Berger's inequality for Einstein manifolds

Berger's inequality for Einstein manifolds

In mathematics — specifically, in differential topology — Berger's inequality for Einstein manifolds is the statement that any 4-dimensional Einstein manifold ("M", "g") has non-negative Euler characteristic "χ"("M") ≥ 0. The inequality is named after the French mathematician Marcel Berger.
