By using the concept of isometry Killing vectors were introduced. Generalizing the
Killing vectors Killing tensors of rank two were briefly introduced. Their metrical
properties have been dealt.With this path Killing &ndash / Yano tensors were introduced as
being some hidden space-time symmetries and also square roots of Killing tensors of
rank two. Also physical importance of Killing &ndash / Yano tensors were briefly
introduced. A calculation for 4D pp-wave metric is reviewed. Standart 5-D Kaluza-
Klein theory is rewieved in an anholonomic base. 5- D Killing &ndash / Yano equations are
written in this base. Simplified forms of these equations are given and the necessary
conditions on the EM field tensor and the KY tensor are presented
