We introduce the notion of $\varepsilon\eta\,$-Einstein $\varepsilon\,$-contact metric three-manifold, which includes as particular cases $\eta\,$-Einstein Riemannian and Lorentzian (para) contact metric three-manifolds, but which in…

Generalized $(\kappa ,\mu )$ structures occur in dimension 3 only. In this dimension 3, only K-contact structures can occur as generalized Eta-Einstein. On closed manifolds, Eta-Einstein, K-contact structures which are not D-homothetic to…

We extend the notion of a Sasakian structure from the classical setting of a cooriented contact manifold, where it is given by a compatibility between a contact form $\eta$ and a Riemannian metric $g_M$ on $M$, to the case of an arbitrary…

We give the first example of a simply connected compact 5-manifold (Smale-Barden manifold) which admits a K-contact structure but does not admit any Sasakian structure, settling a long standing question of Boyer and Galicki.

The aim of this article is to study the interplay between the complex, and underlying real geometries of a K\"ahler manifold. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for certain anti-holomorphic automorphisms of a compact…

We show that the Einstein-Hilbert functional, as a functional on the space of Reeb vector fields, detects the vanishing Sasaki-Futaki invariant. In particular, this provides an obstruction to the existence of a constant scalar curvature…

Using the Hard Lefschetz Theorem for Sasakian manifolds, we find two examples of compact K-contact nilmanifolds with no compatible Sasakian metric in dimensions five and seven, respectively

We extract a new class of paracontact paracomplex Riemannian manifolds arising from certain cone construction, call it para-Sasaki-like Riemannian manifold and give explicit examples. We define a hyperbolic extension of a paraholomorphic…

A contact 3-manifold $M$ admitting a transversal Ricci soliton $(g,v,\lambda)$ is either Sasakian or locally isometric to one of the Lie groups SU(2), $SL(2,R)$, E(2), E(1,1) with a left invariant metric.

The aim of the present papar is to study the orbits of the isotropy gourp action on an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of compact type. Specifically, we examine the properties of these orbits as {\it CR} submanifolds of a K\"{a}hler…

Koll\'ar has found subtle obstructions to the existence of Sasakian structures on 5-dimensional manifolds. In the present article we develop methods of using these obstructions to distinguish K-contact manifolds from Sasakian ones. In…

The purpose of the present paper is to study the globally and locally $\varphi $-${\cal T}$-symmetric $\left( \varepsilon \right) $-para Sasakian manifold in dimension $3$. The globally $\varphi $-$ {\cal T}$-symmetric $3$-dimensional…

We show that the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator of the Laplacian on an open subset of the boundary of a connected compact Einstein manifold with boundary determines the manifold up to isometries. Similarly, for connected conformally compact…

We study the geometric properties of the base manifold for the unit tangent bundle satisfying the $\eta$-Einstein condition with the standard contact metric structure. One of the main theorems is that the unit tangent bundle of…

In this paper we study a special type of metric called *-Ricci soliton on para-Sasakian manifold. We prove that if the para-Sasakian metric is a *-Ricci soliton on a manifold M, then M is either D-homothetic to an Einstein manifold, or the…

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…

We prove that for every natural number k there are simply connected topological four-manifolds which have at leat k distinct smooth structures supporting Einstein metrics, and also have infinitely many distinct smooth structures not…

Negative Sasakian manifolds, where the first Chern class of the contact subbundle is a torsion class, can be viewed as Seifert-$S^1$ bundles where the base orbifold has an ample orbifold canonical class. We use this framework to settle…

In this work, we investigate the geometry and topology of compact Einstein-type manifolds with nonempty boundary. First, we prove a sharp boundary estimate, as consequence we obtain under certain hypotheses that the Hawking mass is bounded…

In this paper, we investigate the geometry of Einstein-type equation on a Riemannian manifold, unifying various particular geometric structures recently studied in the literature, such as critical point equation and vacuum static equation.…
