摘要:
For each connected and simply connected three-dimensional non-unimodular Lie group, we classify the left invariant Lorentzian met-rics up to automorphism, and study the extent to which curvature can be altered by a change of metric. Thereby we obtain the Ricci operator, the scalar curvature, and the sectional curvatures as functions of left invariant Lorentzian metrics on each of these groups.Our study is a continuation and extension of the previous studies done in [3] for Riemannian metrics and in [1] for Lorentzian metrics on unimodular Lie groups.
