The potential function problem for the Klein-Gordon equation. (English) Zbl 1498.37116

Summary: Several spaces which are decomposable are investigated in relation to the collineations and Lie symmetries of the Klein-Gordon equations. Nine classes of solutions are presented, including their conformal vectors. Some of the spaces represent perfect fluids or vacuum spaces. For each vector field, explicit expressions are obtained to define the potential function embedded into the Klein-Gordon equation.
