Flat Homogeneous Pseudo-Riemannian Manifolds
The complete homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of constant non-zero curvature were classified up to isometry in 1961 [1]. In the same year, a structure theory [2] was developed for complete fiat homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. Here that structure theory is sharpened to a classification. This completes the classification of complete homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of arbit...
متن کاملSome Ricci Flat (pseudo-) Riemannian Geometries
We define a class of two dimensional surfaces conformally related to minimal surfaces in flat three dimensional geometries. By the utility of the metrics of such surfaces we give a construction of the metrics of 2N dimensional Ricci flat (pseudo-) Riemannian geometries.
متن کاملSpaces of pseudo-Riemannian geodesics and pseudo-Euclidean billiards
Many classical facts in Riemannian geometry have their pseudoRiemannian analogs. For instance, the spaces of space-like and timelike geodesics on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold have natural symplectic structures (just like in the Riemannian case), while the space of light-like geodesics has a natural contact structure. We discuss the geometry of these structures in detail, as well as introduce an...
متن کاملSpaces of pseudo - Riemannian geodesics and pseudo - Euclidean billiards Boris
In pseudo-Riemannian geometry the spaces of space-like and timelike geodesics on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold have natural symplectic structures (just like in the Riemannian case), while the space of light-like geodesics has a natural contact structure. Furthermore, the space of all geodesics has a structure of a Jacobi manifold. We describe the geometry of these structures and their generaliza...
متن کاملFrom the Lorentz Transformation Group in Pseudo-Euclidean Spaces to Bi-gyrogroups
The Lorentz transformation of order $(m=1,n)$, $ninNb$, is the well-known Lorentz transformation of special relativity theory. It is a transformation of time-space coordinates of the pseudo-Euclidean space $Rb^{m=1,n}$ of one time dimension and $n$ space dimensions ($n=3$ in physical applications). A Lorentz transformation without rotations is called a {it boost}. Commonly, the ...
