John Moore (regicide) John Moore (regicide) Colonel John Moore (1599–1650) was one of the regicides of King Charles I. John Moore was born into one of the oldest noble Moore families in England in 1599. By the early 1640s, John Moore (who was by now a Member of Parliament for Liverpool) was heavily involved with the early shipping trade, forging connections in Barbados. When English Civil War broke out in England in 1642, Moore pledged his allegiance to the Roundhead Parliamentarians as did most of Liverpool's burgesses, who were largely of Puritan stock. The nobles and gentry formed the bulk of the Cavaliers
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
