Abstract

The purpose of the present paper is to find the necessary and sufficient condition for the special (α, β)−metric L = (b₁α²+b₂αβ+b₃β²) / (a₁α+a₂β) to be an Einstein metric. Here α is a Riemannian metric and β is a constant Killing one-form. 

Keywords and phrases. (α, β)−metric, constant Killing, spray curvature etc.
