    Abstract

    We show that the space RpRc(W2ng ) of metrics with positive Ricci curvature on the manifold W2ng := g(Sn × Sn) has nontrivial rational homology if n ≡ 3 (mod 4) and g are both sufficiently large. The same argument applies to RpRc(W2ng N) provided that N is spin and W2ng N admits a Ricci positive metric.
