Contents Chapter 1. Introduction Chapter 2 Cahen-Wallach spaces Chapter 3. Discrete subgroups of the isometry group Chapter 4. Proper and cocompact actions on Cahen-Wallach spaces Chapter 5. The real case Chapter 6. Good subspaces and the imaginary case Chapter 7. The general case Chapter 8. Properties of compact quotients and their fundamental groups
Summary Indecomposable symmetric Lorentzian manifolds of non-constant curvature are called Cahen-Wallach spaces. Their isometry classes are described by continuous families of real parameters. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of compact quotients of Cahen-Wallach spaces in terms of these parameters
