In this paper, we consider {\em mixed curvature} $\mathcal{C}_{a,b}$, which is a convex combination of Ricci curvature and holomorphic sectional curvature introduced by Chu-Lee-Tam. We prove that if a compact complex manifold $M$ admits a…

Let \((M^n,g)\) be a smooth closed Riemannian manifold of dimension \(n \ge 5\) with positive Yamabe invariant and semi-positive \(Q\)-curvature. We establish a precompactness result in the \(C^{\alpha}\)-H\"older topologie on the space of…

In this paper, we consider $*$-Ricci soliton in the frame-work of Kenmotsu manifolds. First, we prove that if the metric of a Kenmotsu manifold $M$ is a $*$-Ricci soliton, then soliton constant $\lambda$ is zero. For 3-dimensional case, if…

Let $(M,g)$ be an analytic Riemannian manifold of dimension $n \geq 5$. In this paper, we consider the so-called constant $Q$-curvature equation \[ \varepsilon^4\Delta_{g}^2 u -\varepsilon^2 b \Delta_{g} u +a u = u^{p} , \qquad \text{in }…

In the first part of this note we study compact Riemannian manifolds (M,g) whose Riemannian product with R is conformally Einstein. We then consider compact 6--dimensional almost Hermitian manifolds of type W_1+W_4 in the Gray--Hervella…

It is well known that a unit sphere admits Sasakian 3-structure. Also, Sasakian manifolds are locally isometric to a unit sphere under several curvature and critical conditions. So, a natural question is: Does there exist any curvature or…

We provide a new, self-contained and more conceptual proof of the result that an almost contact metric manifold of dimension greater than 5 is Sasakian if and only if it is nearly Sasakian.
