Semi-invariant submanifolds of a Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold.
A Riemannian manifold is said to be semisymmetric if . A submanifold of Euclidean space which satisfies is called semiparallel. It is known that semiparallel submanifolds are intrinsically semisymmetric. But can every semisymmetric manifold be immersed isometrically as a semiparallel submanifold? This problem has been solved up to now only for the dimension 2, when the answer is affirmative for the positive Gaussian curvature. Among semisymmetric manifolds a special role is played by the foliated...
We determine explicitly the local structure of a semi-symmetric -space.
We characterize curvature-adapted real hypersurfaces in nonflat quaternionic space forms in terms of their shape operators and structure tensors.
We determine in the form of curves corresponding to strictly monotone functions as well as the components of affine connections for which any image of under a compact-free group of affinities containing the translation group is a geodesic with respect to . Special attention is paid to the case that contains many dilatations or that is a curve in . If is a curve in and is the translation group then we calculate not only the components of the curvature and the Weyl tensor but...
We study Legendre and slant curves for Bianchi-Cartan-Vranceanu metrics. These curves are characterized through the scalar product between the normal at the curve and the vertical vector field and in the helix case they have a proper (non-harmonic) mean curvature vector field. The general expression of the curvature and torsion of these curves and the associated Lancret invariant (for the slant case) are computed as well as the corresponding variant for some particular cases. The slant (particularly...
