Abstract
The aim of this paper is the study of three-dimensional Lorentzian manifolds whose Ricci tensor has three equal constant eigenvalues, whose associated eigenspace is two-dimensional. A complete local classification of this class of curvature homogeneous manifolds is presented. It turns out that, if the eigenvalue is zero, these are exactly the curvature homogeneous manifolds modelled on an indecomposable, non-irreducible Lorentzian symmetric space, which were first studied in Cahen etaal. (1990), and the techniques presented in this paper can therefore be applied to obtain a complete (local) classification of these manifolds, and to construct a number of new examples of such manifolds.
