different known results.…

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…
