Ricci solitons on singly warped product manifolds and applications

The purpose of this article is to study implications of a Ricci soliton warped product manifold to its base and fiber manifolds. First, it is proved that if a warped product manifold is Ricci soliton then its factors are Ricci soliton. Then we study Ricci soliton on warped product manifolds admitting either a conformal vector field or a concurrent vector field. Finally, we study Ricci soliton on some warped product space-times.

Consequences of Minimal Length Discretization on Line Element, Metric Tensor and Geodesic Equation

When minimal length uncertainty emerging from generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) is thoughtfully implemented, it is of great interest to consider its impacts on {\it "gravitational} Einstein field equations (gEFE) and to try to find out whether consequential modifications in metric manifesting properties of quantum geometry due to quantum gravity. GUP takes into account the gravitational impacts on the noncommutation relations of length (distance) and momentum operators or time and energy operators, etc. On the other hand, gEFE relates {\it classical geometry or general relativity gravity} to the energy-momentum tensors, i.e. proposing quantum equations of state. Despite the technical difficulties, we confront GUP to the metric tensor so that the line element and the geodesic equation in flat and curved space are accordingly modified. The latter apparently encompasses acceleration, jerk, and snap (jounce) of a particle in the {\it "quasi-quantized"} gravitational field. Finite higher-orders of acceleration apparently manifest phenomena such as accelerating expansion and transitions between different radii of curvature, etc.

Gray s decomposition on doubly warped product manifolds and applications

A. Gray presented an interesting $O\left( n\right) $ invariant decomposition of the covariant derivative of the Ricci tensor. Manifolds whose Ricci tensor satisfies the defining property of each orthogonal class are called Einstein-like manifolds. In the present paper, we answered the following question: Under what condition(s), does a factor manifold $M_{i},i=1,2$ of a doubly warped product manifold $M=_{f_{2}}M_{1}\times _{f_{1}}M_{2}$ lie in the same Einstein-like class of $M$? By imposing sufficient and necessary conditions on the warping functions, an inheritance property of each class is proved. As an application, Einstein-like doubly warped product space-times of type $\mathcal{A},$ $\mathcal{B}$ or $\mathcal{P}$ are considered.

Convex and starshaped sets in manifolds without conjugate points

Let $\mathcal{W}^{n}$ be the class of $C^{\infty }$ complete simply connected $n-$dimensional manifolds without conjugate points. The hyperbolic space as well as Euclidean space are good examples of such manifolds. Let $% W\in \mathcal{W}^{n}$ and let $A$ be a subset of $W$. This article aims at characterization and building convex and starshaped sets in this class from inside. For example, it is proven that, for a compact starshaped set, the convex kernel is the intersection of stars of extreme points only. Also, if a closed unbounded convex set $A$ does not contain a totally geodesic hypersurface and its boundary has no geodesic ray, then $A$ is the convex hull of its extreme points. This result is a refinement of the well-known Karein-Millman theorem.

$2-$Killing Vector Fields on Warped Product Manifolds

The present article provides a study of $2-$Killing vector fields on warped product manifolds as well as characterization of this structure on standard static and generalized Robertson-Walker space-times. Some conditions for a $2-$Killing vector field on a warped product manifold to be parallel are obtained. Moreover, some results on the curvature of a warped product manifolds in terms of $2-$Killing vector fields are derived. Finally, we apply our results to describe $2-$Killing vector fields of some well known warped product space-time models.

Concircular curvature on warped product manifolds and applications

This study aims mainly at investigating the effects of concircular flatness and concircular symmetry of a warped product manifold on its fibre and base manifolds. Concircularly flat and concircularly symmetric warped product manifolds are investigated. The divergence free concircular curvature tensor on warped product manifolds is considered. Finally, we apply some of these results to generalized Robertson-Walker and standard static space-times.

The $W$-curvature tensor on relativistic space-times

This paper aims to study the $W$-curvature tensor on relativistic space-times. The energy-momentum tensor T of a space-time is semi-symmetric given that the $W$-curvature tensor is semi-symmetric whereas energy-momentum tensor T of a space-time having a divergence free $W$-curvature tensor is of Codazzi type. A space-time having a traceless $W$-curvature tensor is Einstein. A $W$-curvature flat space-time is Einstein. Perfect fluid space-times which admits $W$-curvature tensor are considered.

Perfect-fluid, generalised Robertson-Walker space-times, and Gray's decomposition

We give new necessary and sufficient conditions on the Weyl tensor for generalized Robertson-Walker (GRW) space-times to be perfect-fluid space-times. For GRW space-times, we determine the form of the Ricci tensor in all the O(n)-invariant subspaces provided by Gray's decomposition of the gradient of the Ricci tensor. In all but one, the Ricci tensor is Einstein or has the form of perfect fluid. We discuss the corresponding equations of state that result from the Einstein equation in dimension 4, where perfect-fluid GRW space-times are Robertson-Walker.

Sequential Warped Products: Curvature and Killing Vector Fields

In this note, we introduce a new type of warped products called as sequential warped products to cover a wider variety of exact solutions to Einstein's equation. First, we study the geometry of sequential warped products and obtain covariant derivatives, curvature tensor, Ricci curvature and scalar curvature formulas. Then some important consequences of these formulas are also stated. We provide characterizations of geodesics and two different types of conformal vector fields, namely, Killing vector fields and concircular vector fields on sequential warped product manifolds. Finally, we consider the geometry of two classes of sequential warped product space-time models which are sequential generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes and sequential standard static spacetimes.

On generalized quasi-Einstein GRW space-times

Recently, it is proven that generalized Robertson-Walker space-times in all orthogonal subspaces of Gray's decomposition but one(unrestricted) are perfect fluid space-times. GRW space-times in the unrestricted subspace are identified by having constant scalar curvature. Generalized quasi-Einstein GRW space-times have a constant scalar curvature. It is shown that generalized quasi-Einstein GRW space-times reduce to Einstein space-times or perfect fluid space-times.
