Peter Temple (regicide) Peter Temple (regicide) Peter Temple (ca. 1599–1663) was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1645 and 1653. He was one of the Regicides of King Charles I of England. Temple of Temple Hall was a member of the county association for defence in 1642. He was a captain of horse and accused of cowardice in fleeing Leicester to London when the Royalist army approached Leicester in 1645. He was however pardoned and elected Member of Parliament for Leicester later in 1645 for the Long Parliament as replacement for a Royalist and remained in the Rump
Conformal Killing equation Conformal Killing equation In conformal geometry, the conformal Killing equation on a manifold of space-dimension "n" with metric formula_1 describes those vector fields formula_2 which preserve formula_1 up to scale, i.e. for some function formula_5 (where formula_6 is the Lie derivative). Vector fields that satisfy the conformal Killing equation are exactly those vector fields whose flow preserves the conformal structure of the manifold. The name Killing refers to Wilhelm Killing, who first investigated the Killing equation for vector fields that preserve a Riemannian metric. By taking the trace we find that necessarily formula_7. Therefore we can write the conformal Killing
