Invariant pseudo-Kähler metrics on generalized flag manifolds

Invariant Einstein Metrics on Flag Manifolds with Four Isotropy Summands

A generalized flag manifold is a homogeneous space of the form G/K, where K is the centralizer of a torus in a compact connected semisimple Lie group G. We classify all flag manifolds with four isotropy summands by the use of t-roots. We present new G-invariant Einstein metrics by solving explicity the Einstein equation. We also examine the isometric problem for these Einstein metrics. 2000 Mat...

Invariant Einstein Metrics on Generalized Flag Manifolds with Two Isotropy Summands

Let M = G/K be a generalized flag manifold, that is the adjoint orbit of a compact semisimple Lie group G. We use the variational approach to find invariant Einstein metrics for all flag manifolds with two isotropy summands. We also determine the nature of these Einstein metrics as critical points of the scalar curvature functional under fixed volume. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. Pr...

On invariant operations on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds

Invariant polynomial operators on Riemannian manifolds are well understood and the knowledge of full lists of them becomes an effective tool in Riemannian geometry, [Atiyah, Bott, Patodi, 73] is a very good example. The present short paper is in fact a continuation of [Slovák, 92] where the classification problem is reconsidered under very mild assumptions and still complete classification resu...

Quasi-potentials and Kähler–Einstein metrics on flag manifolds, II

For a homogeneous space G/P , where P is a parabolic subgroup of a complex semisimple group G, an explicit Kähler–Einstein metric on it is constructed. The Einstein constant for the metric is 1. Therefore, the intersection number of the first Chern class of the holomorphic tangent bundle of G/P coincides with the volume of G/P with respect to this Kähler–Einstein metric, thus enabling us to com...
