New approach classifies conformal Killing vector fields for FLRW space-time.

Many extensions of General Relativity are based on considering metric and affine structures as independent properties of spacetime. This leads to the possibility of introducing torsion as an independent degree of freedom. In this article we examine the effects of torsion on the affine Killing vectors of two-dimensional…

Affine vector fields on pseudo-Kähler manifolds are symplectic.

Conditions for Riemannian manifolds to be Euclidean spheres or spaces.

An affine manifold is said to be geodesically complete if all affine geodesics extend for all time. It is said to be affine Killing complete if the integral curves for any affine Killing vector field extend for all time. We use the solution space of the quasi-Einstein equation to examine these concepts in the setting o…

The paper proves that certain modified conformal vector fields are trivial on compact and non-compact manifolds.

We prove that a bounded affine vector field on a complete Finsler manifold is a Killing vector field. This generalizes the analogous result of Hano for Riemannian manifolds. Even though our result is more general, the proof is significantly simpler.

The homogeneous affine surfaces have been classified by Opozda. They may be grouped into 3 families, which are not disjoint. The connections which arise as the Levi-Civita connection of a surface with a metric of constant Gauss curvature form one family; there are, however, two other families. For a surface in one of t…

Introduces a variational framework for indefinite Lagrangians with specific symmetries.

We consider the three-dimensional Heisenberg group, equipped with any left-invariant metric, either Lorentzian or Riemannian. We completely classify their affine vector fields and investigate their relationship with Killing vector fields and their casual character. We also classify their Ricci, curvature and matter col…

On a Hermitian manifold we construct a symmetric $(1,1)$- tensor $H$ using the torsion and the curvature of the Chern connection. On a compact balanced Hermitian manifold we find necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of the tensor $H$ for a harmonic $1$-form to be analytic and for an analytic $1$-form to be harm…

We examine moduli spaces of locally homogeneous surfaces of Type~$\mathcal{B}$ with torsion where the symmetric Ricci tensor is non-degenerate. We also determine the space of affine Killing vector fields in this context.

We prove a monodromy theorem for local vector fields belonging to a sheaf satisfying the unique continuation property. In particular, in the case of admissible regular sheaves of local fields defined on a simply connected manifold, we obtain a global extension result for every local field of the sheaf. This generalizes…

Continuing the previous work, we propose a further extension of the structure equation for a truncated CMC hierarchy by the non-commuting, truncated Virasoro algebra of non-local symmetries. Via a canonical dressing transformation, we first define a wave function for the CMC hierarchy. This leads to a pair of additiona…

Study on completeness of foliations and null Killing fields in Lorentzian manifolds.

We examine the space of solutions to the affine quasi--Einstein equation in the context of homogeneous surfaces. As these spaces can be used to create gradient Yamabe solitions, conformally Einstein metrics, and warped product Einstein manifolds using the modified Riemannian extension, we provide very explicit descript…

In this paper, we define a semi-symmetric metric Killing vector field, then study semi-symmetric metric Killing vector fields on warped and multiply warped products with a semi-symmetric metric connection. We also study Killing and 2-Killing vector fields on multiply warped products.

We consider Killing vector fields on standard static space-times and obtain equations for a vector field on a standard static space-time to be Killing. We also provide a characterization of Killing vector fields on standard static space-times with compact Riemannian parts.

We consider several transformation groups of a locally conformally Kähler manifold and discuss their inter-relations. Among other results, we prove that all conformal vector fields on a compact Vaisman manifold which is neither locally conformally hyperkähler nor a diagonal Hopf manifold are Killing, holomorphic and th…

In this paper, we compute the index form of the multiply twisted products. We study the Killing vector fields on the multiply twisted product manifolds and determine the Killing vector fields in some cases. We compute the curvature of the multiply twisted products with a semi-symmetric metric connection and show that t…

The paper examines conditions for a vector field to be Killing in almost Yamabe solitons.

We prove that holomorphic normal projective connections on compact complex surfaces are flat. We show that a holomorphic torsion-free affine connection $\nabla$ on a compact complex surface is locally modelled on a translations-invariant affine connection on $\C^2$, except if $\nabla$ is a generic connection on a princ…

Study characterizes 2-Killing vector fields on complex spacetimes.

We show how geodesics, Jacobi vector fields and flag curvature of a Finsler metric behave under Zermelo deformation with respect to a Killing vector field. We also show that Zermelo deformation with respect to a Killing vector field of a locally symmetric Finsler metric is also locally symmetric.

Study proves conformal vector fields on certain Finsler manifolds are Killing fields.

A supermanifold M is canonically associated to any pseudo Riemannian spin manifold (M_0,g_0). Extending the metric g_0 to a field g of bilinear forms g(p) on T_p M, p\in M_0, the pseudo Riemannian supergeometry of (M,g) is formulated as G-structure on M, where G is a supergroup with even part G_0\cong Spin(k,l); (k,l) …
