Abstract

We compute the condition of minimality of a G-structure for the Gray-Hervella class W4\mathcal{W}_4 of almost hermitian manifolds and C5\mathcal{C}_5 class of almost contact metric structures. We also consider C4\mathcal{C}_4 class by comparison with the Grey-Hervella class W4\mathcal{W}_4. The common feature is the existence of the Lee form θ\theta representing these structures. We show that these classes contain minimal G-structures. Here, minimality means minimality of a GG-structure inside oriented orthonormal frame bundle SO(M)SO(M) of a Riemannian manifold MM.
