Abstract

We classify flat strict nearly Kähler manifolds with (necessarily) indefinite metric. Any such manifold is locally the product of a flat pseudo-Kähler factor of maximal dimension and a strict flat nearly Kähler manifold of split signature (2m,2m) with m≥ 3. Moreover, the geometry of the second factor is encoded in a complex three-form ζ∈ Λ³ (ℂ^m)^*. The first nontrivial example occurs in dimension 4m=12.
