Lorentzian geometry is the geometry of Minkowski spacetime, hence essentially of a Euclidean space, but equipped not with the standard Euclidean Riemannian metric of signature $(+,+,+,…,+)$ (which yields Euclidean geometry) but with the pseudo-Riemannian metric of signature $(−,+,+,…,+).$

A pseudo-Riemannian version of a theorem by Fubini
Guido Fubini, ``Sugli spazii che ammettono un gruppo continuo di movimenti,'' Annali di Mat., ser. 3, 8 (1903) 54.: Let $M$ be a Riemannian manifold of dimension $d\ge 3$. Its isometry group cannot be …

On sub-maximally symmetric Riemannian spaces
Is there a 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold with 8-dimensional isometry group?
Context: Guido Fubini (Annali di Mat., ser. 3, 8 (1903) 54) shows that the dimension $n$ of the isometry group of a $d$- …
