چکیده
In a study of Riemannian manifolds admitting conformal transformation, the Riemannian and Ricci curvatures play an important role for characterizations and classify such a manifold. In this note, we summarize known results about Riemannian manifold admitting conformal transformations and related topics.

Conformal mappings preserving the Einstein tensor of Weyl manifolds
In this paper, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a conformal mapping between two Weyl manifolds to preserve Einstein tensor. Then we prove that some basic curvature tensors of $W_n$ are preserved by such a conformal mapping if and only if the covector field of the mapping is locally a gradient. Also, we obtained the relation between the scalar curvatures of the Weyl manifolds r...

The space of diffeomorphisms of the circle modulo boundary values of conformal maps of the disk. The Sobolev 3/2 norm on the tangent space space at id of the space of diffeomorphisms of the circle modulo boundary values of conformal maps of the disk induces the only Kähler left invariant metric defined up to a constant on the space of diffeomorphisms of the circle modulo boundary values of conf...
متن کاملComputation of Curvatures Using Conformal Parameterization
Curvatures on the surface are important geometric invariants and are widely used in different area of research. Examples include feature recognition, segmentation, or shape analysis. Therefore, it is of interest to develop an effective algorithm to approximate the curvatures accurately. The classical methods to compute these quantities involve the estimation of the normal and some involve the c...
متن کاملOn Anosov Diffeomorphisms with Asymptotically Conformal Periodic Data
We consider transitive Anosov diffeomorphisms for which every periodic orbit has only one positive and one negative Lyapunov exponent. We establish various properties of such systems including strong pinching, C smoothness of the Anosov splitting, and C smoothness of measurable invariant conformal structures and distributions. We apply these results to volume preserving diffeomorphisms with dim...
متن کاملLocally conformal flat Riemannian manifolds with constant principal Ricci curvatures and locally conformal flat C-spaces
It is proved that every locally conformal flat Riemannian manifold all of whose Jacobi operators have constant eigenvalues along every geodesic is with constant principal Ricci curvatures. A local classification (up to an isometry) of locally conformal flat Riemannian manifold with constant Ricci eigenvalues is given in dimensions 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. It is shown that any n-dimensional (4 ≤ n ≤ 8)...
