Let $\mathbb{E}$ be a connected and orientable Riemannian 3-manifold with a non-singular Killing vector field whose associated one-parameter group of the isometries of $\mathbb{E}$ acts freely and properly on $\E$. Then, there exists a…

Some basic theorems on Killing vector fields are reviewed. In particular, the topic of a constant-curvature space is examined. A detailed proof is given for a theorem describing the most general form of the metric of a homogeneous isotropic…

In this article, we study mixed Killing vector fields, defined by the condition $L_V L_V g = f\, L_V g$, on the Cigar Ricci--Bourguignon soliton. While conformal vector fields are always mixed Killing, the converse fails in flat and open…

Many authors have studied Ricci solitons and their analogs within the framework of (almost) contact geometry. In this article, we thoroughly study the $(m,\rho)$-quasi-Einstein structure on a contact metric manifold. First, we prove that if…

We show that puncture data for quasicircular binary black hole orbits allow a special gauge choice that realizes some of the necessary conditions for the existence of an approximate helical Killing vector field. Introducing free parameters…

In this paper we have obtained evolution of some geometric quantities on a compact Riemannian manifold $M^n$ when the metric is a Yamabe soliton. Using these quantities we have obtained bound on the soliton constant. We have proved that the…

A Killing submersion is a Riemannian submersion from a 3-manifold to a surface, both connected and orientable, whose fibres are the integral curves of a Killing vector field, not necessarily unitary. The first part of this paper deals with…

We show that the Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton-Axion system with multiple vector fields (bosonic sector of the D=4, N=4 supergravity) restricted to spacetimes possessing a non-null Killing vector field admits a concise representation in terms of…

As part of a programme to classify quasi-Einstein metrics $(M,g,X)$ on closed manifolds and near-horizon geometries of extreme black holes, we study such spaces when the vector field $X$ is divergence-free but not identically zero. This…

Killing vector fields of constant length correspond to isometries of constant displacement. Those in turn have been used to study homogeneity of Riemannian and Finsler quotient manifolds. Almost all of that work has been done for group…
