Various types of generalized conformal transformations in non-Riemannian manifolds and corresponding transformation properties of the geometrical objects are reviewed. Possible structures of conformally invariant gravity and matter Lagrangians in arbitrary space dimensions are discussed. New electrovac exact solutions of R+R2+Q2 gravity with conformally flat Bertotti-Robinson metric and nonzero torsion have been found.

AbstractIn this paper, we establish a finiteness theorem for $L^{p}$ L p harmonic 1-forms on a locally conformally flat Riemannian manifold under the assumptions on the Schrödinger operators involving the squared norm of the traceless Ricci form. This result can be regarded as a generalization of Han’s result on $L^{2}$ L 2 harmonic 1-forms.

In this paper, we will use a unitary gravitational action up to third-order of curvature with respect to the holographic a-theorem. In particular, its third-order term has a Weyl-cubed term. In this paper, we study this Weyl-cubed theory and find some of its exact classical solutions. We show that the theory admits conformally flat, Lifshitz, Schrödinger and also hyperscaling-violating backgrounds as the solutions of the equations of motion. Our analysis has been done for the pure Weyl-cubed gravity, Einstein plus Weyl-cubed term and gravity with matter.
