Homework Statement
Find all killing vectors of the 2-sphere.
Homework Equations
[itex] ds^2=dθ^2+(sinθ)^2d\phi^2[/itex]
The Attempt at a Solution
The goal of this problem is pretty self-explanatory; however, I didn't feel that the topic of killing vectors was covered very well in my course. I was just wondering if someone knew of a site which explained how to approach this sort of problem and the steps which need to be taken. Thanks in advance!
