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.…

It is shown that given an analytic Lorentzian metric on a 4-manifold, $g$, which admits two Killing vector fields, then it exists a local deformation law $\eta = a g + b H$, where $H$ is a 2-dimensional projector, such that $\eta$ is flat…

In Class. Quantum Grav. 35 (2018) 155015 we have introduced the notion of "Multiple Killing Horizon" and analyzed some of its general properties. Multiple Killing Horizons are Killing horizons for two or more linearly independent Killing…

The conformal Killing equations for the most general (non-plane wave) conformally flat pure radiation field are solved to find the conformal Killing vectors. As expected fifteen independent conformal Killing vectors exist, but in general…

We prove some results for the solitons of the Ricci-Bourguignon flow, generalizing corresponding results for Ricci solitons. Taking motivation from Ricci almost solitons, we then introduce the notion of Ricci-Bourguignon $almost$ solitons…

We describe the local conformal geometry of a Lorentzian spin manifold $(M,g)$ admitting a twistor spinor $\phi$ with zero. Moreover, we describe the shape of the zero set of $\phi$. If $\phi$ has isolated zeros then the metric $g$ is…
