We study 4-dimensional simply connected Lie groups $G$ with left-invariant Riemannian metric $g$ admitting non-trivial conformal Killing 2-forms. We show that either the real line defined by such a form is invariant under the group action, or the metric is half conformally flat. In the first case, the problem reduces to the study of invariant conformally Kähler structures, whereas in the second case, the Lie algebra of $G$ belongs (up to homothety) to a finite list of families of metric Lie algebras.
We study conformal Killing forms on compact 6-dimensional nearly Kähler manifolds. Our main result concerns forms of degree 3. Here we give a classification showing that all conformal Killing 3-forms are linear combinations of $d ω$ and its Hodge dual $* dω$ where $ω$ is the fundamental 2-form of the nearly Kähler structure. The proof is based on a fundamental integrability condition for conformal Killing forms. We have partial results in the case of conformal Killing 2-forms. In particular we show the non-existence of J-anti-invariant Killing 2-forms.
We study the Minkowski formula of conformal Killing-Yano two-forms in a spacetime of constant curvature. We establish the spacetime Alexandrov theorem with a free boundary.
On a closed, connected Riemannian manifold with a Kähler foliation of codimension $q=2m$, any transverse Killing $r\ (\geq 2)$-form is parallel (S. D. Jung and M. J. Jung [\ref{JJ2}], Bull. Korean Math. Soc. 49 (2012)). In this paper, we study transverse conformal Killing forms on Kähler foliations and prove that if the foliation is minimal, then for any transversal conformal Killing $r$-form $ϕ$ $(2\leq r \leq q-2)$, $Jϕ$ is parallel. Here $J$ is defined in Section 4.

Given a complete, Ricci-flat 4-manifold with a Killing field, we give an estimate on the manifold's energy in terms of a certain asymptotic quantity of the Killing field. If the Killing field has no zeros and satisfies a certain asymptotic condition, the manifold is flat.
We study left invariant conformal Killing-Yano (CKY) $2$-forms on Lie groups endowed with a left invariant metric. We classify all $5$-dimensional metric Lie algebras carrying CKY tensors that are obtained as a one-dimensional central extension of 4-dimensional metric Lie algebras endowed with a invertible parallel skew-symmetric tensor. On the other hand, we also classify $5$-dimensional metric Lie algebras with center of dimension greater than one admitting strict CKY tensors. In addition, we determine all possible CKY tensors on these metric Lie algebras. In particular, we exhibit the first…
The aim of this paper is to classify compact, simply connected Kähler manifolds which admit J-invariant Killing tensor with two eigenvalues of multiplicity 2 and n-2 and with constant eigenvalue corresponding to 2-dimensional eigendistribution.
Manifolds admitting Killing spinors are Einstein manifolds. Thus, a deformation of a Killing spinor entails a deformation of Einstein metrics. In this paper, we study infinitesimal deformations of Killing spinors on nearly parallel $\mathrm{G}_2$-manifolds. Since there is a one-to-one correspondence between nearly parallel $\mathrm{G}_2$-structures and Killing spinors on 7-dimensional spin manifolds, our results imply that infinitesimal deformations of nearly parallel $\mathrm{G}_2$-structures are examined in terms of Killing spinors. Applying the same technique, we identify that the space of …
Motivated by the study of Killing forms on compact Riemannian manifolds of negative sectional curvature, we introduce the notion of generalized vector cross products on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and give their classification. Using previous results about Killing tensors on negatively curved manifolds and a new characterization of $\mathrm{SU}(3)$-structures in dimension $6$ whose associated $3$-form is Killing, we then show that every Killing $3$-form on a compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with negative sectional curvature vanishes if $n\ge 4$.
Riemannian manifolds with non-zero Killing spinors are Einstein manifolds. Klaus Kröncke proved that all complete Riemannian manifolds with imaginary Killing spinors are (linearly) strictly stable in \cite{Kro15}. In this paper, we obtain a new proof for this stability result by using a Bochner type formula in \cite{DWW05} and \cite{Wan91}. Moreover, existence of real Killing spinors is closely related to the Sasaki-Einstein structure. A regular Sasaki-Einstein manifold is essentially the total space of a certain principal $S^{1}$-bundle over a Kähler-Einstein manifold. We prove that if the ba…
The present article provides a study of $2-$Killing vector fields on warped product manifolds as well as characterization of this structure on standard static and generalized Robertson-Walker space-times. Some conditions for a $2-$Killing vector field on a warped product manifold to be parallel are obtained. Moreover, some results on the curvature of a warped product manifolds in terms of $2-$Killing vector fields are derived. Finally, we apply our results to describe $2-$Killing vector fields of some well known warped product space-time models.
Semi-Riemannian $\text{spin}^c$ manifolds carrying generalized Killing spinors and the classification of Riemannian $\text{spin}^c$ manifolds admitting a type I imaginary generalized Killing spinor
The defining equations for Killing vector fields and conformal Killing vector fields are overdetermined systems of PDE. This makes it difficult to solve the systems numerically. We propose an approach which reduces the computation to the solution of a symmetric eigenvalue problem. The eigenvalue problem is then solved by finite element techniques. The formulation itself is valid in any dimension and for arbitrary compact Riemannian manifolds. The numerical results which validate the method are given in two dimensional case.
