On weakly conformally symmetric manifolds. (English) Zbl 1224.53033

A weakly conformally symmetric manifold is a Riemannian manifold whose covariant derivative of its Weyl conformal curvature tensor \(C\) satisfies certain generalization of recurrence relation. The authors show that an Einstein weakly conformally symmetric manifold reduces to a weakly symmetric manifold. They also consider transformations of a weakly conformally symmetric manifold in a manifold of the same type. Several examples of weakly conformally symmetric manifolds with non-vanishing scalar curvature are constructed.
