Abstract

The conharmonic transformation is a conformal trans-formation which satisfies a specified differential equation. Such a transformation was defined by Y. Ishii and we have generalized his results. Twisted product space is a generalized warped product space with a warping function defined on a whole space. In this paper, we partially classified the twisted product space and obtain a sufficient condition for a twisted product space to be locally Riemannian products.
