Abstract

Null Geodesic Cauchy Surface Null Hypersurface Null Energy Condition Minkowski Space
A uniqueness theorem for Minkowski space and de Sitter space associated with the occurrence of null lines (inextendible globally achronal null geodesics) is presented. This result is obtained as a consequence of the null splitting theorem, which is also discussed.
