Existence of extremal metrics on almost homogeneous manifolds of cohomogeneity one —IV

This paper is the first of a series of papers in which we generalize our results in (Asian J. of Math. 4, 817–830 (2000); J. Geom. Anal. 12, 63–79 (2002); Intern. J. Math. 14, 259–287 (2003)) to the general complex compact almost homogeneous manifolds of real cohomogeneity one. In this paper we deal with the exceptional case of the G2 action (Cf. Intern. J. Math. 14, 259–287 (2003), p. 285). In particular, we prove the existence of Kähler-Einstein metric on this manifold.
