Hypersurfaces in Riemannian manifolds with torse-forming axes

In this paper, we study orientable hypersurfaces $N$ in Riemannian manifolds $(M,\langle , \rangle)$ for which the inner product $\langle U, \mathcal{V} \rangle$ is constant, where $U$ is the unit normal vector field to $N$ and $\mathcal{V}$ is a globally defined torse-forming vector field on $M$, called the axis of $N$. When $\mathcal{V}$ is a unit torse-forming vector field, $N$ becomes a constant angle hypersurface with axis $\mathcal{V}$, and we classify such hypersufaces. After that, the case when $\mathcal{V}$ is a torqued vector field is considered and a corresponding classification is given.

Torqued and Anti-Torqued Vector Fields on Hyperbolic Spaces

In this paper, we study the existence of torqued and anti-torqued vector fields on the hyperbolic ambient space $\mathbb{H}^n$. Although there are examples of proper torqued vector fields on open subsets of $\mathbb{H}^n$, we prove that there is not a proper torqued vector field globally defined on $\mathbb{H}^n$. Similarly, we have another non-existence result for anti-torqued vector fields as long as their conformal scalar is a non-constant function satisfying certain conditions. When the conformal scalar is constant, some examples of anti-torqued vector fields are provided.

Anti-torqued slant helices and Torqued Curves in Riemannian manifolds

In this paper, we introduce the notion of an anti-torqued slant helix in a Riemannian manifold, defined as a curve whose principal vector field makes a constant angle with an anti-torqued vector field globally defined on the ambient manifold. We characterize and classify such curves through systems of differential equations involving their invariants. Several illustrative examples are also provided. Finally, we study torqued curves, defined as curves for which the inner product function of the principal vector field and a torqued vector field along the curve is a given constant.

Conformal Transformation of Kernels: A Geometric Perspective on Text Classification

In this article we investigate the effects of conformal transformations on kernel functions used in Support Vector Machines. Our focus lies in the task of text document categorization, which involves assigning each document to a particular category. We introduce a new Gaussian Cosine kernel alongside two conformal transformations. Building upon previous studies that demonstrated the efficacy of conformal transformations in increasing class separability on synthetic and low-dimensional datasets, we extend this analysis to the high-dimensional domain of text data. Our experiments, conducted on the Reuters dataset on two types of binary classification tasks, compare the performance of Linear, Gaussian, and Gaussian Cosine kernels against their conformally transformed counterparts. The findings indicate that conformal transformations can significantly improve kernel performance, particularly for sub-optimal kernels. Specifically, improvements were observed in 60% of the tested scenarios for the Linear kernel, 84% for the Gaussian kernel, and 80% for the Gaussian Cosine kernel. In light of these findings, it becomes clear that conformal transformations play a pivotal role in enhancing kernel performance, offering substantial benefits.

Classification of translation surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with constant sectional curvature

In this paper, we study translation surfaces in the Euclidean space endowed with a canonical semi-symmetric non-metric connection. We completely classify the translation surfaces of constant sectional curvature with respect to this connection, proving that they are generalized cylinders. This consequence is the same as in the case of the Levi-Civita connection, but in this new setting, there are also generalized cylinders whose sectional curvature can be constant or non-constant, in contrast to the Levi-Civita connection, where the Gaussian curvature is zero.

Constant sectional curvature surfaces with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection

Consider the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^3$ endowed with a canonical semi-symmetric non-metric connection determined by a vector field $\mathsf{C}\in\mathfrak{X}(\mathbb{R}^3)$. We study surfaces when the sectional curvature with respect to this connection is constant. In case that the surface is cylindrical, we obtain full classification when the rulings are orthogonal or parallel to $\mathsf{C}$. If the surface is rotational, we prove that the rotation axis is parallel to $\mathsf{C}$ and we classify all conical rotational surfaces with constant sectional curvature. Finally, for the particular case $\frac12$ of the sectional curvature, the existence of rotational surfaces orthogonally intersecting the rotation axis is also obtained.

Rectifying submanifolds of Riemannian manifolds with anti-torqued axis

In this paper we study rectifying submanifolds of a Riemannian manifold endowed with an anti-torqued vector field. For this, we first determine a necessary and sufficient condition for the ambient space to admit such a vector field. Then we characterize submanifolds for which an anti-torqued vector field is always assumed to be tangent or normal. A similar characterization is also done in the case of the torqued vector fields. Finally, we obtain that the rectifying submanifolds with anti-torqued axis are the warped products whose warping function is a first integration of the conformal scalar of the axis.

Warped Product Pointwise Semi-slant Submanifolds of Almost Contact Manifolds

Recently, B.-Y. Chen and O. J. Garay studied pointwise slant submanifolds of almost Hermitian manifolds. By using the notion of pointwise slant submanifolds, we investigate the geometry of pointwise semi-slant submanifolds and their warped products in Sasakian and cosymplectic manifolds. We prove that there exist no proper pointwise semi-slant warped product submanifold other than contact CR-warped products in Sasakian manifolds. We give non-trivial examples of such submanifolds in cosypmlectic manifolds and obtain several fundamental results, including a characterization for warped product pointwise semi-slant submanifolds.
