Conformal symmetry of perfect fluids in general relativity

Rigidly rotating perfect fluids admitting two Killing vectors ξ (stationarity), η (axial symmetry), and a proper conformal Killing vector K are studied. The three‐dimensional Lie algebra [ξ,η]=0, [ξ,K]=a 4 K, [η,K]=a 3 K, a 3 2+a 4 2≠0 is considered. It is shown that under these assumptions there ar...

Zusammenfassung:Rigidly rotating perfect fluids admitting two Killing vectors ξ (stationarity), η (axial symmetry), and a proper conformal Killing vector K are studied. The three‐dimensional Lie algebra [ξ,η]=0, [ξ,K]=a 4 K, [η,K]=a 3 K, a 3 2+a 4 2≠0 is considered. It is shown that under these assumptions there are no space‐times satisfying Einstein’s field equations.
