  • In this paper we study non-simply connected Riemannian manifolds of constant positive curvature which have an orbit of codimension one under the action of a connected closed Lie subgroup of isometries. When the action is reducible we characterize the orbits explicitly. We also prove that in some cases the manifold is homogeneous.

  • The aim of this article is to examine some types of slant submanifolds of bronze Riemannian manifolds. We introduce hemi-slant submanifolds of a bronze Riemannian manifold. We obtain integrability conditions for the distribution involved in quasi hemi-slant submanifold of a bronze Riemannian manifold. Also, we give some examples about this type submanifolds.

  • This paper deals with the Paneitz-Branson operator in compact Riemannian manifolds with negative Yamabe invariant. We start off by providing a new criterion for the positivity of the Paneitz-Branson operator when the Yamabe invariant of the manifold is negative. Another result stated in this paper is about the existence of a metric on a manifold of dimension 5 such that the Paneitz-Branson operator has multiple negative eigenvalues. Finally, we provide new inequalities related to the upper bound of the mean value of the Q-curvature.

  • The various deformation spaces associated with maximal geometric structures on closed oriented 3-manifolds was studied in [2], leaving out the geometry of $\mathbb{R}^3$. In this paper, we study the Weil spaces and Teichm$\ddot{u}$ller spaces of non-orientable 3-dimensional flat Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we find the Teichm$\ddot{u}$ller spaces are homeomorphic to the Euclidean spaces $\mathbb{R}^4$ or $\mathbb{R}^3$ depending on the holonomy group $\mathbb{Z}_2$ or $\mathbb{Z}_2{\times}\mathbb{Z}_2$ respectively.

  • We investigate when the product of two smooth manifolds admits a weakly Lagrangian embedding. Prove that, if $M^m$ and $N^n$ are smooth manifolds such that M admits a weakly Lagrangian embedding into ${\mathbb}C^m$ whose normal bundle has a nowhere vanishing section and N admits a weakly Lagrangian immersion into ${\mathbb}C^n$, then $M \times N$ admits a weakly Lagrangian embedding into ${\mathbb}C^{m+n}$. As a corollary, we obtain that $S^m {\times} S^n$ admits a weakly Lagrangian embedding into ${\mathbb}C^{m+n}$ if n=1,3. We investigate the problem of whether $S^m{\times}S^n$ in general admits a weakly Lagrangian embedding into ${\mathbb} C^{m+n}$.

  • In this paper we introduce a new tensor named semi-projective curvature tensor which generalizes the projective curvature tensor. First we deduce some basic geometric properties of semi-projective curvature tensor. Then we study pseudo semi-projective symmetric manifolds $(PSPS)_n$ which recover some known results of Chaki [5]. We provide several interesting results. Among others we prove that in a $(PSPS)_n$ if the associated vector field ${\rho}$ is a unit parallel vector field, then either the manifold reduces to a pseudosymmetric manifold or pseudo projective symmetric manifold. Moreover we deal with semi-projectively flat perfect fluid and dust fluid spacetimes respectively. As a consequence we obtain some important theorems. Next we consider the decomposability of $(PSPS)_n$. Finally, we construct a non-trivial Lorentzian metric of $(PSPS)_4$.

  • We study on semiparallel and Weyl semiparallel Sasakian hypersurfaces of Kaehler manifolds. We prove that a (2n + 1)-dimensional Sasakian hypersurface M of a (2n+2)-dimensional Kaehler manifold $\widetilde{M}^{2n+2}$ is semiparallel if and only if it is totally umbilical with unit mean curvature, if dimM = 3 and $\widetilde{M}^4$ is a Calabi-Yau manifold, then $\widetilde{M}$ is flat at each point of M. We also prove that such a hypersurface M is Weyl-semiparallel if and only if it is either an ${\eta}$-Einstein manifold or semiparallel. We also investigate the extended classes of semiparallel and Weyl semiparallel Sasakian hypersurfaces of Kaehler manifolds.

  • In this article, we show that a pseudo-Hermitian magnetic curve in a normal almost contact metric 3-manifold equipped with the canonical affine connection ${\hat{\nabla}}^t$ is a slant helix with pseudo-Hermitian curvature ${\hat{\kappa}}={\mid}q{\mid}\;sin\;{\theta}$ and pseudo-Hermitian torsion ${\hat{\tau}}=q\;cos\;{\theta}$. Moreover, we prove that every pseudo-Hermitian magnetic curve in normal almost contact metric 3-manifolds except quasi-Sasakian 3-manifolds is a slant helix as a Riemannian geometric sense. On the other hand we will show that a pseudo-Hermitian magnetic curve γ in a quasi-Sasakian 3-manifold M is a slant curve with curvature κ = |(t - α) cos θ + q| sin θ and torsion τ = α + {(t - α) cos θ + q} cos θ. These curves are not helices, in general. Note that if the ambient space M is an α-Sasakian 3-manifold, then γ is a slant helix.

  • A general flow distribution model and a simple process of numerical analysis, which can be applied to multi-pass systems with manifolds, are presented. Correlations are derived from the discrete model, and numerically calculated using a modified equal pressure method. The predicted pressure distribution agrees well with the available experimental results of other researchers with the average error less than 2% for 10 branch manifolds, and 4% for 20 branch manifolds. A parametric study is performed to demonstrate the effect on the flow distribution.

  • As warped product manifolds provide an excellent setting to model space time near black holes or bodies with large gravitational field, the study of these manifolds assumes significance in general. B. Y. Chen [4] initiated the study of CR-warped product submanifolds in a Kaehler manifold. He obtained a characterization for a CR-submanifold to be locally a CR-warped product and an estimate for the squared norm of the second fundamental form of CR-warped products in a complex space form (cf [6]). In the present paper, we have obtained a necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of the canonical structures P and F on a CR-submanifold of a nearly Kaehler manifold under which the submanifold reduces to a locally CR-warped product submanifold. Moreover, an estimate for the second fundamental form of the submanifold in a generalized complex space is obtained and thus extend the results of Chen to a more general setting.
