Submanifolds with harmonic mean curvature vector field in contact 3-manifolds
Biharmonic or polyharmonic curves and surfaces in 3-dimensional contact manifolds are investigated.
Biharmonic or polyharmonic curves and surfaces in 3-dimensional contact manifolds are investigated.
We classify Hopf cylinders with proper mean curvature vector field in Sasakian 3-manifolds with respect to the Tanaka-Webster connection.
A trans-Sasakian 3-manifold is pseudo-symmetric if and only if it is η-Einstein. In particular, a quasi-Sasakian 3-manifold is pseudo-symmetric if and only if it is a coKähler manifold or a homothetic Sasakian manifold. Some examples of non-Sasakian pseudo-symmetric contact 3-manifolds are exhibited.
We give a complete classification of surfaces with parallel second fundamental form in 3-dimensional Bianchi-Cartan-Vranceanu spaces.
