  • The W5-curvature tensor has been studied in the space- time of general relativity. The space-time satisfying Einstein's field equations with cosmological term and vanishing W5-curvature tensor has been considered and it has been shown that metric tensor is proportional to the energy-momentum tensor. The existence of Killing as well as conformal Killing vector fields have been shown. Further for a W5-flat perfect fluid space-time satisfying Einstein's field equations, the isotropic pressure has been found to be the function of cosmological constant and non-zero gravitational constant.

  • In [3] and [4], Kitahara, Pak and the author obtained the conformally invariant tensor $B_0$, which is an algebraic Hermitian analogue of the Weyl conformal curvature tensor W in the Riemannian geometry, by the decomposition of the curvature tensor H of the Hermitian connection and the notion of semi-curvature-like tensors of Tanno (see[7]). In [5], the author defined a conformally invariant tensor $B_0$ on a Hermitian manifold as a modification of $B_0$. Moreover he introduced the notion of local conformal Hermitian-flatness of Hermitian manifolds and proved that the vanishing of this tensor $B_0$ together with some condition for the scalar curvatures is a necessary and sufficient condition for a Hermitian manifold to be locally conformally Hermitian-flat.
