We prove that there exist solutions for a non-parametric capillary problem in a wide class of Riemannian manifolds endowed with a Killing vector field. In other terms, we prove the existence of Killing graphs with prescribed mean curvature…

We carry on a general study on non--static spherically symmetric fluids admitting a conformal Killing vector (CKV). Several families of exact analytical solutions are found for different choices of the CKV, in both, the dissipative and the…

For Kaehler manifolds we explicitly determine the solution to the conformal Killing form equation in middle degree. In particular, we complete the classification of conformal Killing forms on compact Kaehler manifolds. We give the first…

We investigate the structure of conformal $C$-spaces,a class of Riemmanian manifolds which naturally arises as aconformal generalisation of the Einstein condition. A basic question is when such a structure is closed, or equivalently locally…

We show that the warped de Sitter compactifications are possible under certain conditions in D-dimensional gravitational theory coupled to a dilaton, a form field strength, and a cosmological constant. We find that the solutions of field…

In this paper we study near vector spaces over a commutative $F$ from a model theoretic point of view. In this context we show regular near vector spaces are in fact vector spaces. We find that near vector spaces are not first order…

We study solutions to the eleven-dimensional supergravity action, including terms quartic and cubic in the Riemann curvature, that admit an eight-dimensional compact space. The internal background is found to be a conformally Kahler…

In vacuum space-times the exterior derivative of a Killing vector field is a two-form that satisfies Maxwell equations without electromagnetic sources. Using the algebraic structure of this two-form we have set up a new formalism for the…

In this note, we study the dynamics and associated zeta functions of conformally compact manifolds with variable negative sectional curvatures. We begin with a discussion of a larger class of manifolds known as convex co-compact manifolds…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a symplectic manifold admitting a metaplectic structure (a symplectic analogue of the Riemannian spin structure) and a torsion-free symplectic connection $\nabla.$ Symplectic Killing spinor fields for this structure are…
