Homogeneous wavefront of a plane gravitational wave

ID: homogeneous-wavefront-of-a-plane-gravitational-wave

For a Brinkmann plane wave whose transverse profile is quadratic, Killing fields obtained from solutions of transverse oscillator equations act transitively on every constant-retarded-time wavefront. Each wavefront is therefore a homogeneous null hypersurface.
