Abstract

This paper aims to investigate Conformal Vector Fields (CVFs) of Bianchi type-I spacetimes. A set of 10-coupled Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) is obtained from the conformal Killing equations. These equations are solved by using direct integration techniques to explore the components of CVFs. Utilizing these components, we get a system of three integrability conditions. Finally, we achieve CVFs along with conformal factors for unique possibilities of unknown metric functions from the solution of these conditions. From our results, it is examined that Bianchi type-I spacetimes admit five or fifteen CVFs for specific choices of metric functions.
