On a Simple Characterization of Conformally Flat 4-Dimensional Spaces of Neutral Signature

Öz

In this work, the full characterization of 4-dimensional conformally flat spaces of neutral signature is given by using methods based on holonomy structure. Possible holonomy types are obtained for the spaces in question and several remarks are made. Various examples are presented related to this investigation.
