Curvature Inheritance Symmetry In Riemannian Spaces with Applications to String Cloud and String Fluids

Abstract

We study, in this paper, curvature inheritance symmetry (CI), $\pounds_{\xi}R_{bcd}^{a}=2\alpha R_{bcd}^{a}$, where $\alpha $ is a scalar function, for string cloud and string fluid in the context of general relativity. Also, we have obtained some result when a proper CI (i.e., $\alpha \neq 0$) is also a conformal Killing vector.
