We construct a 2-parameter family of new triaxial $SU(2)$-invariant complete negative Einstein metrics on the complex line bundle $\mathcal{O}(-4)$ over $\mathbb{C}P^1$. The metrics are conformally compact and neither K\"ahler nor…
In this note we prove two existence theorems for the Einstein constraint equations on asymptotically Euclidean manifolds. The first is for arbitrary mean curvature functions with restrictions on the size of the transverse-traceless data and…
We prove that if the $m$-th homotopy group for $m \geq 2$ of a closed manifold has non-trivial invariants or coinvariants under the action of the fundamental group, then there exist infinitely many geometrically distinct closed geodesics…
In joint work with Chen and Weber, the author has elsewhere shown that CP2#2(-CP2) admits an Einstein metric. The present paper gives a new and rather different proof of this fact. Our results include new existence theorems for extremal…
We consider non-Kaehler compact complex manifolds which are homogeneous under the action of a compact Lie group of biholomorphisms and we investigate the existence of special (invariant) Hermitian metrics on these spaces. We focus on a…
In this paper, we investigate nilpotent and unimodular solvable Lie groups that admit quasi-Einstein metrics $(M,g,X)$ with $X$ a left-invariant vector field, which we call totally left-invariant quasi-Einstein metrics. We give a complete…
The aim of this paper is to present some structural equations for generalized quasi-Einstein metrics which was defined recently by Catino in [12]. In addition, supposing that the Riemannian manifold is Einstein we shall show that it is a…
It has been known that there exist exactly three left-invariant Lorentzian metrics up to scaling and automorphisms on the three dimensional Heisenberg group. In this paper, we classify left-invariant Lorentzian metrics on the direct product…
Given a parabolic geometry, it is sometimes possible to find special metrics characterised by some invariant conditions. In conformal geometry, for example, one asks for an Einstein metric in the conformal class. Einstein metrics have the…
We consider homogeneous hypercomplex manifolds with a transitive action of a compact Lie group and we give a characterization of invariant HKT metrics on them. On every such hypercomplex manifold we prove the existence of an invariant…
Let $G/H$ be a compact homogeneous space, and let $\hat{g}_0$ and $\hat{g}_1$ be $G$-invariant Riemannian metrics on $G/H$. We consider the problem of finding a $G$-invariant Einstein metric $g$ on the manifold $G/H\times [0,1]$ subject to…
Let $M$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold and $N$ be a subvariety with codimension greater than or equal to 2. We show that there are no complete K\"ahler--Einstein metrics on $M-N$. As an application, let $E$ be an exceptional divisor of $M$.…
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…
We consider solutions of the Einstein equations with cosmological constant $\Lambda\neq 0$ admitting conformal compactification with smooth scri $\mathscr{I^+}$. Metrics are written in the Bondi-Sachs coordinates and expanded into inverse…
Almost hypercomplex manifolds with Hermitian and Norden metrics and more specially the corresponding quaternionic Kaehler manifolds are considered. Some necessary and sufficient conditions the investigated manifolds be isotropic…
We show that if a closed manifold of dimension at least four admits a negatively curved metric that is almost Einstein in a suitable sense, then it admits a genuine Einstein metric of negative sectional curvature. Importantly, the pinching…
This paper is devoted to the first systematic investigation of manifolds that are Einstein for a connection with skew symmetric torsion. We derive the Einstein equation from a variational principle and prove that, for parallel torsion, any…
Starting with a compact hyperbolic cone-manifold of dimension greater than or equal to 3, we study the deformations of the metric with the aim of getting Einstein cone-manifolds. If the singular locus is a closed codimension 2 submanifold…
Let $(M^4,g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension four. We investigate the properties of metrics which are critical points of the eigenvalues of the Paneitz operator when considered as functionals on the space of Riemannian metrics…
In this paper, we study several types of geometric problems related to the Ricci curvature on noncompact complex manifolds, such as the existence of K\"{a}hler-Einstein metrics on complete K\"{a}hler manifolds with negative Ricci curvature,…
