Slant submanifolds in an almost paracontact metric manifold

Indefinite Almost Paracontact Metric Manifolds

In this paper we introduce the concept of (ε)-almost paracontact manifolds, and in particular, of (ε)-para Sasakian manifolds. Several examples are presented. Some typical identities for curvature tensor and Ricci tensor of (ε)-para Sasakian manifolds are obtained. We prove that if a semi-Riemannian manifold is one of flat, proper recurrent or proper Ricci-recurrent, then it can not admit an (ε...

Special connections in almost paracontact metric geometry

‎Two types of properties for linear connections (natural and almost paracontact metric) are discussed in almost paracontact metric geometry with respect to four linear connections‎: ‎Levi-Civita‎, ‎canonical (Zamkovoy)‎, ‎Golab and generalized dual‎. ‎Their relationship is also analyzed with a special view towards their curvature‎. ‎The particular case of an almost paracosymplectic manifold giv...

Warped Product Semi-Invariant Submanifolds in Almost Paracontact Riemannian Manifolds

We show that there exist no proper warped product semi-invariant submanifolds in almost paracontact Riemannian manifolds such that totally geodesic submanifold and totally umbilical submanifold of the warped product are invariant and anti-invariant, respectively. Therefore, we consider warped product semi-invariant submanifolds in the form N N⊥×fNT by reversing two factor manifolds NT and N⊥. W...
