We study conformal Fefferman-Lorentz manifolds introduced by Fefferman. To do so, we introduce Fefferman-Lorentz structure on (2n+2)-dimensional manifolds. By using causal conformal vector fields preserving that structure, we shall establish two theorems on compact Fefferman-Lorentz manifolds: One is the coincidence of…

Study shows compact Lorentz manifolds can't have closed geodesics.

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 ``bi-polarized'' those Lorentz manifolds having a ``trivial '' compactification. Here we show a geometric rigidity of non-bi-polarized Lorentz manifolds; …

A world sheet in Lorentz-Minkowski space is a timelike submanifold consisting of a one-parameter family of spacelike submanifolds in Lorentz-Minkowski space. In this paper we investigate differential geometry of world sheets in Lorentz-Minkowski space as an application of the theory of big wave fronts.

The three-dimensional Heisenberg group $H_3$ has three left-invariant Lorentz metrics $g_1$, $g_2$ and $g_3$. They are not isometric each other. In this paper, we characterize the left-invariant Lorentzian metric $g_1$ as a Lorentz Ricci soliton. This Ricci soliton $g_1$ is a shrinking non-gradient Ricci soliton. Likew…

A condition of Osserman type, called $φ$-null Osserman condition, is introduced and studied in the context of Lorentz globally framed $f$-manifolds. An explicit example shows the naturalness of this condition in the setting of Lorentz $\mathcal{S}$-manifolds. We prove that a Lorentz $\mathcal{S}$-manifold with constant…

We classify isometries of compact Lorentz manifolds.

This is the first part of a series on non-compact groups acting isometrically on compact Lorentz manifolds. This subject was recently investigated by many authors.

We study minimal Lorentz surfaces in the pseudo-Euclidean 4-space with neutral metric whose first normal space is two-dimensional and whose Gauss curvature $K$ and normal curvature $\varkappa$ satisfy the inequality $K^2-\varkappa^2 >0$. Such surfaces we call minimal Lorentz surfaces of general type. On any surface of …

We show a geometric rigidity of isometric actions of non compact (semisimple) Lie groups on Lorentz manifolds. Namely, we show that the manifold has a warped product structure of a Lorentz manifold with constant curvature by a Riemannian manifold.

In contrast, so far very few results on minimal Lorentz surfaces in indefinite space forms are know…

We study Lorentz hypersurfaces $M_{1}^{n}$ in $E_{1}^{n+1}$ satisfying $\triangle \vec {H}= α\vec {H}$ with non diagonal shape operator, having complex eigenvalues. We prove that every such Lorentz hypersurface in $E_{1}^{n+1}$ having at most five distinct principal curvatures has constant mean curvature.
