Killing and 2-Killing Vector Fields on Doubly Warped Products
We provide a condition for a 2-Killing vector field on a compact Riemannian manifold to be Killing and apply the result to doubly warped product manifolds.

Harmonic-Killing vector fields
The authors introduce the notion of 1-harmonic-Killing (1-h-K) vector fields, i.e., vector fields whose corresponding 1-parameter group of local transformations consists of maps which have vanishing linear part of their tension field. It is shown that a vector field is a Jacobi field along the identity map if and only if it is a 1-h-K vector field ...

On Killing Vector Fields on Riemannian Manifolds [PDF]
We study the influence of a unit Killing vector field on geometry of Riemannian manifolds. For given a unit Killing vector field w on a connected Riemannian manifold (M,g) we show that for each non-constant smooth function f∈C∞(M) there exists a non-zero vector field wf associated with f.

Primordial Magnetogenesis from Killing Vector Fields
Papapetrou showed that the covariant derivative of a Killing vector field satisfies Maxwell’s equations in vacuum. Papapetrou’s result is extended, in this article, and it is shown that the covariant derivative of a Killing vector field satisfies Maxwell’

Zermelo deformation of finsler metrics by killing vector fields [PDF]
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.

A Note on Killing Calculus on Riemannian Manifolds
In this article, it has been observed that a unit Killing vector field ξ on an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold (M,g), influences its algebra of smooth functions C∞(M).

We obtain some generalized Minkowski type integral formulas for compact Riemannian (resp., spacelike) hypersurfaces in Riemannian (resp., Lorentzian) manifolds in the presence of an arbitrary vector field that we assume to be timelike in the case where ...
