Almost coK\"{a}hler manifolds in the context of mixed Killing vector field

A vector field $V$ on any (semi-)Riemannian manifold is said to be mixed Killing if for some nonzero smooth function $f$, it satisfies $L_VL_Vg=fL_Vg$, where $L_V$ is the Lie derivative along $V$. This class of vector fields, as a generalization of Killing vector fields, not only identify the isometries of the manifolds, but broadly also contain the class of homothety transformations. We prove an essential curvature identity along those fields on any (semi-)Riemannian manifold and thus generalize the Bochner's theorem for Killing vector fields in this setting. Later we study it in the framework of almost coK\"{a}hler structure and we prove that the Reeb vector field $\xi$ on an almost coK\"{a}hler manifold is mixed Killing if and only if the operator $h=0$. Moving further, we completely classify almost coK\"{a}hler manifolds with $\xi$ mixed Killing vector field in dimension 3. In particular, if $\xi$ on an $\eta$-Einstein almost coK\"{a}hler manifold is mixed Killing, then the manifold is of constant scalar curvature with $h=0$. Also we show that on any $(\kappa,\mu)$-almost coK\"{a}hler manifold, $\xi$ is mixed Killing if and only if the manifold is coK\"{a}hler. In the end we present few model examples in this context.

Some Characteristics of Almost $\omega$-Bach Solitons

In this article, we introduce $\omega$-Bach tensor corresponding to one form $\omega$ and correspondingly introduce almost $\omega$-Bach solitons, thereby generalizing the existing notion of Bach tensor and almost Bach solitons. We characterize almost $\omega$-Bach solitons, when the potential vector field of the soliton generates an infinitesimal harmonic transformation or is an affine conformal vector field, or is a projective vector field or is a Killing vector field, when the $\omega$-Bach tensor is divergence free, or is a harmonic $1$ form or is a Killing $1$-form. We generalize some of the results obtained by P. T. Ho and A. Ghosh. One of the main results of this paper is that we explicitly find some of the gradient almost $\omega$-Bach solitons on the product manifolds ${\mathbb S}^2\times{\mathbb H}^2$, $\mathbb{R}^2\times{\mathbb H}^2$ and $\mathbb{R}^2\times{\mathbb S}^2$. Our gradient almost $\omega$-Bach solitons generalize the almost Bach solitons on $\mathbb{R}^2\times{\mathbb H}^2$ and $\mathbb{R}^2\times{\mathbb S}^2$ found by P. T. Ho. Moreover, finding of our gradient almost $\omega$-Bach solitons on ${\mathbb S}^2\times{\mathbb H}^2$ is a novel one and complements to the existing almost Bach solitons described by P. T. Ho.

Quasi-isometry between two almost contact metric manifolds

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 quasi-isometrically embedded almost contact metric manifolds, $N(k)-$contact metric manifolds and Sasakian manifolds are investigated. Next, an illustrative example of a quasi-isometry between two Sasakian structures is constructed. Finally, a relation between the scalar curvature and the quasi-isometric constants for two quasi-isometric Riemannian manifolds has been established.

Nature of Some Solitons on Almost coK\"{a}hler Manifolds and Asymptotically Harmonic Manifolds

In this research, we study the nature of $\eta$-Einstein and gradient $\eta$-Einstein soliton in the framework of almost coK\"{a}hler manifolds and $(\kappa, \mu)$-almost coK\"{a}hler manifolds. We find some expressions for scalar curvature of the almost coK\"{a}hler manifold admitting $\eta$-Einstein soliton in various cases. We also prove that if a $(\kappa, \mu)$-almost coK\"{a}hler manifold admits a gradient $\eta$-Einstein soliton, then either the manifold is coK\"{a}hler, or $N(\kappa)$-almost coKahler, or the soliton is trivial. We present an example which validates our results. Finally, we investigate the asymptotically harmonic manifolds admitting non-trivial Ricci solitons and show that they exhibit rigid behavior if for example, scalar curvature attains maximum.

Some Solitons on Homogeneous Almost $\alpha$-Cosymplectic $3$-Manifolds and Harmonic Manifolds

In this paper, we investigate the nature of Einstein solitons, whether it is steady, shrinking or expanding on almost $\alpha$-cosymplectic $3$-manifolds. We also prove that a simply connected homogeneous almost $\alpha$-cosymplectic $3$-manifold, admitting a contact Einstein soliton, is an unimodular semidirect product Lie group. Finally, we show that a harmonic manifold admits a Ricci soliton if and only if it is flat.
