Quasi contact metric manifolds (introduced by Y. Tashiro and then studied by several authors) are a natural extension of the contact metric manifolds. Weak almost contact metric manifolds, i.e., the linear complex structure on the contact…

Weak contact metric manifolds, i.e., the linear complex structure on the contact distribution is replaced by a nonsingular skew-symmetric tensor, defined by the author and R. Wolak, allowed a new look at the theory of contact manifolds. In…

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…

We introduce new metric structures on a smooth manifold (called "weak" structures) that generalize the almost contact, Sasakian, cosymplectic, etc. metric structures $(\varphi,\xi,\eta,g)$ and allow us to take a fresh look at the classical…

We study 5-dimensional Riemannian manifolds that admit an almost contact metric structure. In particular, we generalize the class of quasi-Sasaki manifolds and characterize these structures by their intrinsic torsion. Among other things, we…

The recent interest of geometers in the $f$-structures of K. Yano is motivated by the study of the dynamics of contact foliations, as well as their applications in theoretical physics. Weak metric $f$-structures on a smooth manifold,…

In the paper, we first study more general models, where $F$ has constant rank and is based on weak metric structures (introduced by the first author and R. Wolak), which generalize almost complex and almost contact metric $f$-contact…

We study the geometry of almost contact pseudo-metric manifolds in terms of tensor fields $h:=\frac{1}{2}\pounds _\xi \varphi$ and $\ell := R(\cdot,\xi)\xi$, emphasizing analogies and differences with respect to the contact metric case.…

We introduce generalized almost contact structures which admit the $B$-field transformations on odd dimensional manifolds. We provide definition of generalized Sasakain structures from the view point of the generalized almost contact…

A weak $f$-structure on a smooth manifold, introduced by the author and R. Wolak (2022), generalizes K. Yano's (1961) $f$-structure. This generalization allows us to revisit classical theory and discover new applications related to Killing…

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.

We carry on a systematic study of nearly Sasakian manifolds. We prove that any nearly Sasakian manifold admits two types of integrable distributions with totally geodesic leaves which are, respectively, Sasakian or $5$-dimensional nearly…

On a sub-Riemannian manifold, a connection with skew-symmetric torsion is defined as the unique connection from the class of $N$-connections that has this property. Two cases are considered separately: sub-Riemannian structure of even rank,…

The interest of mathematicians in metric $f$-manifolds, in particular, almost contact metric manifolds, is motivated by the study of the geometry and dynamics of contact foliations, as well as their applications in physics. Weak metric…

Linear connections satisfying the Einstein metricity condition are important in the study of generalized Riemannian manifolds $(M,G=g+F)$, where the symmetric part $g$ of $G$ is a non-degenerate $(0,2)$-tensor, and $F$ is the skew-symmetric…

In this article we study a class of normal{\theta}complex{\theta}contact{\theta}metric{\theta}manifold which is called a complex Sasakian manifold. This kind of manifold has a globally defined complex contact form and normal complex contact…

An $f$-structure, introduced by K. Yano in 1963 and subsequently studied by a number of geometers, is a higher dimensional analog of almost complex and almost contact structures, defined by a (1,1)-tensor field $f$ on a $(2n+p)$-dimensional…

The question of whether a Sasakian metric can admit an additional compatible (K-)contact structure is addressed. In the complete case if the second structure is also assumed Sasakian, works of Tachibana-Yu and Tanno show that the manifold…

In this paper the notion of quasi-isometry between two Riemannian manifolds has been introduced. This idea is also imposed to study quasi-isometry between two almost contact metric manifolds. Moving further, some curvature properties of two…
