摘要：
In this paper we provide an invariant characterization for all spacetimes with all polynomial scalar invariants constructed from the Riemann tensor and its covariant derivatives vanishing except those zeroth-order curvature invariants expressed as polynomials in., the cosmological constant. Using this invariant description we provide an explicit forms for the metric.
