Abstract
Abstract We prove that, for a compact, 3-dimensional, real-analytic, Lorentzian manifold, if the group of conformal transformations does not preserve any metric in the conformal class, then the metric is conformally flat.
期刊介绍:
The Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik is the oldest mathematics periodical still in existence. Founded in 1826 by August Leopold Crelle and edited by him until his death in 1855, it soon became widely known under the name of Crelle"s Journal. In the almost 180 years of its existence, Crelle"s Journal has developed to an outstanding scholarly periodical with one of the worldwide largest circulations among mathematics journals. It belongs to the very top mathematics periodicals, as listed in ISI"s Journal Citation Report.
