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.

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.

In this paper, we investigate homothetic Ricci collineations (HRCs) for non-static plane symmetric spacetimes. The source of the energy–momentum tensor is assumed to be a perfect fluid. Both degenerate as well as non-degenerate cases are considered and the HRC equations are solved in different cases. It is concluded that these spacetimes may possess 6, 7, 8, 10 or 11 HRCs in non-degenerate case, while they admit seven or infinite number of HRCs for degenerate Ricci tensor.

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.

In the [Formula: see text] theory of gravity, we classify static plane symmetric perfect fluid space-times via proper conformal vector fields (CVFs) using algebraic and direct integration approaches. During this classification, we found eight cases. Studying each case in detail, we found that the dimensions of CVFs are 4, 5, 6 or 15. In the cases when the space-time admits 15 independent CVFs it becomes conformally flat.
