We develop a new method in order to classify the Bianchi I spacetimes which admit conformal Killing vectors (CKV). The method is based on two propositions which relate the CKVs of 1+(n-1) decomposable Riemannian spaces with the CKVs of the…

The conformal algebra of a 1+3 decomposable spacetime can be computed from the conformal Killing vectors (CKV) of the 3-space. It is shown that the general form of such a 3-CKV is the sum of a gradient CKV and a Killing or homothetic…

In this paper, we investigate conformal Killing's vectors (CKVs) admitted by some plane symmetric spacetimes. Ten conformal Killing's equations and their general forms of CKVs are derived along with their conformal factor. The existence of…

The aim of this paper is to explore teleparallel conformal Killing vector fields (CKVFs) of locally rotationally symmetric (LRS) Bianchi type V spacetimes in the context of teleparallel gravity and compare the obtained results with those of…

Conformal Killing vectors (CKVs) preserve the spacetime metric up to a factor. Homothetic vectors and Killing vectors are special cases of CKVs. Classification of some classes of spacetimes on the basis of CKVs give interesting results…

All diagonal proper Bianchi I space-times are determined which admit certain important symmetries. It is shown that for Homotheties, Conformal motions and Kinematic Self-Similarities the resulting space-times are defined explicitly in terms…

Curvature collineations of Bianchi type IV space-times are investigated using the rank of the 6X6 Riemann matrix and direct integration technique. From the above study it follows that the Bianchi type IV space-times possesses only one case…

This paper intends to obtain concircular vector fields of Kantowski Sachs and Bianch type III spacetimes. For this purpose, ten conformal Killing equations and their general solution in the form of conformal Killing vector fields are…

A generalisation of a known theorem concerning the computation of the conformal algebra in 1+(n-1) decomposable spaces is presented. It is shown that the general form of Conformal Vector Fields (CVF) is the sum of a gradient CVF and a…

Space-times admitting a 3-dimensional Lie group of conformal motions $C_3$ acting on null orbits are studied. Coordinate expressions for the metric and the conformal Killing vectors (CKV) are then provided (irrespectively of the matter…

We study proper curvature collineations in the most general form of the Bianchi types VI_{0} and VII_{0} space-times using the rank of the 6X6 Riemann matrix and direct integration technique. It is shown that when the above space-times…

We investigate proper conformal vector fields in non conformally flat Kantowski-Sachs and Bianchi type III space-times using direct integration technique. Using the above mentioned technique we show that very special classes of the above…

In this paper Bianchi type I spacetimes are completely classified by their homothetic vectors in the context of Lyra geometry. The non-linear coupled Lyra homothetic equations are obtained and solved completely for different cases. In some…

Direct integration technique is used to study the proper conformal vector fields in non conformally flat Bianchi type-1 space-times. Using the above mentioned technique we have shown that a very special class of the above space-time admits…

In this paper, we find all the Conformal Killing Vectors (CKVs) and their Lie Algebra for the recently reported [cqg1] spherically symmetric, shear-free separable metric spacetimes with non-vanishing energy or heat flux. We also solve the…

We study the existence of gradient conformal Killing vectors (CKVs) in the class of locally rotationally symmetric (LRS) spacetimes which generalizes spherically symmetric spacetimes, and investigate some implications for the evolutionary…

Spacetimes which are conformally related to reducible 1+3 spacetimes are considered. We classify these spacetimes according to the conformal algebra of the underlying reducible spacetime, giving in each case canonical expressions for the…

In this work, we study the existence of gradient (proper) CKVs in locally rotationally symmetric spacetimes (LRS), those CKVs in the space spanned by the tangent to observers' congruence and the preferred spatial direction, allowing us to…

Perfect fluid space-times admitting a three-dimensional Lie group of conformal motions containing a two-dimensional Abelian Lie subgroup of isometries are studied. Demanding that the conformal Killing vector be proper (i.e., not homothetic…

The purpose of this paper is to find conformal vector fields of some perfect fluid Kantowski-Sachs and Bianchi type III space-times in the f(R) theory of gravity using direct integration technique. In this study there exists only eight…
