TL;DR: In this article, a conformal Killing tensor of degree p in a Sasakian space is studied and a decomposition theorem is proved for the form of the associated tensor.
Abstract: We deal with a horizontal conformal Killing tensor of degree p in a Sasakian space. After some preparations we prove that a horizontal conformal Killing tensor of odd degree is necessarily Killing. Moreover, we consider horizontal conformal Killing tensor of even degree. The form of the associated tensor is determined completely and a decomposition theorem is proved. Then we give the examples of a conformal Killing tensor of even degree and a special Killing tensor of odd degree with constant l.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define the tensor differential operators: divergence, curl and gradient, which act on a tensor of any rank, in terms of C-G coefficients, and obtain a matrix representation and useful properties for those operators.
Abstract: The quantum theory of angular momentum affords a treatment of tensors and vectors in a spherical basis. By using this theory we define the tensor differential operators: divergence, curl and gradient which act on a tensor of any rank, in terms of C-G coefficients. With these definitions we obtain a matrix representation and useful properties for those operators. An interesting application of this formalism is to find the wave equation of a tensor of any rank in a linear theory. This provides a new common way to look at the wave equations associated with both Maxwell's equations and the Maxwell-like equations for the linearized Weyl curvature tensor in gravitoelectromagnetism describing gravitational radiation on a Minkowski spacetime background.
