Abstract

We obtain a Kähler Einstein structure on the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold of constant negative curvature. Moreover, the holomorphic sectional curvature of this Kähler Einstein structure is constant. Similar results are obtained for a tube around zero section in the tangent bundle, in the case of the Riemannian manifolds of constant positive curvature.
