TWT - Twistor theory

In [Dunajski & Krynski 2021], a variational formulation for the conformal geodesic equation was introduced.  It was also shown in the same article that in the conformally flat case the same Lagrangian gives rise to a 4th order ODE called the conformal Mercator equation, to which conformal geodesics form a subclass of solutions.   In this talk, first integrals for solutions of the conformal Mercator equation derived using Noether’s principle and associated to conformal Killing vector fields will be discussed.
