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.
متن کاملSymmetric Spaces with Conformal Symmetry
We consider an involutive automorphism of the conformal algebra and the resulting symmetric space. We display a new action of the conformal group which gives rise to this space. The space has an intrinsic symplectic structure, a group-invariant metric and connection, and serves as the model space for a new conformal gauge theory. ∗Electronic-mail: [email protected]
متن کاملConformal holonomy, symmetric spaces, and skew symmetric torsion
We consider the question: can the isotropy representation of an irreducible pseudoRiemannian symmetric space be realized as a conformal holonomy group? Using recent results of Čap, Gover and Hammerl, we study the representations of SO(2, 1), PSU(2, 1) and PSp(2, 1) as isotropy groups of irreducible symmetric spaces of signature (3, 2), (4, 4) and (6, 8), respectively, describing the geometry in...
متن کاملHomotopes and Conformal Deformations of Symmetric spaces
Homotopy is an important feature of associative and Jordan algebraic structures: such structures always come in families whose members need not be isomorphic among other, but still share many important properties. One may regard homotopy as a special kind of deformation of a given algebraic structure. In this work, we investigate the global counterpart of this phenomenon on the geometric level ...
متن کاملConformal vector fields and conformal transformations on a Riemannian manifold
In this paper first it is proved that if ξ is a nontrivial closed conformal vector field on an n-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold (M, g) with constant scalar curvature S satisfying S ≤ λ1(n − 1), λ1 being first nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplacian operator ∆ on M and Ricci curvature in direction of a certain vector field is non-negative, then M is isometric to the n-sphere S(c), where S =...
