Geometry of conformal vector fields
It is well known that the Euclidean space (Rn,〈,〉), the n-sphere Sn(c) of constant curvature c and Euclidean complex space form (Cn,J,〈,〉) are examples of spaces admitting conformal vector fields and therefore conformal vector fields are used in ...

Navigation problem and conformal vector fields [PDF]
The navigation technique is very effective to obtain or classify a Finsler metric from a given a Finsler metric (especially a Riemannian metric) under an action of a vector field on a differential manifold.

Conformal Vector Fields on Doubly Warped Product Manifolds and Applications [PDF]
This article aimed to study and explore conformal vector fields on doubly warped product manifolds as well as on doubly warped spacetime. Then we derive sufficient conditions for matter and Ricci collineations on doubly warped product manifolds.

Bi-conformal vector fields and their applications [PDF]
We introduce the concept of bi-conformal transformation, as a generalization of conformal ones, by allowing two orthogonal parts of a manifold with metric $\G$ to be scaled by different conformal factors.

Essential points of conformal vector fields
For a conformal vector field $\xi$ on a Riemannian manifold, we say that a point is essential if there is no local metric in the conformal class for which $\xi$ is Killing. We show that the only essential points are isolated zeros of $\xi$.

Closed conformal vector fields on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds [PDF]

Conformal vector fields in symmetric and conformal symmetric spaces
Consequences of the existence of conformal vector fields in (locally) symmetric and conformal symmetric spaces, have been obtained. An attempt has been made for a physical interpretation of the consequences in the framework of general relativity.

N = 2 dilaton Weyl multiplet in 4D supergravity
We construct the dilaton Weyl multiplet for N = 2 conformal supergravity in four dimensions. Beginning from an on-shell vector multiplet coupled to the standard Weyl multiplet, the equations of motion can be used to eliminate the supergravity auxiliary ...

Some conformal vector fields and conformal Ricci solitons on $N(k)$-contact metric manifolds [PDF]
The target of this paper is to study $N(k)$-contact metric manifolds with some types of conformal vector fields like $\phi$-holomorphic planar conformal vector fields and Ricci biconformal vector fields.

Conformal Vector Fields and Null Hypersurfaces
Abstract We give conditions for a conformal vector field to be tangent to a null hypersurface. We particularize to two important cases: a Killing vector field and a closed and conformal vector field. In the first case, we obtain a result ensuring that a null hypersurface is a Killing horizon.
