Pseudo-isotropic Lorentzian centroaffine hypersurfaces 2 (Q2159711)

The authors classify locally 2 and 3 dimensional pseudoisotropic Lorentzian centroaffine hypersurfaces with vanishing \(K^2\) where \(K\) is the tensor given by the difference of the induced connection and the Levi-Civita. In the 2-dimensional case they prove Theorem. Let \(F:M\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^3\) be a pseudo-isotropic Lorentzian centro-affine surface with \(K^2\) vanishing identically, then in a neighborhood of \(p\) where \(K\) does not vanish, \(F\) is affine equivalent to \[ F(u,v)=-\tilde{\epsilon} a_1(u,v)A(u)-\tilde{\epsilon} A'(u) \] where \(a_1\) satisfies \[ \dfrac{\partial}{\partial u}(a_1)=\dfrac{1}{2}a_1^2 +\varphi(u) \] for some differential function \(\varphi\), and \(A\) a vector valued function verifying \[ A'''(u)+2\varphi A'(u)+(\varphi'(u)+\tilde{\epsilon})A(u) =0. \] While for the 3-dimensional case they prove Theorem. Let \(F:M\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^4\) be a pseudo-isotropic Lorentzian centro-affine hypersurface with \(K^2\) vanishing identically, then in a neighborhood of \(p\) where \(K\) does not vanish, \(F\) is affine equivalent to one of the following immersions \begin{itemize} \item[1.] \(F(u,v,w)=(vA_1(u)+A_2(u))\cos w+B(u)\sin w\) where \(A_1\), \(A_2\) and \(B\) are differentiable vector valued functions satisfying \begin{align*} A_1'&=-f_1A_1-A_2,\\ A_2''&=A_1+f_1A_2'+f_2B,\\ B'&=-f_2A_1 \end{align*} with \(f_1\) and \(f_2\) differentiable functions. \item[2.] \(F(u,v,w)=(vA_1(u)+A_2(u))\cosh w+B(u)\sinh w\) where \(A_1\), \(A_2\) and \(B\) are differentiable vector valued functions satisfying \begin{align*} A_1'&=-f_1A_1+A_2,\\ A_2''&=A_1+f_1A_2'+f_2B,\\ B'&=-f_2A_1 \end{align*} with \(f_1\) and \(f_2\) differentiable functions. \item[3.] \(F(u,v,w)=(vA_1(u)+A_2(u))e^w+B(u)e^{-w}\) where \(B\) is a constant vector and \(A_1\), \(A_2\) are vector valued functions satisfying \begin{align*} A_1'&=2\phi B,\\ A_2''&=\varphi A_2'+\phi^{-1}A_1 \end{align*} where \(\varphi\) is a differentiable function and \(\phi(u)=e^{\int\varphi du}.\) \end{itemize}
