In this paper we construct negatively curved Einstein spaces describing gravitational waves having a solvegeometry wave-front (i.e., the wave-fronts are solvable Lie groups equipped with a left-invariant metric). Using the Einstein…
This article describes some geometric invariants and conformal anomalies for conformally compact Einstein manifolds and their minimal submanifolds which have recently been discovered via the Anti-de Sitter/Conformal Field Theory…
We construct a series of conformally invariant differential operators acting on weighted trace-free symmetric 2-tensors by a method similar to Graham-Jenne-Mason-Sparling's. For compact conformal manifolds of dimension even and greater than…
We introduce Riemannian metrics of positive scalar curvature on manifolds with Baas-Sullivan singularities, prove a corresponding homology invariance principle and discuss admissible products. Using this theory we construct positive scalar…
This article consists of some loosely related remarks about the geometry of G_2-structures on 7-manifolds and is partly based on old unpublished joint work with two other people: F. Reese Harvey and Steven Altschuler. Much of this work has…
We give the expression of the metric derived from Lie groups. For the metric derived from classical Lie groups such as the unitary group, the orthogonal group and the symplectic group, we conjecture that the metric becomes the Einstein…
We give a concise proof that large classes of optimal (constant curvature or Einstein) pseudo-Riemannian metrics are maximally symmetric within their conformal class.
In this article, we develop foundational theory for geometries of the space of closed $G_2$-structures in a given cohomology class as an infinite-dimensional manifold. We introduce Sobolev-type metrics, construct their Levi-Civita…
We study the following problem: given an Einstein metric on a manifold, characterize and study all Einstein metrics which are pointwise projective to the given one. By definition, two metrics are said to be pointwise projectively related if…
The local classification of conformally flat Lorentzian manifolds with special holonomy groups is obtained. The corresponding local metrics are certain extensions of Riemannian spaces of constant sectional curvature to Walker metrics.
We prove that $T^2$-invariant Einstein metrics with non-negative sectional curvature on a four-manifold are locally symmetric.
We make classifications of gradient Ricci solitons $(M, g, f)$ with harmonic Weyl curvature. As a local classification, we prove that the soliton metric $g$ is locally isometric to one of the following four types: an Einstein manifold, the…
We show the contractibility of spaces of invariant Riemannian metrics of positive scalar curvature on compact connected manifolds of dimension at least two, with and without boundary and equipped with compact Lie group actions. On manifolds…
An example of a four-dimensional special complex manifold with Norden metric of constant holomorphic sectional curvature is constructed via a two-parametric family of solvable Lie algebras. The curvature properties of the obtained manifold…
We prove that any compact complex surface with positive first Chern class admits an Einstein metric which is conformally related to a Kaehler metric. The key new ingredient is the existence of such a metric on the blow-up of the complex…
In this article we study the relation between flat solvmanifolds and $G_2$-geometry. First, we give a classification of 7-dimensional flat splittable solvmanifolds using the classification of finite subgroups of $\mathsf{GL}(n,\mathbb{Z})$…
We obtain Ricci flat K\"ahler metrics on complex symmetric spaces of rank two by using an explicit asymptotic model whose geometry at infinity is interpreted in the wonderful compactification of the symmetric space. We recover the metrics…
We classify the complete metrics of nonnegative sectional curvature on M^2xR^2, where M^2 is any compact 2-manifold.
We completely describe the signatures of the Ricci curvature of left-invariant Riemannian metrics on arbitrary real nilpotent Lie groups. The main idea in the proof is to exploit a link between the kernel of the Ricci endomorphism and…
We present three families of exact, cohomogeneity-one Einstein metrics in $(2n+2)$ dimensions, which are generalizations of the Stenzel construction of Ricci-flat metrics to those with a positive cosmological constant. The first family of…
