The goal of this paper is to clarify connections between Killing fields of constant length on a Rimannian geodesic orbit manifold $(M,g)$ and the structure of its full isometry group. The Lie algebra of the full isometry group of $(M,g)$ is…

In a space-time $M$ with a Killing vector field $\xi^a$ which is either everywhere timelike or everywhere spacelike, the collection of all trajectories of $\xi^a$ gives a 3-dimension space $S$. Besides the symmetry-reduced action from that…

First and foremost, we show that a 4-dimensional conformally flat generalized Ricci recurrent spacetime $(GR)_4$ is an Einstein manifold. We examine such a spacetime as a solution of $f(R, G)$-gravity theory and it is shown that the…

We study an even dimensional manifold with a pseudo-Riemannian metric with arbitrary signature and arbitrary dimensions. We consider the Ricci flat equations and present a procedure to construct solutions to some higher (even) dimensional…

In Phys. Rev. D $\textbf{107}$, 104008 (2023) we reported a novel exact closed-form solution which describes asymptotically flat spacetimes in pure $R^2$ gravity. The solution is Ricci scalar flat, viz. $R\equiv0$ everywhere. Whereas any…

A nonstatic and circularly symmetric exact solution of the Einstein equations (with a cosmological constant $\Lambda$ and null fluid) in $2+1$ dimensions is given. This is a nonstatic generalization of the uncharged spinless BTZ metric. For…
