Abstract

In this paper, we intend to explore Conformal Vector Fields (CVFs) of the Locally Rotationally Symmetric (LRS) Bianchi type-I cosmological model within the setup of f ( Q, T ) gravity, where Q denotes the non-metricity scalar and T is the trace of stress energy tensor. We start with a linear form of f ( Q, T ) gravity to solve equations of motion in the background of a type I LRS Bianchi cosmological model. We then follow a general form of the function f ( Q, T ) along with some additional constraints to explore exact space-times. With the help of such general form, we construct four types of non-trivial f ( Q, T ) gravity models. These models are in square root form, power law form, an exponential as well as a logarithmic form. Applying these f ( Q, T ) gravity models, we explore a variety of cosmological solutions admitting rotational symmetry. For these cosmological solutions, we find the CVFs. We observe that the constructed LRS Bianchi type-I solutions admit CVFs of dimension four, five, six, or fifteen. The physical entities like energy density and pressure associated with each Bianchi cosmological model are also being discussed.
