A series of examples of toric Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifolds is constructed. These are submanifolds of toric 3-Sasaki 7-manifolds and such a Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifold corresponds uniquely to a toric 3-Sasaki 7-manifold. This produces examples…
The author is planning if possible classify all three-dimensional $(\kappa,\mu)$-manifolds wether contact metric, almost cosymplectic, para-contact metric, almost para-cosymplectic. Of course classification in contact or almost cosymplectic…
We develop a spinorial description of CR structures of arbitrary codimension. More precisely, we characterize almost CR structures of arbitrary codimension on (Riemannian) manifolds by the existence of a Spin$^{c, r}$ structure carrying a…
A Sasakian structure on a manifold is called {\it positive} if its basic first Chern class can be represented by a positive (1,1)-form with respect to its transverse holomorphic CR-structure. We prove a theorem that says that every positive…
Under a pulled-back approach given in [1] and firstly presented in [2], we introduce, in this paper, the concepts of almost contact and normal almost contact Finsler structures on the pulled-back bundle. Properties of structures partly…
We review the construction of almost contact metric (three-) structures, abbreviated ACM(3)S, on manifolds with a $G_2$ structure. These are of interest for certain supersymmetric configurations in string and M-theory. We compute the…
In this paper we have studied the properties of covariant almost analytic vector field on Q - quasi umbilical hypersurface $M$ of a Sasakian manifold $\tilde M$ with $(\phi, g, u, v, \lambda)-$structure and obtained the scalars $\alpha$ and…
A Sasakian quasi-Killing spinor (SqK-spinor), which is a generalization of a Killing spinor on Sasakian manifolds, was defined in \cite{Kim Friedrich 2000}.The purpose of this paper is to study in detail SqK-spinors on three-dimensional…
The join construction produces a third Sasaki manifold from two others, and we investigate the algebraic topology of the joins of circle bundles over surfaces of positive genus with weighted three-spheres. Topologically, such a join has the…
In this paper we initiate the study of quasi Yamabe soliton on 3-dimensional contact metric manifold with Q\varphi=\varphi Q and prove that if a 3-dimensional contact metric manifold M such that Q\varphi=\varphi Q admits a quasi Yamabe…
Weak almost contact manifolds, i.e., the linear complex structure on the contact distribution is approximated by a nonsingular skew-symmetric tensor, defined by the author and R. Wolak (2022), allowed a new look at the theory of contact…
Sasakian manifolds provide explicit formulae of some Jacobi operators which describe the biharmonic equation of curves in Riemannian manifolds. In this paper we characterize non-geodesic biharmonic curves in Sasakian manifolds which are…
Recent work Bobienski-Nurowski on 5-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with an SO(3) structure prompts us to investigate which Lie groups admit such a geometry. The case in which the SO(3) structure admits a compatible connection with torsion…
In this paper, the notion of an almost contact K\"ahlerian structure is introduced. The interior geometry of almost contact K\"ahlerian spaces is investigated. On the zero-curvature distribution of an almost contact metric structure, as on…
We introduce the notion of abelian almost contact structures on an odd dimensional real Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. This a sufficient condition for the structure to be normal. We investigate correspondences with even dimensional real Lie…
This article is a summary of some of the author's work on Sasaki-Einstein geometry. A rather general conjecture in string theory known as the AdS/CFT correspondence relates Sasaki-Einstein geometry, in low dimensions, to superconformal…
In this paper, we study and almost completely classify contact structures on closed 3--manifolds which are totally geodesic for some Riemannian metric. Due to previously known results, this amounts to classifying contact structures on…
Let $(\varphi_\alpha,\xi_\alpha,g)$ for $\alpha=1,2$, and $3$ be a contact metric $3$-structure on the manifold $M^{4n+3}$. We show that the $3$-contact distribution of this structure admits a HyperKahler structure whenever…
There are studied in details 5-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifolds equipped with the structure analogous to the almost cosymplectic (almost coKaehler) structure. The curvature by assumption commutes with the structure affinor and all…
A dualistic structure on a smooth Riemaniann manifold $M$ is a triple $(M,g,\nabla)$ with $g$ a Riemaniann metric and $\nabla$ an affine connection, generally assumed to be torsionless. From $g$ and $\nabla$, the dual connection $\nabla^*$…
