Abstract

In this paper, we explore teleparallel conformal vector fields in non-static plane symmetric space-times in the teleparallel theory of gravitation using the direct integration technique and diagonal tetrads. This study will also cover the static plane symmetric space-times as well. In the teleparallel theory curvature of the non-static plane symmetric space-times is zero and the presence of torsion allows more symmetries. In this study after solving the integrabilty conditions it turns out that the dimension of teleparallel conformal vector fields are 5, 6, 7 or 8.
