Abstract
We study three-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifolds having distinct constant principal Ricci curvatures. These spaces are described via a system of differential equations, and a simple characterization is proved to hold for the locally homogeneous ones. We then generalize the technique used in [O. Kowalski, F. Prüfer, On Riemannian 3-manifolds with distinct constant Ricci eigenvalues, Math. Ann. 300 (1994) 17–28] for Riemannian manifolds and construct explicitly homogeneous and non-homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian metrics in R3R3, having the prescribed principal Ricci curvatures.
