Review text

A concircular mapping between two Riemannian manifolds \((V^n,g)\) and \(( \overline V^n, \overline g)\) is a conformal mapping of \((V^n,g)\) in \((\overline V^n, \overline g)\) which maps the geodesic circles in \((V^n,g)\) to geodesic circles in \((\overline V^n, \overline g)\). The mapping \[ \overline g_{ij} =e^{2 \sigma} g_{ij}, \quad \sigma\in {\mathcal F} (V), \] where \({\mathcal F} (V)\) denotes the space of functions on \(V\), is called concircular transformation. The author studies the invariants of concircular transformations.
