    We present a new tool for meta‐analysis, _Meta‐Essentials_, which is free of charge and easy to use. In this paper, we introduce the tool and compare its features to other tools for meta‐analysis.We also provide detailed information on the validation of the tool. Although free of charge and simple, _Meta‐Essentials_ automatically calculates effect sizes from a wide range of statistics and can be used for a wide range of meta‐analysis applications, including subgroup analysis, moderator analysis, and publication bias analyses. The confidence interval of the overall effect is automatically based on the Knapp‐Hartung adjustment of the DerSimonian‐Laird estimator. However, more advanced meta‐analysis methods such as meta‐analytical structural equation modelling and meta‐regression with multiple covariates are not available. In summary, _Meta‐Essentials_ may prove a valuable resource for meta‐analysts, including researchers, teachers, and students

    On the stability of Einstein manifolds

    Full text link
    Certain curvature conditions for stability of Einstein manifolds with respect to the Einstein-Hilbert action are given. These conditions are given in terms of quantities involving the Weyl tensor and the Bochner tensor. In dimension six, a stability criterion involving the Euler characteristic is given.Comment: 18 papers, published version.
