There are two known classes of gravitational instantons with quadratic volume growth at infinity, known as type and . Gravitational instantons of type were previously classified by Chen–Chen. In this paper, we prove a classification theorem for gravitational instantons. We determine the topology and prove existence of “uniform” coordinates at infinity for both ALG and gravitational instantons. We also prove a result regarding the relationship between ALG gravitational instantons of order and those of order 2.
