We investigate the structure of conformal $C$-spaces,a class of Riemmanian manifolds which naturally arises as aconformal generalisation of the Einstein condition. A basic question is when such a structure is closed, or equivalently locally…

Building on previous results, we complete the classification of compact oriented Einstein 4-manifolds with det (W^+) > 0. There are, up to diffeomorphism, exactly 15 manifolds that carry such metrics, and, on each of these manifolds, such…

We classify the Einstein metrics on closed 4-manifolds whose isometry group has dimension at least 3. Consequently, we show that the cohomogeneity-one Einstein metrics on a closed $4$-manifold are locally symmetric or homothetic to the Page…

We survey some aspects of the current state of research on Einstein metrics on compact 4-manifolds. A number of open problems are presented and discussed.

In this work, we investigate the geometry and topology of compact Einstein-type manifolds with nonempty boundary. First, we prove a sharp boundary estimate, as consequence we obtain under certain hypotheses that the Hawking mass is bounded…

In this paper we show that for an $\text{Sp}(k+1)$ invariant metric $\hat{g}$ on $\mathbb{S}^{4k+3}$ $(k\geq 1)$ close to the round metric, the conformally compact Einstein (CCE) manifold $(M, g)$ with $(\mathbb{S}^{4k+3}, [\hat{g}])$ as…

A classical theorem in conformal geometry states that on a manifold with non-positive Yamabe invariant, a smooth metric achieving the invariant must be Einstein. In this work, we extend it to the singular case and show that in all…

We construct Einstein metrics of non-positive scalar curvature on certain solid torus bundles over a Fano Kahler-Einstein manifold. We show, among other things, that the negative Einstein metrics are conformally compact, and the Ricci-flat…

This paper initiates the study of the Einstein equation on homogeneous supermanifolds. First, we produce explicit curvature formulas for graded Riemannian metrics on these spaces. Next, we present a construction of homogeneous…
