Space form conjecture for compact pseudo-Riemannian manifolds
Space form conjecture for compact pseudo-Riemannian manifolds
A pseudo-Riemannian manifold of signature is understood here to be compact and complete, with constant sectional curvature . Space form conjecture. There exists such a manifold if and only if belongs to the list specified in Example (4) of the source.
This conjecture concerns the classification of compact pseudo-Riemannian space forms and is linked to compact standard quotients of reductive homogeneous spaces. The source records substantial classification results for irreducible symmetric spaces and an announced resolution in a class with simple , but does not state that the full conjecture is resolved.
