A supplement to the classification of flat homogeneous spaces of signature ( m , 2 ) Wolfgang Globke

چکیده
Duncan and Ihrig (1993) gave a classification of the flat homogeneous spaces of metric signature (m, 2), provided that a certain condition on the development image of these spaces holds. In this note we show that this condition can be dropped, so that Duncan and Ihrig’s classification is in fact the full classification for signature (m, 2).

متن کاملOn 5-dimensional 2-step homogeneous randers nilmanifolds of Douglas type
In this paper we first obtain the non-Riemannian Randers metrics of Douglas type on two-step homogeneous nilmanifolds of dimension five. Then we explicitly give the flag curvature formulae and the $S$-curvature formulae for the Randers metrics of Douglas type on these spaces. Moreover, we prove that the only simply connected five-dimensional two-step homogeneous Randers nilmanifolds of D...

A method, due tó Elie Cartan, is used to give an algebraic classification of the non-reductive homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of dimension four. Only one case with Lorentz signature can be Einstein without having constant curvature, and two cases with (2,2) signature are Einstein of which one is Ricci-flat. If a four-dimensional non-reductive homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifold is s...

متن کاملLow dimensional flat manifolds with some classes of Finsler metric
Flat Riemannian manifolds are (up to isometry) quotient spaces of the Euclidean space R^n over a Bieberbach group and there are an exact classification of of them in 2 and 3 dimensions. In this paper, two classes of flat Finslerian manifolds are stuided and classified in dimensions 2 and 3.
