In this paper we consider the Boothby-Wang construction over twist 1 stage 3 Bott orbifolds given in terms of the log pair $(S_{\bf n},\Delta_{\bf m})$. We give explicit constant scalar curvature (CSC) Sasaki metrics either directly from…

We study the global geometry of surfaces in Sasakian space forms whose mean curvature vector is parallel in the normal bundle (these include the Riemannian Heisenberg space of dimension $2n+1$). We prove a codimension reduction theorem. We…

We investigate the analog of holomorphic vector bundles in the context of Sasakian manifolds.

The space of all Riemannian metrics is infinite-dimensional. Nevertheless a great deal of usual Riemannian geometry can be carried over. The superspace of all Riemannian metrics shall be endowed with a class of Riemannian metrics; their…

Using the Sasakian join construction with homology 3-spheres, we give a countably infinite number of examples of Sasakian manifolds with perfect fundamental group in all odd dimensions greater than 1. These have extremal Sasaki metrics with…

The classical tools which ensure the completeness of vector fields and second order differential equations for mechanical systems are revisited. Possible extensions in three directions are discussed: infinite dimensional Banach and Hilbert…

We construct natural Riemannian metrics on Seiberg-Witten moduli spaces and study their geometry.

In this expository article we review the problem of finding Einstein metrics on compact K\"ahler manifolds and Sasaki manifolds. In the former half of this article we see that, in the K\"ahler case, the problem fits better with the notion…

Sasakian manifolds are odd-dimensional counterpart to Kahler manifolds. They can be defined as contact manifolds equipped with an invariant Kahler structure on their symplectic cone. The quotient of this cone by the homothety action is a…

By virtue of the well-known theorem, a structure Lie group K of a principal bundle $P$ is reducible to its closed subgroup H iff there exists a global section of the quotient bundle P/K. In gauge theory, such sections are treated as Higgs…

In this expository article we discuss the relations between Sasakian geometry, reduced holonomy and supersymmetry. It is well known that the Riemannian manifolds other than the round spheres that admit real Killing spinors are precisely…

H. A. Hayden [1] introduced the idea of semi-symmetric non-metric connection on a Riemannian manifold in (1932). Agashe and Chafle \cite{1} defined and studied semi-symmetric non-metric connection on a Riemannian manifold. In the present…

A structure on an almost contact metric manifold is defined as a generalization of well-known cases: Sasakian, quasi-Sasakian, Kenmotsu and cosymplectic. Then we consider a semi-invariant $\xi^{\bot}$-submanifold of a manifold endowed with…

We discover a fundamental exterior differential system of Riemannian geometry; indeed, an intrinsic and invariant global system of differential forms of degree $n$ associated to any given oriented Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n+1$.…

We investigate harmonic forms of geometrically formal metrics, which are defined as those having the exterior product of any two harmonic forms still harmonic. We prove that a formal Sasakian metric can exist only on a real cohomology…

In this paper, we induce a semi-Riemannian metric on the $r$-null submanifold. We establish the links between the null geometry and basics invariants of the associated semi-Riemannian geometry on $r$-null submanifold and semi-Riemannian…

In this paper, we deal with harmonic metrics with respect to generalized Kantowski-Sachs type spacetime metrics. We also consider the Sasaki, horizontal and complete lifts of generalized Kantowski-Sachs type spacetime metrics to tangent…

We study harmonic sections of a Riemannian vector bundle whose total space is equipped with a 2-parameter family of metrics which includes both the Sasaki and Cheeger-Gromoll metrics. This enables the theory of harmonic unit sections to be…

Given a null hypersurface $L$ of a Lorentzian manifold, we construct a Riemannian metric $\widetilde{g}$ on it from a fixed transverse vector field $\zeta$. We study the relationship between the ambient Lorentzian manifold, the Riemannian…

In this continuation of \cite{BK} we investigate the non-abelian Hodge correspondence on compact Sasakian manifolds with emphasis on the quasi-regular case. On quasi-regular Sasakian manifolds, we introduce the notions of quasi-regularity…
