We present a new method for constructing conformal Yano-Killing tensors in five-di\-men\-sio\-nal Anti-de Sitter space-time. The found tensors are represented in two different coordinate systems. We also discuss, in terms of CYK tensors,…

This paper explores the Petrov type D, stationary axisymmetric vacuum (SAV) spacetimes that were found by Carter to have separable Hamilton-Jacobi equations, and thus admit a second-order Killing tensor. The derivation of the spacetimes…
In this paper, we investigate spacetime characterized by a hidden symmetry defined by a given Killing tensor. To exhibit this hidden symmetry, the inverse metric must commute with the Killing tensor under the Schouten-Nijenhuis bracket,…
We introduce in this paper normal twistor equations for differential forms and study their solutions, the so-called normal conformal Killing forms. The twistor equations arise naturally from the canonical normal Cartan connection of…
We show that some modern geometric methods of Hamiltonian dynamics can be directly applied to the nonholonomic Heisenberg type systems. As an example we present characteristic Killing tensors, compatible Poisson brackets, Lax matrices and…
We show that the Killing tensor of the Kerr spacetime has an analogue in the $\sqrt{\rm Kerr}$ gauge theory solution related to it by the classical double copy. This hidden symmetry of $\sqrt{\rm Kerr}$ leads to an additional constant of…
In this paper, a two-grid method is proposed to linearize and symmetrize the steady-state Poisson-Nernst-Planck equations. The computational system is decoupled to linearize and symmetrize equations by using this method, which can improve…
