三维常曲率不变量洛伦兹时空

Lorentzian spacetimes with constant curvature invariants in three dimensions

Alan Coley, Sigbjorn Hervik, Nicos Pelavas

摘要:

在本文中,我们研究洛伦兹时空中的所有多项式标量不变量构造的黎曼张量和协变导数是常数(CSI时空)在三维空间。我们明确地确定所有这样的CSI度量,并表明,对于每个CSI与特定的常数不变量有一个局部均匀的时空与完全相同的常数不变量。我们证明了一个三维CSI时空要么是(i)局部齐性的,要么是(ii)局部的Kundt时空。此外,我们还证明了存在一个空框架,其中的Riemann(Ricci)张量及其导数的提升阶为零,在每一阶上都有恒定的提升权重零分量。最后,这些时空可以显式地从局部齐次时空和消失的标量不变时空构造。

英文摘要:

In this paper we study Lorentzian spacetimes for which all polynomial scalar invariants constructed from the Riemann tensor and its covariant derivatives are constant (CSI spacetimes) in three dimensions. We determine all such CSI metrics explicitly, and show that for every CSI with particular constant invariants there is a locally homogeneous spacetime with precisely the same constant invariants. We prove that a three-dimensional CSI spacetime is either (i) locally homogeneous or (ii) it is locally a Kundt spacetime. Moreover, we show that there exists a null frame in which the Riemann (Ricci) tensor and its derivatives are of boost order zero with constant boost weight zero components at each order. Lastly, these spacetimes can be explicitly constructed from locally homogeneous spacetimes and vanishing scalar invariant spacetimes.
