Abstract (Original language)
Résumé

In this paper, we study the irreducible representation of $PSL (2, R)$ in $PSL (5, R)$ . This action preserves a quadratic form with signature $(2, 3)$ . Thus, it acts conformally on the 3-dimensional Einstein universe $E {in}^{1, 2}$ . We describe the orbits induced in $E {in}^{1, 2}$ and its complement in $R P^{4}$ . This work completes the study in [2], and is one element of the classification of cohomogeneity one actions on $E {in}^{1, 2}$ [5].

Dans cet article, nous étudions l'action irréductible de $PSL (2, R)$ dans $PSL (5, R)$ . Cette action préserve une forme quadratique de signature $(2, 3)$ . Elle sur agit donc conformément sur l'univers d'Einstein $E {in}^{1, 2}$ de dimension 3, ainsi que sur son complément dans $R P^{4}$ . Ce travail complète l'étude préliminaire dans [2], et est un élément de la classification des actions sur $E {in}^{1, 2}$ de cohomogenéité un [5].
