Abstract
This paper illustrates the value of the Newman—Penrose complex null tetrad formalism by using it to obtain all algebraically special Einstein spaces admitting three-parameter groups of motions acting on timelike surfaces containing the repeated principal null direction. Taken together with earlier work, this enables us to give a complete list of Einstein spaces which are both algebraically special and hypersurface-homogeneous or homogeneous.
