First Order Symmetry Operators for the Linearized Field Equation of Metric Perturbations
Abstract
We determine the general form of the first order linear symmetry operators for the linearized field equation of metric perturbations in the spacetimes of dimension D>=4. Apart from the part derived easily from the invariance under general coordinate transformations, we find a part consisting of a Killing-Yano 3-form.
