Abstract

We study paracontact metric (κ,μ)(\kappa,\mu)-spaces with κ=1\kappa=-1, equivalent to h2=0h^2=0 but not h=0h=0. In particular, we will give an alternative proof of Theorem 3.2 of [11] and present examples of paracontact metric (1,2)(-1,2)-spaces and (1,0)(-1,0)-spaces of arbitrary dimension with tensor hh of every possible constant rank. We will also show explicit examples of paracontact metric (1,μ)(-1, \mu)-spaces with tensor hh of non-constant rank, which were not known to exist until now.
