Abstract |
|
The purpose of this article is to characterize Minkowski general G-spaces. The unit sphere K is shown to have at most four components. Assume the space R is not reducible. If K has one component, R is an ordinary Minkowski G-space. If K has two components they are quadrics and R is nearly pseudoeuclidean. When K has three components, one is a quadric and the other two are strictly convex. The unit sphere has four components only in dimension two. |
