Conformal mappings preserving the Einstein tensor of Weyl manifolds
Authors
Abstract:
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 related by a conformal mapping preserving the Einstein tensor with a gradient covector field. Then, we prove that a Weyl manifold $W_n$ and a flat Weyl manifold $tilde{W}_n$, which are in a conformal correspondence preserving the Einstein tensor are Einstein-Weyl manifolds. Moreover, we show that an isotropic Weyl manifold is an Einstein-Weyl manifold with zero scalar curvature and we obtain that a Weyl manifold $W_n$ and an isotropic Weyl manifold related by the conformal mapping preserving the Einstein tensor are Einstein-Weyl manifolds.

We look for complete four dimensional Einstein-Weyl spaces equipped with a Bianchi metric. Using the explicit 4-parameters expression of the distance obtained in a previous work for non-conformally-Einstein Einstein-Weyl structures, we show that four 1-parameter families of compact metrics exist : they are all of Bianchi IX type and conformally Kähler ; moreover, in agreement with general resul...
full textEinstein - Weyl structures on complex manifolds and conformal version of Monge - Ampère equation
A Hermitian Einstein-Weyl manifold is a complex manifold admitting a Ricci-flat Kähler covering M̃ , with the deck transform acting on M̃ by homotheties. If compact, it admits a canonical Vaisman metric, due to Gauduchon. We show that a Hermitian Einstein-Weyl structure on a compact complex manifold is determined by its volume form. This result is a conformal analogue of Calabi’s theorem stating ...

It is proved that any compact almost Kähler, Einstein 4-manifold whose fundamental form is a root of the Weyl tensor is necessarily Kähler.

In light of the AdS/CFT correspondence, it is natural to try to define a conformal field theory in a large N , strong coupling limit via a supergravity compactification on the product of an Einstein manifold and anti-de Sitter space. We consider the fivedimensional manifolds T pq which are coset spaces (SU(2)×SU(2))/U(1). The central charge and a part of the chiral spectrum are calculated, resp...
full textOn the Einstein-Weyl and conformal self-duality equations
The equations governing anti-self-dual and Einstein-Weyl conformal geometries can be regarded as ‘master dispersionless systems’ in four and three dimensions respectively. Their integrability by twistor methods has been established by Penrose and Hitchin. In this note we present, in specially adapted coordinate systems, explicit forms of the corresponding equations and their Lax pairs. In parti...
