Homogeneous Einstein Metrics on Euclidean Spaces are Einstein Solvmanifolds
We show that homogeneous Einstein metrics on Euclidean spaces are Einstein solvmanifolds, using that they admit periodic, integrally minimal foliations by homogeneous hypersurfaces. For the geometric flow induced by the orbit-Einstein condition, we construct a Lyapunov function based on curvature estimates which come from real GIT.
About Maths Colloquium
The Mathematics Colloquium is directed at students and academics working in the fields of pure and applied mathematics, and statistics.
We aim to present expository lectures that appeal to our wide audience.
