The authors make a study of global conformal vector fields on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds, in particular on Einstein manifolds and manifolds of constant scalar curvature. For Einstein spaces, a complete classification theorem is presented. In the more general case where the manifold has constant scalar curvature, a similar classification result is obtained for conformal vector fields which are closed, that is, are locally gradient vector fields.
