Abstract:
By developing the method introduced by Kobayashi in 1960's, Boyer,
Galicki and Kollár found many examples of simply connected Sasaki-
Einstein 5-manifolds. For such examples they veried existence of orbifold
Kähler-Einstein metrics on various log del Pezzo surfaces. Their
verification is essentially based on the $\alpha$-invariant method developed
by Tian, Nadel, Demailly and Kollár. Using the $\delta$-invariant instead of
the $\alpha$-invariant on the leaf spaces of the Reeb foliations of Sasakian
5-manifolds, I complete the classication of simply connected rational
homology 5-spheres that admits Sasaki-Einstein metrics. This is a joint
work with Joonyeong Won.
