概要 Though Einstein’s equation is well studied, relatively few Einstein metrics have been written in terms of explicit formulae via radicals. In this talk we discuss many such examples that occur as anti-self dual Einstein metrics and describe their singularities. 
 The construction heavily relies upon the theory of isomonodromic deformation and related algebraic geometry developed by N.J. Hitchin in the 1990s and the equivalence of the anti-self dual Einstein equation to a certain Painlevé VI equation under some symmetry assumptions discovered by K.P. Tod. The solution to Painlevé VI is achieved through a relation of its solution to pairs of conics obeying the Poncelet’s porism by exploiting Cayley’s criterion.
 In this talk we discuss some important cases that are not well fleshed out in the literature, such as the solution of Painlevé VI associated with the Poncelet porism where the inscribing-circumscribing polygons have an even number of sides.
 Moreover, we provide some explicit metrics with unusual cone angle singularities along a singular real projective plane that were speculated about by Atiyah and LeBrun and discuss their sectional curvature.

セミナーは昼食時に行いますので,お弁当を食べながら気楽にご参加下さい. 特に大学院生の方にとって,同じ数学でも分野が違う講演を聞く機会はあまり ないと思います.このセミナーは教員が非専門家向けに講演する貴重な機会です. 数理的な視野を広げる意味でも,英語に触れる意味でも,分野に関係なく気軽にご参加いただければと思います.また,意欲のある学部3年生,4年生の参加も大歓迎です.ふらっと覗いてみてください.
