Review text

Let \(R\) be a Jordan-Szabó algebraic covariant derivative curvature tensor on a vector space of signature \((p,q)\). The authors show that \(R = 0\), whenever \(q \equiv 1\) mod \(2\) and \(p < q\) or \(q \equiv 2\) mod \(4\) and \(p< q-1\). The geometrical fact that any pointwise totally isotropic pseudo-Riemannian manifold with such kind of signature is locally symmetric, yields a corollary. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1029.00028].
