Curvature Collineations in Empty Space-Times

open access: closedJournal of Mathematical Physics, 1970
It is shown that the only curvature collineations admitted by an empty space-time, not of Petrov type N, are conformal motions. The curvature collineations admitted by the plane-fronted gravitational waves are found.

PROPER CURVATURE COLLINEATIONS IN SPHERICALLY SYMMETRIC STATIC SPACE-TIMES

open access: closedIl Nuovo Cimento B, 2003
An approach is adopted to study proper curvature collineations in Spherically symmetric static space-times by using the rank of the 6x6 Rieman matrix. It is shown that when the above space-times admit proper curvature collineations, they form an infinite dimensional vector space.

A note on classification of dust static plane symmetric space-times via proper curvature collineations in f(R) gravity

open access: closedInternational Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2022
In this paper, we classify dust static plane symmetric (SPS) space-times via proper curvature collineations (CCs) in the [Formula: see text] gravity using the rank of [Formula: see text] Riemann matrix and direct integration technique. Classifying the above mentioned space-times, we find that there arise six cases corresponding to specific values of ...

Curvature and conformal collineations in presence of matter

open access: closedGeneral Relativity and Gravitation, 1988
Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of curvature and conformal collineations (when they are not conformal motions) are applied in order to obtain spherically symmetric metrics. This part bases on an earlier classification made by \textit{G. S. Hall} and \textit{C. B. G. McIntosh} [Int. J. Theor. Phys. 22, 469-476 (1983; Zbl 0523.53037)

Classification of spherically symmetric static space–times by their curvature collineations

open access: closedJournal of Mathematical Physics, 1997
A complete classification of all spherically symmetric static space–times according to their curvature collineations is presented and compared with Ricci collineations of corresponding space–times.

Curvature collineations of non-expanding and twist-free vacuum type-N metrics in general relativity

open access: closedJournal of Physics A: Mathematical and General, 1980
The curvature collineation equations have been solved for the two families of Petrov type-N plane-fronted gravitational wave solutions of Einstein's vacuum field equations in general relativity. Both of these solutions always have non-trivial curvature collineations, i.e.

Curvature Collineations: A Fundamental Symmetry Property of the Space-Times of General Relativity Defined by the Vanishing Lie Derivative of the Riemann Curvature Tensor

open access: closedJournal of Mathematical Physics, 1969
A Riemannian space Vn is said to admit a particular symmetry which we call a ``curvature collineation'' (CC) if there exists a vector ξi for which £ξRjkmi=0, where Rjkmi is the Riemann curvature tensor and £ξ denotes the Lie derivative. The investigation of this symmetry property of space-time is strongly motivated by the all-important role of the ...
