Is there an analogue to the eight Thurston geometries for Lorentz metrics? If so, how many "disctinct" geometries are there in the Lorentzian case? And which closed 3-manifolds admit metrics which a …

This is my first question on this site. I hope it is not inappropriate on MO. Myers and Steenrod proved 1939 that the isometry group of a Riemannian manifold is a lie group. I add a picture where Ko …
