I read many articles about space-times. Most authors consider these spaces as warped product manifolds I×M where I is an open connected interval of the real line and M is a Riemannian manifold. Minkowski space-time, anti-de Sitter, and the Einstein static universe are well-known examples of such space-times.

Many authors considered a general metric of these three examples and construct the so-called static space -times.

My question is: Is there a generalized metric on all space-times?

Note that my question is not about the most generalized metric but about the generalized metric of the existing ones.

I want to bank up the existing metrics in one generalized metric.

Thanks in advance
