Einstein Metrics on Rational Homology 7-Spheres

Charles P. Boyer, Krzysztof Galicki, Michael Nakamaye

Published 2001-08-16Version 1

In this paper we demonstrate the existence of Sasakian-Einstein structures on certain 2-connected rational homology 7-spheres. These appear to be the first non-regular examples of Sasakian-Einstein metrics on simply connected rational homology spheres. We also briefly describe the rational homology 7-spheres that admit regular positive Sasakian structures.
