Let $(M,Q)$ be a compact, three dimensional manifold of strictly negative sectional curvature. Let $(\Sigma,P)$ be a compact, orientable surface of hyperbolic type (i.e. of genus at least two). Let $\theta:\pi_1(\Sigma,P)\to\pi_1(M,Q)$ be a…
This is an expository paper, which provides a first approach to nearly Kenmotsu manifolds. The purpose of this paper is to focus on nearly Kenmotsu manifolds and get some new results from it. We prove that for a nearly Kenmotsu manifold is…
It is well known that in Lorentzian geometry there are no compact spherical space forms; in dimension 3, this means there are no closed Einstein 3-manifolds with positive Einstein constant. We generalize this fact here, by proving that…
We study an odd-dimensional analogue of the Goldberg conjecture for compact Einstein almost K\"ahler manifolds. We give an explicit non-compact example of an Einstein almost cok\"ahler manifold that is not cok\"ahler. We prove that compact…
We study some properties of a $3$-dimensional manifold with a diagonal Riemannian metric as an almost $\eta$-Ricci soliton from the following points of view: under certain assumptions, we determine the potential vector field if $\eta$ is…
A conformal transformation of a semi-Riemannian manifold is essential if there is no conformally equivalent metric for which it is an isometry. For Riemannian manifolds the existence of an essential conformal transformation forces the…
We study null Sasakian structures in dimension five. First, based on a result due to Koll\'ar [Ko], we improve a result by Boyer, Galicki and Matzeu in [BGM] and prove that simply connected manifolds diffeomorphic to $# k(S^2\times S^3)$…
We consider Riemannian $n$-manifolds $M$ with nontrivial $\kappa$-nullity "distribution" of the curvature tensor $R$, namely, the variable rank distribution of tangent subspaces to $M$ where $R$ coincides with the curvature tensor of a…
We develop a $\kappa$-symmetry calculus for the d=2 and d=3, N=2 massive superparticles, which enables us to construct higher order $\kappa$-invariant actions. The method relies on a reformulation of these models as supersymmetric sigma…
We study almost K\"ahler manifolds whose curvature tensor satisfies the second curvature condition of Gray (shortly ${\cal{AK}}_2$). This condition is interpreted in terms of the first canonical Hermitian connection. It turns out that this…
We continue our study of ends of non-compact manifolds, with a focus on the inward tameness condition. For manifolds with compact boundary, inward tameness, has significant implications. For example, such manifolds have stable homology at…
The object of the present study is to study 3-dimensional generalized ($\kappa ,\mu $)-contact metric manifolds with $\tilde{W}\cdot R=0$ and $\tilde{W}\cdot H=0$ to cover all the eight equivalent classes given in \cite{Shaikh2}.
In a 4-manifold, the composition of a Riemannian Einstein metric with an almost paracomplex structure that is isometric and parallel, defines a neutral metric that is conformally flat and scalar flat. In this paper, we study hypersurfaces…
Inspired by the study of $V$-static manifold about classification, in this article, we apply the recent results obtained by Freitas and Gomes (Compact gradient Einstein-type manifolds with boundary, 2022) to prove the rigidity results for…
We study almost Kaehler manifolds whose curvature tensor satisfies the third curvature condition of Gray. We show that the study of manifolds within this class reduces to the study of a subclass having the property that the torsion of the…
Firstly we give a condition to split off the K"ahler factor from a nearly pseudo-K"ahler manifold and apply this to get a structure result in dimension 8. Secondly we extend the construction of nearly K"ahler manifolds from twistor spaces…
This paper focuses on the study of the newly introduced $\ast-\boldsymbol{\kappa}$-Ricci-Bourguignon almost soliton pertaining to Kenmotsu structure manifolds. Our analysis concerns the characteristics of this soliton and derive the scalar…
We compute a Bochner type formula for static three-manifolds and deduce some applications in the case of positive scalar curvature. We also explain in details the known general construction of the (Riemannian) Einstein (n+1)-manifold…
In this short survey, we show how two (classes of) known examples of inhomogeneous, curvature homogeneous Riemannian manifolds with nontrivial $\kappa$-nullity can be seen as deformations of homogeneous metrics along the vertical…
In the paper there are described new examples of conformally flat three dimensional almost cosymplectic manifolds. All these manifolds form a class which was completely characterized.
