Abstract

The conharmonic transforamtion is a conformal transformation which satisfies a specified differential equation. Such a transformation was defined by Y. Ishi and we generalize his results. In particular, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the invariance of critical Riemannian metrics under the conharmonic transformation.
