A global extension theorem is established for isotropic singularities in polytropic perfect fluid Bianchi space-times. When an extension is possible, the limiting behaviour of the physical space-time near the singularity is analysed.

The purpose of this paper is to find conformal vector fields of some perfect fluid Kantowski-Sachs and Bianchi type III space-times in the f(R) theory of gravity using direct integration technique. In this study there exists only eight cases. Studying each case in detail, we found that in two cases proper conformal vector fields exist while in the rest of six cases conformal vector fields become Killing vector fields. The dimension of conformal vector fields is either 4 or 6.
We analyse conformal gauge, or isotropic, singularities in cosmological models in general relativity. Using the calculus of tractors, we find conditions in terms of tractor curvature for a local extension of the conformal structure through a cosmological singularity and prove a local extension theorem.
Curvature collineations of Bianchi type IV space-times are investigated using the rank of the 6X6 Riemann matrix and direct integration technique. From the above study it follows that the Bianchi type IV space-times possesses only one case when it admits proper curvature collineations. It is shown that proper curvature collineations form an infinite dimensional vector space.
We consider a five-dimensional Einstein--Cartan spacetime upon which Dirac spinor fields can be defined. Dirac spinor fields in five and four dimensions share many features, like the fact that both are described by four-component spinor fields, but they are also characterized by strong differences, like the fact that in five dimensions we do not have the possibility to project on left-handed and right-handed chiral parts unlike what happens in the four-dimensional instance: we conduct a polar decomposition of the spinorial fields, so to highlight all similarities and discrepancies. As an application of spinor fields in five dimensions, we study Bianchi-I spacetimes, verifying whether the Dirac fields in five dimensions can give rise to inflation or dark-energy dominated cosmological eras or not.
We study proper curvature collineations in the most general form of the Bianchi types VI_{0} and VII_{0} space-times using the rank of the 6X6 Riemann matrix and direct integration technique. It is shown that when the above space-times admit proper curvature collineations, they form an infinite dimensional vector space.
