Logarithmic conformal field theories are based on vertex algebras with non-semisimple representation categories. While examples of such theories have been known for more than 25 years, some crucial aspects of local logarithmic CFTs have…
We establish that equally-spaced smectic configurations enjoy an infinite-dimensional conformal symmetry and show that there is a natural map between them and null hypersurfaces in maximally-symmetric spacetimes. By choosing the appropriate…
In this work we study the local structure of analytic planar vector fields that are reversible with respect to the linear involution $R(u,v)=(u,-v)$. We show that every analytic reversible vector field with a nondegenerate equilibrium is…
This paper investigates axially symmetric space-times that admit a homothetic vector field based on Lyra's geometry. The cases when the displacement vector is a function of $t$ and when it is constant are studied. In the context of this…
In an earlier paper (Class. Quantum Grav. 19 (2002) p.259) the author wrote the homothetic equations for vacuum solutions in a first order formalism allowing for arbitrary alignment of the dyad. This paper generalises that method to…
In this article we consider area preserving diffeomorphisms of planar domains, and we are interested in their conformal points, i.e., points at which the derivative is a similarity. We present some conditions that guarantee existence of…
In this diploma thesis vector field is constructed on $R \times S^3$. The free lagrangian on the curved space is invariant under conformal transformations of the dynamical field $A_m(x)$. The gauge fixing term is not conformally invariant,…
We study, theoretically and experimentally, a 1-parameter family of transformations and their limiting vector field on the space of plane polygons. These transformations are discrete analogs of completely integrable transformation on closed…
We prove that every conformal vector field on the complex hyperbolic space $\mathbb{C}H^n$ is Killing for all $n\ge 2$. Although this rigidity is classically known, our proof is entirely different in nature: it is local, analytic, and fully…
We consider a moduli space of lattice polarized K3 surfaces with the additional information of a frame of the trascendental cohomology with respect to the lattice polarization. This moduli space is proved to be quasi-affine, and the…
We investigate proper conformal vector fields in non conformally flat Kantowski-Sachs and Bianchi type III space-times using direct integration technique. Using the above mentioned technique we show that very special classes of the above…
The paper aims to investigate curvature inheritance symmetry in M-projectively flat spacetimes. It is shown that the curvature inheritance symmetry in M-projectively flat spacetime is a conformal motion. We have proved that M- projective…
We show that complete conformally flat manifolds of dimension n>2 with nonnegative Ricci curvature enjoy nice rigidity properties: they are either flat, or locally isometric to a product of a sphere and a line, or are globally conformally…
Multiple scalar fields appear in vast modern particle physics and gravity models. When they couple to gravity non-minimally, conformal transformation is utilized to bring the theory into Einstein frame. However, the kinetic terms of scalar…
Let $U$ and $V$ be finite-dimensional vector spaces over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{K}$, and $\mathcal{S}$ be a linear subspace of the space $\mathcal{L}(U,V)$ of all linear maps from $U$ to $V$. A map $F : \mathcal{S} \rightarrow V$ is…

Quantum field theory has been shown recently renormalizable on flat Moyal space and better behaved than on ordinary space-time. Some models at least should be completely finite, even beyond perturbation theory. In this paper a first step is…
The purpose of this paper is to find conformal vector fields of some perfect fluid Kantowski-Sachs and Bianchi type III space-times in the f(R) theory of gravity using direct integration technique. In this study there exists only eight…
A generalisation of a known theorem concerning the computation of the conformal algebra in 1+(n-1) decomposable spaces is presented. It is shown that the general form of Conformal Vector Fields (CVF) is the sum of a gradient CVF and a…
We prove various results on the size and structure of subsets of vector spaces over finite fields which, in some sense, have too many mutually orthogonal pairs of vectors. In particular, we obtain sharp finite field variants of a theorem of…
