摘要
The purpose of this article is to characterize conformal vector fields with respect to the Sasaki metric tensor field on the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold of dimension at least three. In particular, if the manifold in question is compact, it is found that the only conformal vector fields are Killing vector fields.
