∇XV = λX for every vector field X. (1.2) Here ∇ denotes the Levi-Civita connection of g. We call vector fields satisfying (1.2) closed conformal vector fields. They appear in the work of Fialkow [3] about conformal geodesics, in the works of Yano [7–11] about concircular geometry in Riemannian manifolds, and in the works of Tashiro [6], Kerbrat [4], Kühnel and Rademacher [5], and many other aut...

Transports preserving the angle between two contravariant vector fields but changing their lengths proportional to their own lengths are introduced as " conformal " transports and investigated over (Ln, g)-spaces. They are more general than the Fermi-Walker transports. In an analogous way as in the case of Fermi-Walker transports a conformal covariant differential operator and its conformal der...

On a Riemannian almost product manifold, the notion of a componentwise conformal vector field is introduced and several examples are exhibited. We show that this class of vector fields is a conformal invariant. For a compact manifold, a Bochner type integral formula for the Ricci tensor on such vector fields is obtained. Then, integral inequalities which link a curvature condition with the exis...

In this paper, we show that some five-dimensional rotating black hole solutions of both gauged and ungauged supergravity, with independent rotation parameters and three charges admit separable solutions to the massless Hamilton-Jacobi and Klein-Gordon equations. This allows us to write down a conformal Killing tensor for the spacetime. Conformal Killing tensors obey an equation involving a co-v...

We study scale invariant but not necessarily conformal invariant deformations of non-relativistic conformal field theories from the dual gravity viewpoint. We present the corresponding metric that solves the Einstein equation coupled with a massive vector field. We find that, within the class of metric we study, when we assume the Galilean invariance, the scale invariant deformation always pres...

Conformal blocks form a system of vector bundles over the moduli space of complex curves with marked points. We discuss various aspects of these bundles. In particular, we present conjectures about the dimensions of sub-bundles. They imply a Verlinde formula for non-simply connected groups like PGL(n, C). We then explain how conformal blocks enter in the construction of conformal field theories...

We prove a Pohozaev type identity for non-linear eigenvalue equations of the Dirac operator on Riemannian spin manifolds with boundary. As an application, we obtain that the mean curvature H of a conformal immersion S → R satisfies ∫ ∂XH = 0 where X is a conformal vector field on S and where the integration is carried out with respect to the Euclidean volume measure of the image. This identity ...
