Complexified compactified Minkowski space

ID: complexified-compactified-minkowski-space

The four-complex-dimensional Grassmannian of two-planes in twistor space. Its Plücker embedding is the Klein quadric. An affine chart consists of graphs . A Lorentzian reality structure on twistor space or an Euclidean reality structure on twistor space selects different four-real-dimensional compact spacetimes inside this same complex manifold.
