Affine transformations and parallel lightlike vector fields on compact Lorentzian $3$-manifolds (1404.1357v3)
Published 4 Apr 2014 in math.DG
Abstract: We describe the compact Lorentzian $3$-manifolds admitting a parallel lightlike vector field. The classification of compact Lorentzian $3$-manifolds admitting non-isometric affine diffeomorphisms follows, together with the complete description of these morphisms. Such a Lorentzian manifold is in some sense an equivariant deformation of a flat one.
