In this paper, we prove several Liouville-type theorems on the non-existence of Killing-Yano tensors, Killing tensors, and harmonic symmetric tensors on Hadamard manifolds and, in particular, on Riemannian symmetric spaces of non-compact…
Integrable Killing tensors are used to classify orthogonal coordinates in which the classical Hamilton-Jacobi equation can be solved by a separation of variables. We completely solve the Nijenhuis integrability conditions for Killing…

In this paper, we consider the symmetries of the Dirac operator derived from a connection with skew-symmetric torsion. We find that the generalized conformal Killing-Yano tensors give rise to symmetry operators of the massless Dirac…
We solve the Killing-Yano equation on manifolds with a $G$-structure for $G=SO(n), U(n), SU(n), Sp(n)\cdot Sp(1), Sp(n), G_2$ and $Spin(7)$. Solutions include nearly-K\"ahler, weak holonomy $G_2$, balanced SU(n) and holonomy $G$ manifolds.…
We show that topological strings on a class of non-compact Calabi-Yau threefolds is equivalent to two dimensional bosonic U(N) Yang-Mills on a torus. We explain this correspondence using the recent results on the equivalence of the…

Holographic dualities between certain gravitational theories in four and five spacetime dimensions and 2D conformal field theories (CFTs) have been proposed based on hidden conformal symmetry exhibited by the radial Klein-Gordon (KG)…
The aim of this paper is to investigate the separability of a spin-1/2 spinor field in a five-dimensional rotating, charged black hole constructed by Cvetic and Youm in string theory, in the case when three U(1) charges are set equal. This…
Asymptotically flat spacetimes with one Killing vector field are considered. The Killing equations are solved asymptotically using polyhomogeneous expansions (i.e. series in powers of 1/r an ln r), and solved order by order. The solution to…
