Strongly Hermitian Einstein-Maxwell Solutions on Ruled Surfaces

This paper produces explicit strongly Hermitian Einstein-Maxwell solutions on the smooth compact $4$-manifolds that are $S^2$-bundles over compact Riemann surfaces of any genus. This generalizes the existence results by C. LeBrun in arXiv:1411.3992 and arXiv:1504.06669. Moreover, by calculating the (normalized) Einstein-Hilbert functional of our examples we generalize Theorem E of arXiv:1504.06669, which speaks to the abundance of Hermitian Einstein-Maxwell solutions on such manifolds. As a bonus, we exhibit certain pairs of strongly Hermitian Einstein-Maxwell solutions, first found in arXiv:1504.06669, on the first Hirzebruch surface in a form which clearly shows that they are conformal to a common Kähler metric. In particular, this yields a non-trivial example of non-uniqueness of positive constant scalar curvature metrics in a given conformal class.
