Funder: University of CambridgeWe construct several examples of compactifications of Einstein metrics. We
show that the Eguchi--Hanson instanton admits a projective compactification
which is non--metric, and that a metric cone over any (pseudo)--Riemannian
manifolds admits a metric projective compactification. We construct a
para--c--projective compactification of neutral signature Einstein metrics
canonically defined on certain rank--n affine bundles M over
n-dimensional manifolds endowed with projective structures
