摘要
We show that a compact Lorentzian locally symmetric space is geodesically complete if the Lorentzian factor in the local de Rham-Wu decomposition is of Cahen-Wallach type or if the maximal flat factor is one-dimensional and time-like. Our proof uses a recent result by Mehidi and Zeghib and an earlier result by Romero and Sanchez.
