We obtain infinite classes of new Einstein-Sasaki metrics on complete and non-singular manifolds. They arise, after Euclideanisation, from BPS limits of the rotating Kerr-de Sitter black hole metrics. The new Einstein-Sasaki spaces…

In this paper, we obtain new non-singular Einstein-Sasaki spaces in dimensions D\ge 7. The local construction involves taking a circle bundle over a (D-1)-dimensional Einstein-Kahler metric that is itself constructed as a complex line…

We construct explicit Einstein-Kahler metrics in all even dimensions D=2n+4 \ge 6, in terms of a $2n$-dimensional Einstein-Kahler base metric. These are cohomogeneity 2 metrics which have the new feature of including a NUT-type parameter,…

Recently an explicit resolution of the Calabi-Yau cone over the inhomogeneous five-dimensional Einstein-Sasaki space Y^{2,1} was obtained. It was constructed by specialising the parameters in the BPS limit of recently-discovered…

We give the general Kerr-de Sitter metric in arbitrary spacetime dimension D\ge 4, with the maximal number [(D-1)/2] of independent rotation parameters. We obtain the metric in Kerr-Schild form, where it is written as the sum of a de Sitter…

The aim of this paper is to construct left-invariant Einstein pseudo-Riemannian Sasaki metrics on solvable Lie groups. We consider the class of $\mathfrak z$-standard Sasaki solvable Lie algebras of dimension $2n+3$, which are in one-to-one…

The purpose of this note is to introduce a new method for proving the existence of Sasakian-Einstein metrics on certain simply connected odd dimensional manifolds. We then apply this method to prove the existence of new Sasakian-Einstein…

In a recent article the first three authors proved that in dimension $4m+1$ all homotopy spheres that bound parallelizable manifolds admit Einstein metrics of positive scalar curvature which, in fact, are Sasakian-Einstein. They also…

In this article, we construct non-compact complete Einstein metrics on two infinite series of manifolds. The first series of manifolds are vector bundles with $\mathbb{S}^{4m+3}$ as principal orbit and $\mathbb{HP}^{m}$ as singular orbit.…

A new infinite series of Einstein metrics is constructed explicitly on S^2 x S^3, and the non-trivial S^3-bundle over S^2, containing infinite numbers of inhomogeneous ones. They appear as a certain limit of a nearly extreme 5-dimensional…

Generalizing the scaling limit of Martelli and Sparks [hep-th/0505027] into an arbitrary number of spacetime dimensions we re-obtain the (most general explicitly known) Einstein-Sasaki spaces constructed by Chen, Lu, and Pope…

We construct new complete, compact, inhomogeneous Einstein metrics on S^{m+2} sphere bundles over 2n-dimensional Einstein-Kahler spaces K_{2n}, for all n \ge 1 and all m \ge 1. We also obtain complete, compact, inhomogeneous Einstein…

In this work we study the existence of homogeneous Einstein metrics on the total space of homogeneous fibrations such that the fibers are totally geodesic manifolds. We obtain the Ricci curvature of an invariant metric with totally geodesic…

The hidden symmetries of higher dimensional Kerr-NUT-(A)dS metrics are investigated. In certain scaling limits these metrics are related to the Einstein-Sasaki ones. The complete set of Killing-Yano tensors of the Einstein-Sasaki spaces are…

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…

We prove the existence of Sasakian-Einstein metrics on infinitely many rational homology spheres in all odd dimensions greater than 3. In dimension 5 we obain somewhat sharper results. There are examples where the number of effective…

We use direct products of Einstein Metrics to construct new solutions to Einstein's Equations with cosmological constant. We illustrate the technique with three families of solutions having the geometries Kerr/de Sitter X de Sitter,…

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…

We obtain new invariant Einstein metrics on the compact Lie groups $SO(n)$ ($n \geq 7$) which are not naturally reductive. This is achieved by imposing certain symmetry assumptions in the set of all left-invariant metrics on $SO(n)$ and by…

Solutions to vacuum Einstein field equations with cosmological constant, such as the de Sitter space and the anti-de Sitter space, are basic in different cosmological and theoretical developments. It is also well known that complex…
