The purpose of this paper is to investigate Ricci-flatness of left-invariant Lorentzian metrics on 2-step nilpotent Lie groups. We first show that if , is a Ricci-flat left-invariant Lorentzian metric on a 2-step nilpotent Lie group N , then the restriction of , to the center of the Lie algebra of N is degenerate. We then characterize the 2-step nilpotent Lie groups which can be endowed with a Ricci-flat left-invariant Lorentzian metric, and we deduce from this that a Heisenberg Lie group...
