Géométries Lorentziennes de dimension 3 : classification et complétude

We classify three-dimensional Lorentz homogeneous spaces G/I having a compact manifold locally modeled on them. We prove a completeness result: any compact locally homogeneous Lorentz threefold M is isometric to a quotient of a Lorentz homogeneous space G/I by a discrete subgroup Γ of G acting properly and freely on G/I. Moreover, if I is noncompact, G/I is isometric to a Lie group L endowed with a left invariant Lorentz metric, where L is isomorphic to one of the following Lie groups: \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\bf R}^3, \widetilde{SL(2, {\bf R})}, He\,is \,{\rm or}\, SOL.$$\end{document}If L is not \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\widetilde{SL(2, {\bf R})}}$$\end{document} , then M admits a finite cover which is a quotient of L by a lattice.
