| Description | It is shown how one can apply the classification of the holonomy algebras of Lorentzian manifolds to solve some problems. In particular, a new proof to the classification of Lorentzian manifolds with recurrent curvature tensor is given and the classification of two-symmetric Lorentzian manifolds is explained. Then the conformally recurrent Lorentzian manifolds are classified and the recurrent symmetric bilinear forms on these manifolds are described. |
