The prescribed Ricci curvature problem on homogeneous spaces

Speaker: Artem Pulemotov, University of Queensland

Location: Warren Weaver Hall 1314

Date: Monday, March 25, 2019, 11:30 a.m.

Synopsis:

We will discuss the problem of recovering the "shape" of a Riemannian manifold \(M\) from its Ricci curvature. After reviewing the relevant background material and the history of the subject, we will focus on the case where \(M\) is a homogeneous space for a compact Lie group. Partly based on joint work with Mark Gould.
