Geometry & Topology Seminar

The Einstein Equation on Manifolds with Large Symmetry Groups

Timothy Buttsworth (Queensland)

Thursday 19 April 12:00–13:00 in Carslaw 351.

Please join us for lunch after the talk.

Abstract: In this talk I will discuss the problem of finding Einstein metrics in the homogeneous and cohomogeneity one setting. In particular, I will describe a recent result concerning existence of solutions to the Dirichlet problem for cohomogeneity one Einstein metrics.
