Purely radiative irrotational dust spacetimes

We consider irrotational dust spacetimes in the full non-linear regime which are "purely radiative" in the sense that the gravitational field satisfies the covariant transverse conditions div(H) = div(E) = 0. Within this family we show that the Bianchi class A spatially homogeneous dust models are uniquely characterised by the condition that $H$ is diagonal in the shear-eigenframe.
