This paper aims to study the geometrical properties of the conharmonic curvature tensor of a locally conformal almost cosymplectic manifold. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the conharmonic curvature tensor to be flat, the locally conformal almost cosymplectic manifold to be normal and an η-Einstein manifold were determined.

The notion of quasi-Einstein metric in theoretical physics and in relation with string theory is equivalent to the notion of Ricci soliton in differential geometry. Quasi-Einstein metrics or Ricci solitons serve also as solution to Ricci flow equation, which is an evolution equation for Riemannian metrics on a Riemannian manifold. Quasi-Einstein metrics are subject of great interest in both mathematics and theoretical physics. In this paper the notion of Ricci 𝜌-soliton as a generalization of Ricci soliton is defined. We are motivated by the Ricci-Bourguignon flow to define this concept. We show that if a 3-dimensional almost Kenmotsu Einstein manifold M is a 𝜌-soliton, then M is a Kenmotsu manifold of constant sectional curvature -1 and the 𝜌-soliton is expanding with λ = 2.

We consider the *-general critical equation on LP Sasakian manifolds, and show that such a manifold is generalized η-Einstein. After then, we consider LP Sasakian manifolds with *-conformally semisymmetric condition, and show that such manifolds are *-Einstein. Moreover, we show that the *-conformally semisymmetric LP Sasakian manifold is locally isometric to Eⁿ⁺¹(0) × Sⁿ(4).

In this paper we prove that a $\phi$-recurrent (k, $\mu$)-contact metric manifold is an $\eta$-Einstein manifold with constant coefficients. Next, we prove that a three-dimensional locally $\phi$-recurrent (k, $\mu$)-contact metric manifold is the space of constant curvature. The existence of $\phi$-recurrent (k, $\mu$)-manifold is proved by a non-trivial example.

In this paper we study $h$-projectively semisymmetric, ${\phi}$-pro-jectively semisymmetric, $h$-Weyl semisymmetric and ${\phi}$-Weyl semisym- metric non-Sasakian ($k$, ${\mu}$)-contact metric manifolds. In all the cases the manifold becomes an ${\eta}$-Einstein manifold. As a consequence of these results we obtain that if a 3-dimensional non-Sasakian ($k$, ${\mu}$)-contact metric manifold satisfies such curvature conditions, then the manifold reduces to an N($k$)-contact metric manifold.

In the present paper, we aim to study Yamabe soliton and Riemann soliton on Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold. First, we proved, if the scalar curvature of an 𝜂-Einstein Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold M is constant, then either 𝜏 = n(n-1) or, 𝜏 = n-1. Also we constructed an example to justify this. Next, it is proved that, if a three dimensional Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold admits a Yamabe soliton for V is an infinitesimal contact transformation and tr 𝜑 is constant, then the soliton is expanding. Also we proved that, suppose a 3-dimensional Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold admits a Yamabe soliton, if tr 𝜑 is constant and scalar curvature 𝜏 is harmonic (i.e., ∆𝜏 = 0), then the soliton constant λ is always greater than zero with either 𝜏 = 2, or 𝜏 = 6, or λ = 6. Finally, we proved that, if an 𝜂-Einstein Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold M represents a Riemann soliton for the potential vector field V has constant divergence then either, M is of constant curvature 1 or, V is a strict infinitesimal contact transformation.

The aim of the present work is to study the properties of three-dimensional Lorentzian para-Kenmotsu manifolds equipped with a Yamabe soliton. It is proved that every three-dimensional Lorentzian para-Kenmotsu manifold is Ricci semi-symmetric if and only if it is Einstein. Also, if the metric of a three-dimensional semi-symmetric Lorentzian para-Kenmotsu manifold is a Yamabe soliton, then the soliton is shrinking and the flow vector field is Killing. We also study the properties of three-dimensional Ricci symmetric and 𝜂-parallel Lorentzian para-Kenmotsu manifolds with Yamabe solitons. Finally, we give a non-trivial example of three-dimensional Lorentzian para-Kenmotsu manifold.

We analyze the $(LCS)_n$-manifolds endowed with some symmetric properties, focusing on Ricci tensor and the 1-form ${\gamma}$. We study some properties of special Weakly Ricci-Symmetric $(LCS)_n$-manifolds and also shown that Weakly ${\phi}$-Ricci Symmetric $(LCS)_n$-manifold is an ${\eta}$-Einstein manifold.
