Perfect fluid spacetimes with harmonic generalized curvature tensor (Q2631638): Difference between revisions

Let \(M\) be a Riemannian manifold, \(I\) a real open interval with the negative definite metric \((-dt^2)\) and \(q\) a smooth positive real-valued function on \(I\). The warped product \(I \times_{q^2} M\) is a Lorentzian manifold, called generalized Robertson-Walker (GRW) spacetime. In this paper, the authors find sufficient conditions for a perfect fluid spacetime in order to be (GRW): having divergence-free conformal curvature tensor and constant scalar curvature; being a Yang pure space; having harmonic generalized curvature tensor (under certain conditions). In particular, this happens for perfect fluids with divergence-free projective, concircular, conharmonic or quasi-conformal curvature tensor.
