Translation Surfaces of the Third Fundamental Form in Lorentz-Minkowski Space
In this paper we study translation surfaces with the non-degenerate third fundamental form in Lorentz- Minkowski space $mathbb{L}^{3}$. As a result, we classify translation surfaces satisfying an equation in terms of the position vector field and the Laplace operator with respect to the third fundamental form $III$ on the surface.
متن کاملIsometric actions of Heisenberg groups on compact Lorentz manifolds
We prove results toward classifying compact Lorentz manifolds on which Heisenberg groups act isometrically. We give a general construction, leading to a new example, of codimension-one actions—those for which the dimension of the Heisenberg group is one less than the dimension of the manifold. The main result is a classification of codimension-one actions, under the assumption they are real-ana...
متن کاملThe Fundamental Group of a Compact Flat Lorentz Space Form Is Virtually Polycyclic
A flat Lorentz space form is a geodesically complete Lorentzian manifold of zero curvature. It is well known (see Auslander & Markus [3]) that such a space M may be represented as a quotient R/Γ, where R" is an ^-dimensional Minkowski space (n equals the dimension of M) and Γ is a group of Lorentz isometries acting properly discontinuously and freely on R. In particular the universal covering o...
متن کاملON THE LIFTS OF SEMI-RIEMANNIAN METRICS
In this paper, we extend Sasaki metric for tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold and Sasaki-Mok metric for the frame bundle of a Riemannian manifold [I] to the case of a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi- Riemannian manifold. In fact, if E is a semi-Riemannian vector bundle over a semi-Riemannian manifold M, then by using an arbitrary (linear) connection on E, we can make E, as a...
متن کاملHolonomy and Projective Equivalence in 4-Dimensional Lorentz Manifolds⋆
A study is made of 4-dimensional Lorentz manifolds which are projectively related, that is, whose Levi-Civita connections give rise to the same (unparameterised) geodesics. A brief review of some relevant recent work is provided and a list of new results connecting projective relatedness and the holonomy type of the Lorentz manifold in question is given. This necessitates a review of the possib...
