Abstract:
We show four Legendrian dualities between pseudo-spheres in Minkowski space as a basic theorem. We can apply such dualities for constructing extrinsic differential geometry of spacelike hypersurfaces in pseudo-spheres. In this paper we stick to spacelike hypersurfaces in the lightcone and establish an extrinsic differential geometry which we call the lightcone differential geometry.
Key words and phrases:Legendrian duality, spacelike hypersurfaces, the lightcone, conformally flat Riemannian manifolds.
