This paper discusses the pseudoconvexity properties in Lorentzian and Riemannian manifolds and their relationship in static spacetimes. An example is provided to illustrate a causally continuous and maximal null pseudoconvex spacetime that is not causally simple, along with its Riemannian factor that exhibits similar characteristics.
We consider pseudoconvexity properties in Lorentzian and Riemannian manifolds and their relationship in static spacetimes. We provide an example of a causally continuous and maximal null pseudoconvex spacetime that fails to be causally simple. Its Riemannian factor provides an analogous example of a manifold that is minimally pseudoconvex, but fails to be convex.
