Warped product Einstein metrics on homogeneous spaces and homogeneous Ricci solitons [PDF]

, 2013
In this paper we consider connections between Ricci solitons and Einstein metrics on homogeneous spaces. We show that a semi-algebraic Ricci soliton admits an Einstein one-dimensional extension if the soliton derivation can be chosen to be normal.

Geometric thermodynamics: black holes and the meaning of the scalar curvature [PDF]

, 2014
In this paper we show that the vanishing of the scalar curvature of Ruppeiner-like metrics does not characterize the ideal gas. Furthermore, we claim through an example that flatness is not a sufficient condition to establish the absence of interactions ...
