Abstract
We investigate, in some details, symplectic equivalence between several conformal classes of Lorentz metrics on the hyperboloid of one sheet and affine coadjoint orbits of the group of orientation preserving diffeomorphisms of with its natural projective structure. This will allow for generalizations, namely, to the case of arbitrary projective structures on null infinity.
