We present a local classification of conformally equivalent but oppositely oriented 4-dimensional Kaehler metrics which are toric with respect to a common 2-torus action. In the generic case, these "ambitoric" structures have an intriguing…
A method, due to \'Elie Cartan, is used to give an algebraic classification of the non-reductive homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of dimension four. Only one case with Lorentz signature can be Einstein without having constant…

We introduce a special class of nilpotent Lie groups of step 2, that generalizes the so called $H$(eisenberg)-type groups, defined by A. Kaplan in 1980. We change the presence of inner product to an arbitrary scalar product and relate the…

We discuss a technique to construct Ricci-flat hermitian metrics on complements of (some) anticanonical divisors of almost homogeneous manifolds and discuss when this metric is complete and K\"ahler. This construction has a strong interplay…
In this article, we study Einstein Kropina metrics on Lie groups and homogeneous spaces. We give a method to construct Einstein Kropina metrics on Lie groups. As an example of this method, a family of non-Riemannian Einstein Kropina metrics…

A Riemannian Einstein solvmanifold (possibly, any noncompact homogeneous Einstein space) is almost completely determined by the nilradical of its Lie algebra. A nilpotent Lie algebra, which can serve as the nilradical of an Einstein metric…
We study the relation between two special classes of Riemannian Lie groups $G$ with a left-invariant metric $g$: The Einstein Lie groups, defined by the condition $\operatorname{Ric}_g=cg$, and the geodesic orbit Lie groups, defined by the…
It is known that every compact simple Lie group admits a bi-invariant homogeneous Einstein metric. In this paper we use two ansatz to probe the existence of additional inequivalent Einstein metrics on the Lie group SU (n) for arbitrary n.…
Let (N,J) be a real 2n-dimensional nilpotent Lie group endowed with an invariant complex structure. A left-invariant Riemannian metric on N compatible with J is said to be minimal, if it minimizes the norm of the invariant part of the Ricci…
The aim of this note is the study of Einstein condition for para-holomorphic Riemannian metrics in the para-complex geometry framework. Firstly, we make some general considerations about para-complex Riemannian manifolds (not necessarily…
A Riemannian manifold $(M,\rho)$ is called Einstein if the metric $\rho$ satisfies the condition $\Ric (\rho)=c\cdot \rho$ for some constant $c$. This paper is devoted to the investigation of $G$-invariant Einstein metrics with additional…
We introduce a large class of canonical K\"ahler metrics, called in this paper well-behaved, extending metrics induced by complex space forms. We study K\"ahler--Ricci iterations of well-behaved metrics on compact and non-compact K\"ahler…
In this paper, we study a special class of Finsler metrics, $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics, defined by $F = \alpha \phi(\frac{\beta}{\alpha})$, where $\alpha$ is a Riemannian metric and $\beta$ is a 1-form. We find an equation that characterizes…
We obtain new invariant Einstein metrics on the compact Lie groups $\SO(n)$ which are not naturally reductive. This is achieved by using the real flag manifolds $\SO(k_1+\cdots +k_p)/\SO(k_1)\times\cdots\times\SO(k_p)$ and by imposing…
