Theory Of Gravity

A classification of static spherically symmetric space-times in [Formula: see text] theory of gravity according to their conformal vector fields (CVFs) is presented. For this analysis, a direct integration technique is used. This study reveals that for static spherically symmetric space-times in [Formula: see text] theory of gravity, CVFs are just Killing vector fields (KVFs) or homothetic vector fields (HVFs). For this classification, six cases have been discussed out of which there exists only one case for which CVFs become HVFs while in the rest of the cases CVFs become KVFs.

It is shown that the Petrov-Plebański classification of the trace-free Ricci tensors of some spherically symmetric metrics is invariant, contrary to an assertion by Takeno and Kitamura concerning these metrics.

Killing Horizons

Some event horizons in space–times that are invariant under an isometric action, considered first by Carter, are called isometry horizons, especially Killing horizons. In this paper, isometry horizons in spherically symmetric space–times are considered. It is shown that these isometry horizons are all Killing horizons.

Proper Curvature

A study of nonstatic spherically symmetric space–times according to their proper curvature collineations is given by using the rank of the 6×6 Riemann matrix and direct integration techniques. Studying proper curvature collineations in each case of the above space–times it is shown that when the above space–times admit proper curvature collineations, they turn out to be static spherically symmetric and form an infinite dimensional vector space. In the nonstatic cases curvature collineations are just Killing vector fields.
