In the [Formula: see text] theory of gravity, we classify static plane symmetric perfect fluid space-times via proper conformal vector fields (CVFs) using algebraic and direct integration approaches. During this classification, we found eight cases. Studying each case in detail, we found that the dimensions of CVFs are 4, 5, 6 or 15. In the cases when the space-time admits 15 independent CVFs it becomes conformally flat.

We first find the dust solutions of static plane symmetric spacetimes in the theory of f(R) gravity. Then using the direct integration technique on the solutions obtained, we deduce the conformal vector fields. This is performed in the context of f(R) theory of gravity. There exist six cases. Out of these, in five cases the spacetimes become conformally flat and admit 15 conformal vector fields, whereas in the sixth case, conformal vector fields become Killing vector fields.

The aim of this paper is to classify non-conformally flat static plane symmetric (SPS) perfect fluid solutions via proper conformal vector fields (CVFs) in [Formula: see text] gravity. For this purpose, first we explore some SPS perfect fluid solutions of the Einstein field equations (EFEs) in [Formula: see text] gravity. Second, we utilize these solutions to find proper CVFs. In this study, we found 16 cases. A detailed study of each case reveals that in three of these cases, the space-times admit proper CVFs whereas in the rest of the cases, either the space-times become conformally flat or they admit proper homothetic vector fields (HVFs) or Killing vector fields (KVFs). The dimension of CVFs for non-conformally flat space-times in [Formula: see text] gravity is four, five or six.

In this paper, we classify proper non-static cylindrically symmetric (CS) perfect fluid space-times via conformal vector fields (CVFs) in the [Formula: see text] gravity. In order to classify the space-times, we use the algebraic and direct integration approaches. In the process of classification, there exist 23 cases for which the considered space-times become proper non-static. By studying each case in detail, we find that the conformal vector fields are of dimensions two, three and fifteen in the [Formula: see text] gravity.

In this paper, we explore teleparallel conformal vector fields in non-static plane symmetric space-times in the teleparallel theory of gravitation using the direct integration technique and diagonal tetrads. This study will also cover the static plane symmetric space-times as well. In the teleparallel theory curvature of the non-static plane symmetric space-times is zero and the presence of torsion allows more symmetries. In this study after solving the integrabilty conditions it turns out that the dimension of teleparallel conformal vector fields are 5, 6, 7 or 8.

In this paper, we present a study of proper conformal vector fields of spatially homogeneous rotating space-times in the [Formula: see text] theory of gravity. A total of six cases have been discussed in detail. It is found that the conformally non-flat spatially homogeneous rotating space-times do not admit proper conformal vector fields, while in a conformally flat case the space-time admits 15 independent conformal vector fields.

Nonstatic plane symmetric spacetimes are considered to study conformal vector fields (VFs) in the [Formula: see text] theory of gravity. Firstly, we investigate some proper nonstatic plane symmetric spacetimes by solving the Einstein field equations (EFEs) in the [Formula: see text] theory of gravity using algebraic techniques. Secondly, we find CVFs of the obtained spacetimes by means of the direct integration approach. There exist seven cases. Studying each case in detail, we find that the CVFs are of dimension three, five, six and fifteen.

The purpose of this paper is to find proper homothetic vector fields in plane symmetric perfect fluid static spacetimes in the [Formula: see text] theory of gravity by using direct integration technique. In this study, there exist six cases. Studying each case in detail, we found that in four cases proper homothetic vector fields exist while in the other two cases homothetic vector fields become Killing vector fields.

In this paper, we have studied proper conformal vector fields of pp-wave space-times in the [Formula: see text] theory of gravity using algebraic and direct integration techniques. From this study, we found that a very special class of pp-waves known as plane fronted gravitational waves (GWs) is a solution in the [Formula: see text] theory of gravity. In order to find proper conformal vector fields, plane GWs are further classified in ten cases. Studying each case in detail it turns out that in two cases proper conformal vector fields exist while in the rest of eight cases, conformal vector fields become homothetic vector fields.

A classification of static spherically symmetric space-times in [Formula: see text] theory of gravity according to their conformal vector fields (CVFs) is presented. For this analysis, a direct integration technique is used. This study reveals that for static spherically symmetric space-times in [Formula: see text] theory of gravity, CVFs are just Killing vector fields (KVFs) or homothetic vector fields (HVFs). For this classification, six cases have been discussed out of which there exists only one case for which CVFs become HVFs while in the rest of the cases CVFs become KVFs.
