We study umbilically synchronized space-times $M$ that have vanishing electric part of the Weyl tensor and show that (i) If $dim(M) = 4$, then $M$ is conformally flat, (ii) If $dim(M) > 4$, $M$ is conformally flat if and only if the spatial…
We consider four-dimensional vacuum spacetimes which admit a nonvanishing spacelike Killing field. The quotient with respect to the Killing action is a three-dimensional quotient spacetime $(M,g)$. We establish several results regarding…
We show that conformal vector fields on compact locally conformally product manifolds are orthogonal to the flat distribution and Killing with respect to the Gauduchon metric.
We prove the existence of a large class of asymptotically flat initial data with non-vanishing mass and angular momentum for which the metric and the extrinsic curvature have asymptotic expansions at space-like infinity in terms of powers…
We show that every conformal vector field on a Damek-Ricci space is necessarily Killing, establishing a strong form of infinitesimal conformal rigidity. Although this rigidity phenomenon is classically known in the Einstein setting, our…

We realize an explicit conformal mapping between the state and operator pictures in a class of (2+1)-dimensional non-Lorentzian field theories with SU(1,2)$\times$U(1) conformal symmetry. The state picture arises from null reducing…
We determine conformal symmetry classes for the pp-wave spacetimes. This refines the isometry classification scheme given by Sippel and Goenner (1986 {\it Gen. Rel. Grav.} {\bf 18} 1229). It is shown that every conformal Killing vector for…
In this paper, we find all the Conformal Killing Vectors (CKVs) and their Lie Algebra for the recently reported [cqg1] spherically symmetric, shear-free separable metric spacetimes with non-vanishing energy or heat flux. We also solve the…
Spacetimes which are conformally related to reducible 1+3 spacetimes are considered. We classify these spacetimes according to the conformal algebra of the underlying reducible spacetime, giving in each case canonical expressions for the…
We study 4-dimensional simply connected Lie groups $G$ with left-invariant Riemannian metric $g$ admitting non-trivial conformal Killing 2-forms. We show that either the real line defined by such a form is invariant under the group action,…

The asymptotic structure of AdS spacetimes in the context of General Relativity coupled to the Maxwell field in three spacetime dimensions is analyzed. Although the fall-off of the fields is relaxed with respect to that of Brown and…
In our prior work toward Bartnik's static vacuum extension conjecture for near Euclidean boundary data, we establish a sufficient condition, called static regular, and confirm large classes of boundary hypersurfaces are static regular. In…
In the present paper we consider the Einstein-multiple-scalar field theory. When the target space of the scalar fields is a complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold with non-positive sectional curvature we prove that the static and…
We classify noncompact homogeneous spaces which are Einstein and asymptotically harmonic. This completes the classification of Riemannian harmonic spaces in the homogeneous case: Any simply connected homogeneous harmonic space is flat, or…
In this paper, it is proved that any conformal vector field is homothetic on a locally projectively flat $(\alpha,\beta)$-space of non-Randers type in dimension $n\ge 3$, and the local solutions of such a vector field are determined. While…
