Homogeneous Lorentz Manifolds with Simple Isometry Group
نویسنده
چکیده
Let H be a closed, noncompact subgroup of a simple Lie group G, such that G/H admits an invariant Lorentz metric. We show that if G = SO(2, n), with n ≥ 3, then the identity component H of H is conjugate to SO(1, n). Also, if G = SO(1, n), with n ≥ 3, then H is conjugate to SO(1, n− 1).

Compact Lorentz manifolds with local symmetry
We prove a structure theorem for compact aspherical Lorentz manifolds with abundant local symmetry. If M is a compact, aspherical, real-analytic, complete Lorentz manifold such that the isometry group of the universal cover has semisimple identity component, then the local isometry orbits in M are roughly fibers of a fiber bundle. A corollary is that if M has an open, dense, locally homogeneous...
متن کاملIsometry Groups and Geodesic Foliations of Lorentz Manifolds. Part Ii: Geometry of Analytic Lorentz Manifolds with Large Isometry Groups
This is part II of a series on noncompact isometry groups of Lorentz manifolds. We have introduced in part I, a compactification of these isometry groups, and called “bipolarized” those Lorentz manifolds having a “trivial ” compactification. Here we show a geometric rigidity of non-bipolarized Lorentz manifolds; that is, they are (at least locally) warped products of constant curvature Lorentz ...
متن کاملOn Homogeneous Hermite-lorentz Spaces
We define naturally Hermite-Lorentz metrics on almost-complex manifolds as special case of pseudo-Riemannian metrics compatible with the almost complex structure. We study their isometry groups.
متن کاملGraphs and Multi-graphs in Homogeneous 3-manifolds with Isometry Groups of Dimension 4
We study the existence of multi-graphs which are immersed in E3(κ, τ), having constant mean curvatureH, where E3(κ, τ) is a homogeneous, simply connected 3-manifold whose isometry group has dimension 4.
متن کاملActions of Discrete Groups on Stationary Lorentz Manifolds
We study the geometry of compact Lorentzian manifolds that admit a somewhere timelike Killing vector field, and whose isometry group has infinitely many connected components. Up to a finite cover, such manifolds are products (or amalgamated products) of a flat Lorentzian torus and a compact Riemannian (resp., lightlike) manifold.
