Abstract We consider invariant Einstein metrics on the quaternionic Stiefel manifold Vpℍn of all orthonormal p-frames in ℍn. This manifold is diffeomorphic to the homogeneous space Sp(n)/Sp(n − p) and its isotropy representation contains equivalent summands. We obtain new Einstein metrics on Vpℍn ≅ Sp(n)/Sp(n − p), where n = k1 + k2 + k3 and p = n − k3. We view Vpℍn as a total space over the generalized Wallach space Sp(n)/(Sp(k1)×Sp(k2)×Sp(k3)) and over the generalized flag manifold Sp(n)/(U(p)×Sp(n − p)).

AbstractIn this paper, we study a class of homogeneous Finsler metrics of vanishing $S$-curvature on a $(4n+3)$-dimensional sphere. We find a second order ordinary differential equation that characterizes Einstein metrics with constant Ricci curvature $1$ in this class. Using this equation we show that there are infinitely many homogeneous Einstein metrics on $S^{4n+3}$ of constant Ricci curvature $1$ and vanishing $S$-curvature. They contain the canonical metric on $S^{4n+3}$ of constant sectional curvature $1$ and the Einstein metric of non-constant sectional curvature given by Jensen in 1973.

Abstract A Riemannian manifold (M, ρ) is called Einstein if the metric ρ satisfies the condition Ric(ρ) = c · ρ for some constant c. This paper is devoted to the investigation of G-invariant Einstein metrics, with additional symmetries, on some homogeneous spaces G/H of classical groups. As a consequence, we obtain new invariant Einstein metrics on some Stiefel manifolds SO(n)/SO(l). Furthermore, we show that for any positive integer p there exists a Stiefelmanifold SO(n)/SO(l) that admits at least p SO(n)-invariant Einstein metrics.
