Abstract

Isotropic almost complex structures J δ , σ define a class of Riemannian metrics g δ , σ on tangent bundles of Riemannian manifolds which are a generalization of the Sasaki metric. In this paper, some results will be obtained on the integrability of these almost complex structures and the notion of a harmonic unit vector field will be introduced with respect to the metrics g δ , 0 . Furthermore, the necessary and sufficient conditions for a unit vector field to be a harmonic unit vector field will be obtained.
