Title:
Riemannian manifolds with special holonomy and special curvature

Speaker:
Robert Bryant

Abstract:
While the local generality of metrics with special holonomy is now well-understood and the existence of complete or even compact examples is well-established, the construction of explicit examples remains a challenge. An approach that has been followed with great success is to look for examples with large symmetry groups, for this often reduces the problem to studying systems of ordinary differential equations.
