We construct a 2-parameter family of new triaxial SU(2)-invariant complete negative Einstein metrics on the complex line bundle \(\mathcal {O}(-4)\) over \(\mathbb {C}P^1\) . The metrics are conformally compact and neither Kähler nor self-dual. The proof involves using rigorous numerics to produce an approximate Einstein metric to high precision in a bounded region containing the singular orbit or “bolt”, which is then perturbed to a genuine Einstein metric using fixed-point methods. At the boundary of this region, the latter metric is sufficiently close to hyperbolic space for us to show that it indeed extends to a complete, asymptotically hyperbolic Einstein metric.
