xConf

xConf (2025-2026) is a small package for Mathematica in which tools are provided to formally compute Weyl rescalings, often called improperly conformal transformations. It is developed by Cyril Pitrou and Guillaume Faye. It is based on the xAct distribution for efficient tensor manipulations.

You first need to download and install xAct.
Then you can download the tarball of xConf's last released version (currently 0.0.1).
See the installation notes in order to install it correctly in your local Mathematica distribution.

Once installed, some documentation is available in the Documentation subfolder, and examples are found in the Examples subfolder. If you wish to have a glance at the package, you can download the pdf dump of the documentation.

The details of the algorithm will be available in an arXiv document. Please cite it if you use it.
