In a previous paper, the authors together with L. Vrancken initiated the study of $3$-dimensional CR submanifolds of the nearly K\" ahler homogeneous $\mathbb S^3\times \mathbb S^3$. As is shown by Butruille this is one of only four…
Modelled on a real hypersurface in a quaternionic manifold, we introduce a quaternionic analogue of CR structure, called quaternionic CR structure. We define the strong pseudoconvexity of this structure as well as the notion of quaternionic…
This short paper gives a constraint on Chern classes of closed strictly pseudoconvex CR manifolds (or equivalently, closed holomorphically fillable contact manifolds) of dimension at least five. We also see that our result is ''optimal''…
We study manifolds endowed with an (almost) even Clifford (hermitian) structure and admitting a large automorphism group. We classify them when they are simply connected and the dimension of the automorphism group is maximal, and also prove…
In this work, we prove that every complex contact structure gives rise to a distinguished type of almost contact metric 3-structure. As an application of our main result, we provide several new examples of manifolds which admit taut contact…
In the paper we develop a framework for the alternative way of the study of a local geometry of almost cosymplectic manifolds with Kahlerian leaves. The main idea is to apply the concept of a geometry and analysis of CR manifolds. Locally…
In this paper we study the topology of pseudo convex CR manifolds whose Reeb flow preserves the Levi metric.
We consider locally homogeneous $CR$ manifolds and show that, under a condition only depending on their underlying contact structure, their $CR$ automorphisms form a finite dimensional Lie group.
We study $\mathcal D$-homothetic deformations of almost $\alpha$-Kenmotsu structures. We characterize almost contact metric manifolds which are $CR$-integrable almost $\alpha$-Kenmotsu manifolds, through the existence of a canonical linear…
In this paper, we study a general almost Schur Lemma on pseudo-Hermitian (2n+1)-manifolds $(M,J,\theta)$ for $n\geq2$. When the equality of almost Schur inequality holds, we derive the contact form $\theta$ is pseudo-Einstein and the…
For a smooth strictly pseudoconvex hypersurface in a complex manifold, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for being CR-diffeomorphic to a real-analytic CR manifold. Our condition amounts to a holomorphic extension property for the…
We consider smooth deformations of the $CR$ structure of a smooth $2$-pseudoconcave compact $CR$ submanifold $\textsf{M}$ of a reduced complex analytic variety $\textsf{X}$ outside the intersection $D\,{\cap}\,\textsf{M}$ with the support…
This paper is a study of almost contact statistical manifolds. Especially this study is focused on almost cosymplectic statistical manifolds. We obtained basic properties of such manifolds. It is proved a characterization theorem and a…
We classify the germs of $\mathcal{C}^\infty$ CR manifolds that admit a smooth CR contraction. We show that such a CR manifold is embedded into $\CC^n$ as a real hypersurface defined by a polynomial defining function consisting of monomials…
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…
We consider 6-dimensional strict nearly Kaehler manifolds acted on by a compact, cohomogeneity one automorphism group G. We classify the compact manifolds of this class up to G-diffeomorphisms. We also prove that the manifold has constant…
We study the stable embedding problem for a CR family of 3-dimensional strongly pseudoconvex CR manifolds with each fiber bounding a stein manifold.
We obtain a Bochner type formula and an estimate from below on the spectrum of the sublaplacian of a compact strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold.
The CR Yamabe constant is an invariant of a compact strongly pseudoconvex CR manifold and plays an important role in CR geometry. We show some integral formulae of the CR Yamabe constant. We also construct an infinite-dimensional family of…
In this paper we classify the simply connected, spherical pseudohermitian manifolds whose Webster metric is CR-symmetric.
