We show that the group of smooth isometries of a complemented sub-Riemannian manifold form a Lie group and establish dimension estimates based on the torsion of the canonical connection. We explore the interaction of curvature and the…

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 prove the existence and uniqueness of graphs with prescribed mean curvature function in a large class of Riemannian manifolds which comprises spaces endowed with a conformal Killing vector field.

We study Wick-rotations of left-invariant metrics on Lie groups, using results from real GIT (\cite{1}, \cite{2}, \cite{3}). An invariant for Wick-rotation of Lie groups is given, and we describe when a pseudo-Riemannian Lie group can be…

The Oscillator Groups,$\G_\lambda,$ are the only solvable, non commutative, simply connected Lie groups to admit a Lorentzian bi-invariant metric. For these groups, we give sufficient conditions for a left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric…

We study the geometry of compact Lorentzian manifolds that admit a somewhere timelike Killing vector field, and whose isometry group has infinitely many connected components. Up to a finite cover, such manifolds are products (or amalgamated…

We study left-invariant foliations ${\mathcal F}$ on semi-Riemannian Lie groups $G$ generated by a subgroup $K$. We are interested in such foliations which are conformal and with minimal leaves of codimension two. We classify such…

A vector field $V$ on any (semi-)Riemannian manifold is said to be mixed Killing if for some nonzero smooth function $f$, it satisfies $L_VL_Vg=fL_Vg$, where $L_V$ is the Lie derivative along $V$. This class of vector fields, as a…

In this paper, first we consider that the conformal vector field $\mathbf{X}$ is identical with the Reeb vector field $\varsigma$ and next, assume that $\mathbf{X}$ is pointwise collinear with %the Reeb vector field $\varsigma$, in both…

Fayos and Sopuerta have recently set up a formalism for studying vacuum spacetimes with an isometry, a formalism that is centred around the bivector corresponding to the Killing vector and that adapts the tetrad to the bivector. Steele has…
