We give necessary and sufficient conditions of the existence of a left-invariant metric of strictly negative Ricci curvature on a solvable Lie group the nilradical of whose Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is a filiform Lie algebra…

We give an overview of what is known on Lie groups admitting a left-invariant metric of negative Ricci curvature, including many natural questions and conjectures in the solvable case. We also introduce an open and convex cone C(n) of…

Until a couple of years ago, the only known examples of Lie groups admitting left-invariant metrics with negative Ricci curvature were either solvable or semisimple. We use a general construction from a previous article of the second named…

We construct many examples of Lie groups with compact Levi factor admitting a left-invariant metric with negative Ricci curvature. We start with a Lie algebra with Levi factor su(n) or so(n) acting on an abelian nilradical via the…

We discuss negatively curved homogeneous spaces admitting a simply transitive group of isometries, or equivalently, negatively curved left-invariant metrics on Lie groups. Negatively curved spaces have a remarkably rich and diverse…

We show that any left invariant metric with harmonic curvature on a solvable Lie group is Ricci-parallel. We show the same result for any Lie group of dimension $\leq$ 6.

In this work we investigate solvable and nilpotent Lie groups with special metrics. The metrics of interest are left-invariant Einstein and algebraic Ricci soliton metrics. Our main result shows that the existence of a such a metric is…

The structure of a solvable Lie groups admitting an Einstein left-invariant metric is, in a sense, completely determined by the nilradical of its Lie algebra. We give an easy-to-check necessary and sufficient condition for a nilpotent…

In the homogeneous case, the only curvature behavior which is still far from being understood is Ricci negative. In this paper, we study which nilpotent Lie algebras admit a Ricci negative solvable extension. Different unexpected behaviors…

All known examples of homogeneous Einstein metrics of negative Ricci curvature can be realized as left-invariant Riemannian metrics on solvable Lie groups. After defining a notion of maximal symmetry among left-invariant Riemannian metrics…

We study the Ricci tensor of left-invariant pseudoriemannian metrics on Lie groups. For an appropriate class of Lie groups that contains nilpotent Lie groups, we introduce a variety with a natural $\mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ action, whose…

We investigate the prescribed Ricci curvature problem in the class of left-invariant naturally reductive Riemannian metrics on a non-compact simple Lie group. We obtain a number of conditions for the solvability of the underlying equations…

Given a nilpotent Lie algebra, we study the space of all diagonalizable derivations such that the corresponding one-dimensional solvable extension admits a left-invariant metric with negative Ricci curvature. It has been conjectured by…

Let (N,g) be a nilpotent Lie group endowed with an invariant geometric structure (cf. symplectic, complex, hypercomplex or any of their `almost' versions). We define a left invariant Riemannian metric on N compatible with g to be minimal,…

A left invariant metric on a nilpotent Lie group is called minimal, if it minimizes the norm of the Ricci tensor among all left invariant metrics with the same scalar curvature. Such metrics are unique up to isometry and scaling and the…

Let N be a nilpotent Lie group and let S be an invariant geometric structure on N (cf. symplectic, complex or hypercomplex). We define a left invariant Riemannian metric on N compatible with S to be "minimal", if it minimizes the norm of…

In this paper we get a necessary and sufficient condition for the Ricci operator of a solvable metric Lie algebra to have at least two negative eigenvalues. In particular, this condition implies that the Ricci operator of every…

There are five unimodular simply connected three dimensional unimodular non abelian Lie groups: the nilpotent Lie group $\mathrm{Nil}$, the special unitary group $\mathrm{SU}(2)$, the universal covering group…

With a f-left-invariant Riemannian metric on a Lie group $G$, we mean a Riemannian metric which is conformally equivalent to a left-invariant Riemannian metric, with the conformal factor $f$. In this article, we study the geometry of such…

All known examples of nontrivial homogeneous Ricci solitons are left-invariant metrics on simply connected solvable Lie groups whose Ricci operator is a multiple of the identity modulo derivations (called solsolitons, and nilsolitons in the…
