In the present paper, we carried out a systematic investigation of pseudo-quasi-conformal curvature tensor has been made on the four-dimensional spacetime of general relativity. The spacetime fulfilling Einstein?s field equations with vanishing of pseudo-quasi-conformal curvature tensor is being considered and existence of Killing and conformal Killing vectors on such spacetime have been established. At last, we extend the similar case for the investigation of cosmological models with dust and perfect fluid spacetime.

In the differential geometry of certain [Formula: see text]-structures, the role of [Formula: see text]-curvature tensor is very well known. A detailed study of this tensor has been made on the spacetime of general relativity. The spacetimes satisfying Einstein field equations with vanishing [Formula: see text]-tensor have been considered and the existence of Killing and conformal Killing vector fields has been established. Perfect fluid spacetimes with vanishing [Formula: see text]-tensor have also been considered. The divergence of [Formula: see text]-tensor is studied in detail and it is seen, among other results, that a perfect fluid spacetime with conserved [Formula: see text]-tensor represents either an Einstein space or a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmological model.

We study the consequences of the existence of spacelike conformal Killing vectors (SpCKV) parallel to xa for cosmic strings and string fluid in the context of general relativity. The inheritance symmetries of the cosmic strings and string fluid are discussed in the case of SpCKV. Furthermore we examine proper homothetic spacelike Killing vectors for the cosmic strings and string fluid.

The object of the present paper is to characterize quasi-conformally flat and $\xi$-quasi-conformally flat almost Kenmotsu manifolds with  $(k,\mu)$-nullity and $(k,\mu)'$-nullity distributions respectively. Also we characterize almost Kenmotsu manifolds with vanishing extended quasi-conformal curvature tensor and extended $\xi$-quasi-conformally flat almost Kenmotsu manifolds such that the characteristic vector field $\xi$ belongs to the $(k,\mu)$-nullity distribution.

A generalized Robertson–Walker (GRW) space-time is the generalization of the classical Robertson–Walker space-time. In the present paper, we show that a Ricci simple manifold with vanishing divergence of the conformal curvature tensor admits a proper concircular vector field and it is necessarily a GRW space-time. Further, we show that a stiff matter perfect fluid space-time or a mass-less scalar field with time-like gradient and with divergence-free Weyl tensor are GRW space-times.

In the present paper generalizations of conformal curvature tensor from Riemannian space are given for five independent curvature tensors in generalized Riemannian space (GRN ), i.e. when the basic tensor is non-symmetric. In earlier works of S. Mincic and M. Zlatanovic et al a special case has been investigated, that is the case when in the conformal transformation the torsion remains invariant (equitorsion transformation). In the present paper this condition is not supposed and for that reason the results are more general and new.
