Existence of homogeneous metrics with prescribed Ricci curvature
Séminaire de théorie spectrale et géométrie, Tome 33 (2015-2016), pp. 47-54.

Consider a compact Lie group G and a closed subgroup H<G. Suppose T is a positive-definite G-invariant (0,2)-tensor field on the homogeneous space M=G/H. In this note, we state a sufficient condition for the existence of a G-invariant Riemannian metric on M whose Ricci curvature coincides with cT for some c>0. This condition is, in fact, necessary if the isotropy representation of M splits into two inequivalent irreducible summands. After stating the main result, we work out an example.
