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’

Concircular vector fields for Kantowski Sachs and Bianchi type III spacetimes
This paper intends to obtain concircular vector fields of Kantowski Sachs and Bianch type III spacetimes. For this purpose, ten conformal Killing equations and their general solution in the form of conformal Killing vector fields are derived along with ...

Killing Vector Fields of Invariant Metrics on Five-Dimensional Solvable Lie Groups
In this paper we study the existence of Killing vector fields for right-invariant metrics on five-dimensional Lie groups. We begin by providing some explanation of the classification lists of the low-dimensional Lie algebras.

Killing vectors in asymptotically flat space-times: I. Asymptotically translational Killing vectors and the rigid positive energy theorem [PDF]
We study Killing vector fields in asymptotically flat space-times. We prove the following result, implicitly assumed in the uniqueness theory of stationary black holes.

Some New Results on Trans-Sasakian Manifolds
In this paper, we classify trans-Sasakian manifolds which are realized as real hypersurfaces in a complex space form. We also investigate trans-Sasakian manifolds whose Reeb vector fields are harmonic-Killing.

Analytic Extension of Riemannian Analytic Manifolds and Local Isometries
This article deals with a locally given Riemannian analytic manifold. One of the main tasks is to define its regular analytic extension in order to generalize the notion of completeness.

On Killing vector fields and Newman–Penrose constants [PDF]
Asymptotically flat space–times with one Killing vector field are studied. The Killing equations are solved asymptotically using polyhomogeneous expansions (i.e., series in powers of 1/r and ln r), and solved order by order. The solution to the leading terms of these expansions yields the asymptotic form of the Killing vector field.

A new method to compute quasi-local spin and other invariants on marginally trapped surfaces
We accurately compute the scalar 2-curvature, the Weyl scalars, associated quasi-local spin, mass and higher multipole moments on marginally trapped surfaces in numerical 3+1 simulations.

Sufficient Conditions for Periodicity of a Killing Vector Field [PDF]
Let X X be a complete Killing vector field on an n n -dimensional connected Riemannian manifold. Our main purpose is to show that if X X has as few as n n closed orbits which are located properly with respect to each other, then X X must have periodic flow ...
