Projective Collineations in Warped Product Manifolds and (PRS)n Manifolds

Abstract

The current work first explores projective collineations on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. Projective collineations, curvature collineations, and Ricci curvature collineations are examined in relation to one another. On warped product manifolds, the projective collineations of the form ζ=ζ1+ζ2 are investigated. We scrutinize various inheritance aspects in projective collineations from warped product manifolds to its factor manifolds. This provides, for example, a partially negative solution to Besse’s problem regarding the existence of Einstein warped product manifolds. Finally, Pseudo-Ricci symmetric space-times admitting projective collineations are investigated.
