We give a contribution about the study of homogeneous pseudoRiemannian structures on a type of homogeneous spaces, namely, the pseudo-Riemannian generalized symmetric spaces of low dimensions. It is well known that generalized symmetric Riemannian spaces admit homogeneous structures of the class T2 ⊕ T3. The same property holds in the pseudo-Riemannian context. The aim of the present paper is t...

We study canonical paracontact connection on a para-Sasakian manifold. We prove that a Ricci-flat para-Sasakian manifold with respect to canonical paracontact connection is an η-Einstein manifold.We also investigate some properties of curvature tensor, conformal curvature tensor,W2curvature tensor, concircular curvature tensor, projective curvature tensor, and pseudo-projective curvature tensor...

In this paper we consider pseudo projectively flat Riemannian manifold whose Ricci tensor S satisfies the condition S(X,Y ) = rT (X)T (Y ), where r is the scalar curvature, T is a non-zero 1-form defined by g(X, ξ) = T (X), ξ is a unit vector field and prove that the manifold is of pseudo quasi constant curvature, integral curves of the vector field ξ are geodesic and ξ is a proper concircular ...

We consider the sigma models where the base metric is proportional to the metric of the configuration space. We show that the corresponding sigma model equation admits a Lax pair. We also show that this type of sigma models in two dimensions are intimately related to the minimal surfaces in a flat pseudo Riemannian 3-space. We define two dimensional surfaces conformally related to the minimal s...
