Let $(M,F)$ be a compact connected homogeneous non-Riemannian Finsler manifold with $\dim M>1$. We prove that any conformal vector field on $(M,F)$ is a Killing vector field. Further more, we prove that $\rho F$ is a homogeneous Finsler…

We show that every conformal vector field on a Damek-Ricci space is necessarily Killing, establishing a strong form of infinitesimal conformal rigidity. Although this rigidity phenomenon is classically known in the Einstein setting, our…

This paper examines the geometry of left-invariant vector fields on five-dimensional, simply connected, nilpotent Lie groups equipped with left-invariant Riemannian metrics. Using the canonical identification between the Lie algebra and the…

We define and examine the notion of a Killing section of a Riemannian Lie algebroid as a natural generalisation of a Killing vector field. We show that the various expression for a vector field to be Killing naturally generalise to the…

We define and make an initial study of (even) Riemannian supermanifolds equipped with a homological vector field that is also a Killing vector field. We refer to such supermanifolds as Riemannian Q-manifolds. We show that such Q-manifolds…

We show that any conformal vector field on a compact lcK manifold is Killing with respect to the Gauduchon metric. Furthermore, we prove that any conformal vector field on a compact lcK manifold whose K\"ahler cover is neither flat, nor…

A 2-form on a quaternionic-Kahler manifold (M, g) is called compatible (with the quaternionic structure) if it is a section of the direct sum bundle S^2(H) \oplus S^2(E). We construct a connection D on S^2(H) \oplus S^2(E)\oplus TM, which…

The Killing tensor equation is a first order differential equation on symmetric covariant tensors that generalises to higher rank the usual Killing vector equation on Riemannian manifolds. We view this more generally as an equation on any…

Symmetry algebras of Killing vector fields and conformal Killing vectors fields can be extended to Killing-Yano and conformal Killing-Yano superalgebras in constant curvature manifolds. By defining $\mathbb{Z}$-gradations and filtrations of…

We study the rigid limit of 5d conformal supergravity with minimal supersymmetry on Riemannian manifolds. The necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a solution is the existence of a conformal Killing vector. Whenever a…

We provide conditions for a Riemannian manifold with a nontrivial closed affine conformal Killing vector field to be isometric to a Euclidean sphere or to the Euclidean space. Also, we formulate some triviality results for almost Ricci…

A smooth foliation is Riemannian when its leaves are locally equidistant. The closures of the leaves of a Riemannian foliation on a simply connected manifold, or more generally of a Killing foliation, are described by flows of transverse…

A Killing submersion is a Riemannian submersion from an orientable 3-manifold to an orientable surface whose fibers are the integral curves of a unit Killing vector field in the 3-manifold. We classify all Killing submersions over…
