Einstein Homogeneous Bisymmetric Fibrations
Abstract
We consider a homogeneous fibration , with symmetric fiber and base, where is a compact connected semisimple Lie group and has maximal rank in . We suppose the base space is isotropy irreducible and the fiber is simply connected. We investigate the existence of -invariant Einstein metrics on such that the natural projection onto is a Riemannian submersion with totally geodesic fibers. These spaces are divided in two types: the fiber is isotropy irreducible or is the product of two irreducible symmetric spaces. We classify all the -invariant Einstein metrics with totally geodesic fibers for the first type. For the second type, we classify all these metrics when is an exceptional Lie group. If is a classical Lie group we classify all such metrics which are the orthogonal sum of the normal metrics on the fiber and on the base or such that the restriction to the fiber is also Einstein.
