Abstract

The existence of an affine vector field in an Einstein-Maxwell space-time is discussed. We first consider the non-null electromagnetic field case, and show that there are no solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations admitting a proper affine collineation. In the case of a null electromagnetic field case, we characterize all the possible solutions with such property.
