Global differential geometry of Lorentz manifolds, manifolds with indefinite metrics (53C50)

Abstract: We prove the existence of compact pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with parallel Weyl tensor which are neither conformally flat nor locally symmetric, and represent all indefinite metric signatures in all dimensions $,nge5$. Until now such manifolds were only known to exist in dimensions $,n=3j+2$, where $,j,$ is any positive integer [11]. As in [11], our examples are diffeomorphic to nontrivial torus bundles over the circle and arise from a quotient-manifold construction applied to suitably chosen discrete isometry groups of diffeomorphically-Euclidean "model" manifolds.
