Abstract

Forms of Chern-Simons type associated to homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian structures are considered. The corresponding secondary classes are a measure of the lack of a homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian space to be locally symmetric. Explicit computations are done for some pseudo- Riemannian Lie groups and their compact quotients. © 2005 Rocky Mountain Mathematics Consortium.
