Einstein metrics on the Ten-Sphere
Abstract
In this talk we give an introduction to the topic of Einstein metrics on spheres. In particular, we prove the existence of three non-round Einstein metrics with positive scalar curvature on $S^{10}.$ Previously, the only even-dimensional spheres known to admit non-round Einstein metrics were $S^6$ and $S^8.$ This talk is based on joint work with Jan Nienhaus.
