Curvature identities for Einstein manifolds of dimensions 5 and 6

Curvature identities for Einstein manifolds of dimensions 5 and 6

Patterson discussed the curvature identities on Riemannian manifolds based on the skew-symmetric properties of the generalized Kronecker delta, and a curvature identity for any 6-dimensional Riemannian manifold was independently derived from the Chern-Gauss-Bonnet Theorem. In this paper, we provide the explicit formulae of Patterson's curvature identity that holds on 5-dimensional …
