Abstract: Given an exceptional compact simple Lie group $G$ we describe new left-invariant Einstein metrics which are not naturally reductive. In particular, we consider fibrations of $G$ over flag manifolds with a certain kind of isotropy representation and we construct the Einstein equation with respect to the induced left-invariant metrics. Then we apply a technique based on Gr"obner bases and classify the real solutions of the associated algebraic systems. For the Lie group ${mG}_2$ we obtain the first known example of a left-invariant Einstein metric, which is not naturally reductive. Moreover, for the Lie groups ${mE}_7$ and ${mE}_8$, we conclude that there exist non-isometric non-naturally reductive Einstein metrics, which are $mAd(K)$-invariant by different Lie subgroups $K$.

Review text

Let \(G\) be an exceptional compact simple Lie group. The authors introduce a new left-invariant Einstein metrics (not naturally reductive). For the exceptional Lie group \(G_2\) the first known example of a left-invariant Einstein metric is constructed. For the Lie groups \(E_7\) and \(E_8\), the authors prove that there exist non-isometric non-naturally reductive Einstein metrics, which are \(\mathrm{Ad}(K)\)-invariant by some Lie subgroups \(K\).
