Abstract

Sufficient conditions on the Christoffel symbols and metric tensors to insure the existence of affine collineations in Riemann spaces are obtained. A proof of the group property of affine collineations is given. Several examples of physically relevant Riemannian spaces admitting affine collineations are presented and the constants of motion are constructed.
