On conformal Lorentzian length spaces (Q6186707)

In the last few years, interest in studying spacetimes with nonregular metric tensor increased. Indeed, modeling certain types of matter in spacetime may require a non-regular solution of Einstein's equation. This led to the definition of Lorentzian length spaces. Many basic results in Lorentzian geometry and causality theory can be proved independently of the concept of differentiability, such as the limit curve theorem. Moreover, it was shown that globally hyperbolic Lorentzian length spaces can be characterized by using Cauchy surfaces, like in the smooth case. In this paper, the authors continue the study of Lorentzian length spaces. They introduce the concept of conformal Lorentzian length spaces and prove a novel version of the limit curve theorem. Finally, they characterize global hyperbolic and causally simple Lorentzian length spaces.
