Abstract

A Riemannian Einstein solvmanifold (possibly, any noncompact homogeneous Einstein space) is almost completely determined by the nilradical of its Lie algebra. A nilpotent Lie algebra which can serve as the nilradical of an Einstein metric solvable Lie algebra is called an Einstein nilradical. We give a classification of two-step nilpotent Einstein nilradicals with two-dimensional center. Informally, the defining matrix pencil must have no nilpotent blocks in the canonical form and no elementary divisors of a very high multiplicity. We also show that the dual to a two-step Einstein nilradical is not in general an Einstein nilradical.
