Abstract We propose a geometric restriction on Euclidean/Minkowski distance in the embedding space being proportional to distance in the embedded space, to generate spacetimes with vanishing gravitational mass (R(ik)u(i)u(k) = 0, u(i)u(i) = 1). They are in fact dual-flat. This is also the condition that characterizes global monopoles and textures.
