In a recent paper, a new conformally flat metric was introduced, describing an expanding scalar field in a spherically symmetric geometry. The spacetime can be interpreted as a Schwarzschild-like model with an apparent horizon surrounding…

Our main aim in this paper is to investigate the rigidity of complete noncompact gradient steady Ricci solitons with harmonic Weyl tensor. More precisely, we prove that an $n$-dimensional ($n\geq 5$) complete noncompact gradient steady…

Four types of discrete transforms of Weyl orbit functions on the finite point sets are developed. The point sets are formed by intersections of the dual-root lattices with the fundamental domains of the affine Weyl groups. The finite sets…

Let $F$ be a homogeneous $(\alpha_1,\alpha_2)$ metric on the reductive homogeneous manifold $G/H$. Firstly, we characterize the natural reductiveness of $F$ as a local $f$-product between naturally reductive Riemannian metrics. Secondly, we…

We compute all sections of the finite Weyl group, that satisfy the braid relations, in the case that G is an almost-simple connected reductive group defined over an algebraically closed field. We then demonstrate that this set of sections…

We study Weyl symmetry for non-relativistic conformal filed theories on curved spatial spaces, and calculate it's quantum anomaly. We show that there is no geometric anomaly, and the non-relativistic Weyl anomaly can appear only due to…

We show that there are no new consistent cosmological perfect fluid solutions when in an open neighbourhood ${\cal U}$ of an event the fluid kinematical variables and the electric and magnetic Weyl curvature are all assumed rotationally…

We show that various actions of topological conformal theories that were suggested recentely are particular cases of a general action. We prove the invariance of these models under transformations generated by nilpotent fermionic generators…

We introduce a class of "weakly asymptotically hyperbolic" geometries whose sectional curvatures tend to $-1$ and are $C^0$, but are not necessarily $C^1$, conformally compact. We subsequently investigate the rate at which curvature…
