In this paper, we explore teleparallel conformal vector fields in non-static plane symmetric space-times in the teleparallel theory of gravitation using the direct integration technique and diagonal tetrads. This study will also cover the static plane symmetric space-times as well. In the teleparallel theory curvature of the non-static plane symmetric space-times is zero and the presence of torsion allows more symmetries. In this study after solving the integrabilty conditions it turns out that the dimension of teleparallel conformal vector fields are 5, 6, 7 or 8.

In this paper, we present a complete classification of static plane symmetric spacetimes via their homothetic symmetries of the energy–momentum tensor, known as homothetic matter collineations (HMCs). The HMC equations for these spacetimes are derived and then solved by considering the degeneracy and non-degeneracy of the energy–momentum tensor. In the former case, we have obtained 6, 11 and infinite number of HMCs, while in the latter case, the solution of HMC equations yields 6-, 7-, 8-, 10- and 11-dimensional algebra of HMCs. The obtained HMCs generate some differential constraints involving the components of the energy–momentum tensor. Some examples of static plane symmetric spacetime metrics satisfying these constraints are provided and the physical interpretations of these metrics are discussed.

The aim of this study is twofold. First, we use a new approach to study the homothetic vector fields (HVFs) of static plane symmetric space–times by an algorithm which we have developed using the Maple platform. The interesting feature of this algorithm is that it provides the most general form of metrics admitting HVFs as compared to those obtained in an earlier study where direct integration techniques were used. Second, the obtained metrics are used in Einstein’s field equations to compute the energy–momentum tensor and it is shown how the parameters involved in the obtained space–time metrics are associated with certain important energy conditions.

The aim of this paper is to give the geometrical/physical interpretation of the conserved quantities corresponding to each Noether symmetry of the geodetic Lagrangian of plane symmetric space-times. For this purpose, we present a complete list of plane symmetric nonstatic space-times along with the generators of all Noether symmetries of the geodetic Lagrangian. Additionally, the structure constants of the associated Lie algebras, the Riemann curvature tensors, and the energy-momentum tensors are obtained for each case. It is worth mentioning that the list contains all classes of solutions that have been obtained earlier during the classification of plane symmetric space-times by isometries and homotheties.

In this paper, general static plane symmetric spacetime is classified with respect to Noether operators. For this purpose, Noether theorem is used which yields a set of linear partial differential equations (PDEs) with unknown radial functions [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. Further, these PDEs are solved by taking different possibilities of radial functions. In the first case, all radial functions are considered same, while two functions are taken proportional to each other in second case, which further discussed by taking four different relationships between [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. For all cases, different forms of unknown functions of radial factor [Formula: see text] are reported for nontrivial Noether operators with non-zero gauge term. At the end, a list of conserved quantities for each Noether operator Tables 1–4 is presented.
