Mirror symmetry and conformal flatness in general Relativity

P. Gravel and C. Gauthier

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2004, vol. 2004, 1-4

Abstract:

Using symmetry arguments only, we show that every spacetime with mirror-symmetric spatial sections is necessarily conformally flat. The general form of the Ricci tensor of such spacetimes is also determined.
