Classification of homogeneous Einstein metrics on pseudo-hyperbolic spaces (1309.1390v3)

Abstract: We classify the effective and transitive actions of a Lie group $G$ on an n-dimensional non-degenerate hyperboloid (also called real pseudo-hyperbolic space), under the assumption that $G$ is a closed, connected Lie subgroup of $SO_0(n-r,r+1)$, the connected component of the indefinite special orthogonal group. Assuming additionally that $G$ acts completely reducible on $\mathbb R^{n+1}$, we also obtain that any $G$-homogeneous Einstein pseudo-Riemannian metric on a real, complex or quaternionic pseudo-hyperbolic space, or on a para-complex or para-quaternionic projective space is homothetic to either the canonical metric or the Einstein metric of the canonical variation of a Hopf pseudo-Riemannian submersion.
