A ug 2 00 2 New Einstein Metrics on 8 # ( S 2 × S 3 )
Recently, the authors [BG2] introduced a new method for showing the existence of Sasakian-Einstein metrics on compact simply connected 5-dimensional spin manifolds. This method was based on work of Demailly and Kollár [DK] who gave sufficient algebraic conditions on log del Pezzo surfaces anticanonically embedded in weighted projective spaces to guarantee the existence of a Kähler-Einstein orbi...
متن کاملThe Sasakian Geometry of the Heisenberg Group
In this note I study the Sasakian geometry associated to the standard CR structure on the Heisenberg group, and prove that the Sasaki cone coincides with the set of extremal Sasakian structures. Moreover, the scalar curvature of these extremal metrics is constant if and only if the metric has Φsectional curvature −3. I also briefly discuss some relations with the well-know sub-Riemannian geomet...
متن کاملSasakian Geometry, Hypersurface Singularities, and Einstein Metrics Charles P. Boyer and Krzysztof Galicki
This review article has grown out of notes for the three lectures the second author presented during the XXIV-th Winter School of Geometry and Physics in Srni, Czech Republic, in January of 2004. Our purpose is twofold. We want give a brief introduction to some of the techniques we have developed over the last 5 years while, at the same time, we summarize all the known results. We do not give a...
متن کاملThe Sasaki Cone and Extremal Sasakian Metrics
We study the Sasaki cone of a CR structure of Sasaki type on a given closed manifold. We introduce an energy functional over the cone, and use its critical points to single out the strongly extremal Reeb vectors fields. Should one such vector field be a member of the extremal set, the scalar curvature of a Sasaki extremal metric representing it would have the smallest L2-norm among all Sasakian...
متن کاملEinstein Metrics on Connected Sums Of
It is still very poorly understood which 5-manifolds carry an Einstein metric with positive constant. By Myers' theorem, the fundamental group of such a manifold is finite, therefore it is reasonable to concentrate on the simply connected case. The most familiar examples are connected sums of k copies of S 2 × S 3. For k ≤ 9, Einstein metrics on these were constructed by Boyer, Galicki and Naka...
