Abstract: | We examine quasi-regular singularities that take the form of invariant two-dimensional null planes in Minkowski space-time, thus extending earlier studies of conical singularities based on timelike and spacelike planes. The result is described in terms of a deficit parameter. We also examine the form of the Riemann curvature tensor at the singularity. |
