Abstract
We study the curvature tensors and field equations in then-dimensional SE manifold SEXn. We obtain several basic properties of the vectorsS λ andU λ and then of the SE curvature tensor and its contractions, such as a generalized Ricci identity, a generalized Bianchi identity, and two variations of the Bianchi identity satisfied by the SE Einstein tensor. Finally, a system of field equations is discussed in SEXn and one of its particular solutions is constructed and displayed.
