We study a remarkable class of paracontact metric manifolds which have no contact metric counterpart: the paracontact metric $(-1,\widetilde\mu)$-spaces which are not paraSasakian (i.e. have $\widetilde h\neq0$). We present explicit…
In 1990, D. Chinea and C. Gonzalez gave a classification of almost contact metric manifolds into $2^{12}$ classes, based on the behaviour of the covariant derivative $\nabla^g\Phi$ of the fundamental $2$-form $\Phi$. This large number makes…
This paper applies the Newman-Penrose formalism-a technique primarily used in General Relativity-to the analysis of three-dimensional almost contact metric (ACM) manifolds. We reformulate and discuss several known notions and properties…
The aim of this paper is to classify compact Kahler manifolds with quasi-constant holomorphic sectional curvature.
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a closed orientable 9-manifold M to admit an almost contact structure. The conditions are stated in terms of the Stiefel-Whitney classes of M and other more subtle homotopy invariants of M. By…
We consider manifolds endowed with a contact pair structure. To such a structure are naturally associated two almost complex structures. If they are both integrable, we call the structure a normal contact pair. We generalize the Morimoto's…
We study real affine hypersurfaces $f\colon M\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{2n+2}$ with an almost paracontact structure $(\varphi ,\xi,\eta)$ induced by a $\widetilde{J}$-tangent transversal vector filed, where $\widetilde{J}$ is the canonical…
Locally conformal almost quasi-Sasakian manifolds set up a wide class of almost contact metric manifolds containing several interesting subclasses. Contact-complex Riemannian submersions whose total space belongs to each of the considered…
Starting from a cubic form, we give a general construction of a quasi-complete homogeneous manifold endowed with a natural contact structure. We show that it can be compactified into a projective contact manifold if and only if the cubic…
We introduce the concept of generalized almost plastic structure, and, on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold endowed with two $(1,1)$-tensor fields satisfying some compatibility conditions, we construct a family of generalized almost plastic…
We introduce the classes of holomorphic $p$-contact manifolds and holomorphic $s$-symplectic manifolds that generalise the classical holomorphic contact and holomorphic symplectic structures. After observing their basic properties and…
The object of investigation are the almost contact manifolds with B-metric in the lowest dimension three, constructed on Lie algebras. It is considered a relation between the classes in the Bianchi classification of three-dimensional real…
We give a local classification of generalized (kappa,mu)-Paracontact Metric Manifold which satisfies the condition xi(mu)=0. An example of such manifolds is presented.
For almost contact metric or almost paracontact metric manifolds there is natural notion of $\eta$-normality. Manifold is called $\eta$-normal if is normal along kernel distribution of characteristic form. In the paper it is proved that…
In this paper, we present the invalidities of the results in [3], because of their definition of a semi-invariant submanifold of an almost complex contact metric manifold is not true .
Manifolds endowed with three foliations pairwise transversal are known as 3-webs. Equivalently, they can be algebraically defined as biparacomplex or complex product manifolds, i.e., manifolds endowed with three tensor fields of type…
We provide a general method to construct examples of quasi-Sasakian 3-structures on a (4n+3)-dimensional manifold. Moreover, among this class, we give the first explicit example of a compact 3-quasi-Sasakian manifold which is not the global…
We construct new examples of various solitons as warped products. There are classes of complete Ricci almost solitons and complete Ricci-Bourguignon solitons that can be explicitly described in terms of elementary functions.
We introduce the class of extended admissible groups, which include both fundamental groups of non-geometric 3-manifolds and Croke-Kleiner admissible groups. We show that the class of extended admissible groups is quasi-isometrically rigid.
This work concludes a series of four papers on the foundational theory of orbifolds and stacks. We apply the abstract theory, developed in its predecessors, to orbifolds derived from manifolds. Specifically, we show how the very concrete…
