We introduce conformally flat Fefferman-Lorentz manifold of parabolic type as a special class of Lorentz parabolic manifolds. It is a smooth (2n+2)-manifold locally modeled on (Û(n+1, 1), S 2n+1,1). As the terminology suggests, when a Fefferman-Lorentz manifold M is conformally flat, M is a Fefferman-Lorentz manifold of parabolic type. We shall discuss which compact manifolds occur as a conformally flat Fefferman-Lorentz manifold of parabolic type.
In this paper we survey some recent results on rank one symmetric space.
We investigate the geometry at infinity of the so-called “gravitational instantons”, i.e. asymptotically flat hyperkähler four-manifolds, in relation with their volume growth. In particular, we prove that gravitational instantons with cubic volume growth are ALF, namely asymptotic to a circle fibration over a Euclidean three-space, with fibers of asymptotically constant length.
Indecomposable Lorentzian holonomy algebras, except and , are not semi-simple; they possibly belong to four families of algebras. All four families are realized as families of holonomy algebras: we describe the corresponding set of germs of metrics in each case.
