چکیده

We use the framework used by Bakry and Emery in their work on logarithmic Sobolev inequalities to define a notion of coarse Ricci curvature on smooth metric measure spaces alternative to the notion proposed by Y. Ollivier. This function can be used to recover the Ricci tensor on smooth Riemannian manifolds by the formula Ric(γ′ (0) , γ′ (0)) = 1 2 d ds2 Ric4g (x, γ (s)) for any curve γ(s).

Hoph Hypersurfaces of Sasakian Space Form with Parallel Ricci Operator Esmaiel Abedi, Mohammad Ilmakchi Department of Mathematics, Azarbaijan Shahid Madani University, Tabriz, Iran

Let M^2n be a hoph hypersurfaces with parallel ricci operator and tangent to structure vector field in Sasakian space form. First, we show that structures and properties of hypersurfaces and hoph hypersurfaces in Sasakian space form. Then we study the structure of hypersurfaces and hoph hypersurfaces with a parallel ricci tensor structure and show that there are two cases. In the first case, th...

Approximating Coarse Ricci Curvature on Metric Measure Spaces with Applications to Submanifolds of Euclidean Space

For a submanifold Σ ⊂ R Belkin and Niyogi showed that one can approximate the Laplacian operator using heat kernels. Using a definition of coarse Ricci curvature derived by iterating Laplacians, we approximate the coarse Ricci curvature of submanifolds Σ in the same way. More generally, on any metric measure we are able to approximate a 1-parameter family of coarse Ricci functions that include ...

Totally umbilical radical transversal lightlike hypersurfaces of Kähler-Norden manifolds of constant totally real sectional curvatures

In this paper we study curvature properties of semi - symmetric type of totally umbilical radical transversal lightlike hypersurfaces $(M,g)$ and $(M,widetilde g)$ of a K"ahler-Norden manifold $(overline M,overline J,overline g,overline { widetilde g})$ of constant totally real sectional curvatures $overline nu$ and $overline {widetilde nu}$ ($g$ and $widetilde g$ are the induced metrics on $M$...

On three-dimensional $N(k)$-paracontact metric manifolds and Ricci solitons

The aim of this paper is to characterize $3$-dimensional $N(k)$-paracontact metric manifolds satisfying certain curvature conditions. We prove that a $3$-dimensional $N(k)$-paracontact metric manifold $M$ admits a Ricci soliton whose potential vector field is the Reeb vector field $xi$ if and only if the manifold is a paraSasaki-Einstein manifold. Several consequences of this result are discuss...
