We show that given a compact, connected $m$-quasi Einstein manifold $(M,g,X)$ without boundary, the potential vector field $X$ is Killing if and only if $(M, g)$ has constant scalar curvature. This extends a result of…
Let (M, g) be a compact Einstein manifold with non-empty boundary. We prove that Killing fields at the boundary extend to Killing fields of any (M, g) provided the boundary is weakly convex and a simple condition on the fundamental group…
We prove (Theorem 1.1.) that a class of quasi-Einstein structures on closed manifolds must admit a Killing vector field. This extends the rigidity theorem obtained in \cite{DL23} for the extremal black hole horizons and completes the…
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…
We extend the following result of Cochran ``A closed $m$-quasi Einstein manifold ($M,g,X$) with $m \ne -2$ has constant scalar curvature if and only if $X$ is Killing" covering the missing accidental case $m=-2$ and generalize it showing…
The main objective of this paper is to investigate the $m$-quasi Einstein manifold when the potential function becomes convex. In this article, it is proved that an $m$-quasi Einstein manifold satisfying some integral conditions with…
In this article, we study almost cosymplectic manifolds admitting quasi-Einstein structures $(g, V, m, \lambda)$. First we prove that an almost cosymplectic $(\kappa,\mu)$-manifold is locally isomorphic to a Lie group if $(g, V, m,…
In this paper emphasis is placed on how the behavior of the solutions of a PDE is affected by the geometry of the generalized $m$-quasi-Einstein manifold, and vice versa. Considering a $n$-dimensional generalized $m$-quasi-Einstein manifold…
We call a metric $m$-quasi-Einstein if $Ric_X^m$ (a modification of the $m$-Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor in terms of a suitable vector field $X$) is a constant multiple of the metric tensor. It is a generalization of Einstein metrics which…
In this paper, we classify the compact locally homogeneous non-gradient $m$-quasi Einstein 3-manifolds. Along the way, we prove that given a compact quotient of a Lie group of any dimension that is $m$-quasi Einstein, the potential vector…
The study of symmetries in the realm of manifolds can be approached in two different ways. On one hand, Killing vector fields on a (pseudo-)Riemannian manifold correspond to the directions of local isometries within it. On the other hand,…
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…
We show that if a compact hypersurface $M \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n \geq3$, admits a non zero Killing vector field $X$ of constant length then $n$ is even and $M$ is diffeomorphic to the unit hypersphere of $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. Actually,…
We call a metric $m$-quasi-Einstein if $Ric_X^m$, which replaces a gradient of a smooth function $f$ by a vector field $X$ in $m$-Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor, is a constant multiple of the metric tensor. It is a generalization of Einstein…
The tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold (M,g) with non-degenerated g-natural metric G that admits a Killing vector field is investigated. Using Taylor's formula (TM,G) is decomposed into four classes that are investigated separately.…
A rigidity result for a class of compact generalized quasi-Einstein manifolds with constant scalar curvature is obtained. Moreover, under some geometric assumptions, the rigidity for the noncompact case is also proved. Considering non…
We consider almost Einstein solitons $(V,\lambda)$ in a Riemannian manifold when $V$ is a gradient, a solenoidal or a concircular vector field. We explicitly express the function $\lambda$ by means of the gradient vector field $V$ and…
We prove that the intrinsic geometry of compact cross-sections of any vacuum extremal horizon must admit a Killing vector field. If the cross-sections are two-dimensional spheres, this implies that the most general solution is the extremal…
Many extensions of General Relativity are based on considering metric and affine structures as independent properties of spacetime. This leads to the possibility of introducing torsion as an independent degree of freedom. In this article we…
We consider 1 spacelike Killing vector field reductions of 4-d vacuum general relativity. We restrict attention to cases in which the manifold of orbits of the Killing field is $R^{3}$. The reduced Einstein equations are equivalent to those…
