On flat pseudo-Euclidean solvable Malcev algebras

A pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebra is a Malcev algebra equipped with a non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form. In this paper, we introduce a curvature operator for pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebras, generalizing the notion of curvature for pseudo-Euclidean Lie algebras. We define flat pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebras and show that every flat Euclidean solvable Malcev algebra which is also a Lie algebra remains flat in the classical Lie algebra curvature sense. Furthermore, we develop the flat double extension construction for flat pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebras and prove that every flat Lorentzian Malcev algebra with a degenerate center can be obtained via the flat double extension of a flat Euclidean Malcev algebra. Moreover, we demonstrate that all flat Lorentzian nilpotent Malcev algebras arise from the flat double extension of a Euclidean abelian Lie algebras. Finally, we establish that any flat Lorentzian nilpotent Malcev algebra is necessarily a Lie algebra and is flat in the classical Lie algebra curvature sense.

Einstein Lorentzian solvable unimodular Lie groups

The goal of this paper is to show that many key results found in the study of Einstein Lorentzian nilpotent Lie algebras can still hold in the more general settings of unimodular Lie algebras and (completely) solvable Lie algebras.

On Einstein Lorentzian nilpotent Lie groups

In this paper, we study Lorentzian left invariant Einstein metrics on nilpotent Lie groups. We show that if the center of such Lie groups is degenerate then they are Ricci-flat and their Lie algebras can be obtained by the double extension process from an abelian Euclidean Lie algebra. We show that all nilpotent Lie groups up to dimension $5$ endowed with a Lorentzian Einstein left invariant metric have degenerate center and we use this fact to give a complete classification of these metrics. We show that if $\mathfrak{g}$ is the Lie algebra of a nilpotent Lie group endowed with a Lorentzian left invariant Einstein metric with non zero scalar curvature then the center $Z(\mathfrak{g})$ of $\mathfrak{g}$ is nondegenerate Euclidean, the derived ideal $[\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{g}]$ is nondegenerate Lorentzian and $Z(\mathfrak{g})\subset[\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{g}]$. We give the first examples of Ricci-flat Lorentzian nilpotent Lie algebra with nondegenerate center.
