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.

Closed conformal vector fields on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds [PDF]
We give here a geometric proof of the existence of certain local coordinates on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold admitting a closed conformal vector field.

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.

CONFORMAL VECTOR FIELDS AND TOTALLY UMBILIC HYPERSURFACES [PDF]
Let \((M^n,g)\), \(n\geq 2\), be a connected semi-Riemannian hypersurface of a semi-Riemannian space form \((\overline{M}_k^{n+1}(\overline{c}),\overline{g})\) of signature \(k\). Assume that the ambient manifold carries a conformal vector field \(V\) such that the tangential part \((V|M^n)^T\) becomes a conformal vector field on the hypersurface. Then

Conformal vector fields on statistical manifolds
This paper introduces the notion of conformal vector field on a statistical manifold. A statistical manifold is a triple \((M,g,T)\), where \(g\) is a Riemannian metric tensor on the smooth manifold \(M\), and \(T\) is a covariant tensor of order 3 which is fully symmetric. An equivalent definition can be given replacing \(T\) with an affine connection

Local dynamics of conformal vector fields [PDF]
The aim of the paper is to understand the local forms of conformal vector fields in the neighborhood of a singularity. We begin a general study in this direction, for any pseudo-Riemannian type, and give a complete answer in the Riemannian case. This is done using geometric methods, and studying local dynamics of sequences of conformal transformations.

Pseudo-Riemannian Lie groups admitting left-invariant conformal vector fields
Let $G$ be a Lorentzian Lie group or a pseudo-Riemannian Lie group of type $(n-2,2)$. If $G$ admits a non-Killing left-invariant conformal vector field, then $G$ is solvable.

The character integral representation of one loop partition functions is useful to establish the relation between partition functions of conformal fields on Weyl equivalent spaces.

Ricci Bi-Conformal Vector Fields on Siklos Spacetimes [PDF]
Ricci bi-conformal vector fields have find their place in geometry as well as in physical applications. In this paper, we consider the Siklos spacetimes and we determine all the Ricci bi-conformal vector fields on these spaces.
