Abstract
We describe a global model for Lorentzian symmetric three-spaces admitting a parallel null vector field, and classify completely the surfaces with parallel second fundamental form in all Lorentzian symmetric three-spaces. Interesting differences arise with respect to the Riemannian case studied in [2]. Our results complete the classification of parallel surfaces in all three-dimensional Lorentzian homogeneous spaces.File in questo prodotto:
