Global differential geometry of Lorentz manifolds, manifolds with indefinite metrics (53C50) Einstein's equations (general structure, canonical formalism, Cauchy problems) (83C05)

Abstract: Necessary and sufficient conditions for a space-time to be conformal to an Einstein space-time are interpreted in terms of curvature restrictions for the corresponding Cartan conformal connection.
