Curvature Pinching and Eigenvalue Rigidity for Minimal Submanifolds.
In this study, S-manifolds endowed with a semi-symmetric metric connection naturally related with the S-structure are considered and some curvature properties of such a connection are given. In particular, the conditions of semi-symmetry, Ricci semi-symmetry and Ricci-projective semi-symmetry of this semi-symmetric metric connection are investigated.
We expound some results about the relationships between the Jacobi operators with respect to null vectors on a Lorentzian S-manifold and the Jacobi operators with respect to particular spacelike unit vectors. We study the number of the eigenvalues of such operators on Lorentzian S-manifolds satisfying the φ-null Osserman condition, under suitable assumptions on the dimension of the manifold. Then, we provide in full generality a new curvature characterization for Lorentzian S-manifolds and we use...
The present paper deals with the study of some properties of anti-invariant submanifolds of trans-Sasakian manifold with respect to a new non-metric affine connection called Zamkovoy connection. The nature of Ricci flat, concircularly flat, -projectively flat, -projectively flat, --projectively flat, pseudo projectively flat and -pseudo projectively flat anti-invariant submanifolds of trans-Sasakian manifold admitting Zamkovoy connection are discussed. Moreover, Ricci solitons on Ricci flat,...
We show that the Singer invariant of a four-dimensional homogeneous space is at most .
A six-parameter family is constructed of (algebraic) Riemannian curvature tensors in dimension four which do not belong to any curvature homogeneous space. Also a general method is given for a possible extension of this result.
