Curvature homogeneous manifolds in dimension 4

Abstract: We classify complete curvature homogeneous metrics on simply connected four dimensional manifolds which are invariant under a cohomogeneity one action. We show that they are either isometric to a symmetric space with one of its cohomogeneity one actions, or to a complete example by Tsukada on the normal bundle of the Veronese surface in CP^2. Along the way we show (in any dimension) that via an equivariant diffeomorphism the functions describing the metric can be partially diagonalized, a fact that may be useful for other problems as well
