The object of the present paper is to study some curvature properties of almost Kenmotsu manifolds with conformal Reeb foliation. Among others it is proved that an almost Kenmotsu manifold with conformal Reeb foliation is Ricci semisymmetric if and only if it is an Einstein manifold. Finally, we study Yamabe soliton in this manifold.

In this paper, we study the 𝜂-parallelism of the Ricci operator of almost Kenmotsu 3-manifolds. First, we prove that an almost Kenmotsu 3-manifold M satisfying ∇_𝜉h = -2𝛼h𝜑 for some constant 𝛼 has dominantly 𝜂-parallel Ricci operator if and only if it is locally symmetric. Next, we show that if M is an H-almost Kenmotsu 3-manifold satisfying ∇_𝜉h = -2𝛼h𝜑 for a constant 𝛼, then M is a Kenmotsu 3-manifold or it is locally isomorphic to certain non-unimodular Lie group equipped with a left invariant almost Kenmotsu structure. The dominantly 𝜂-parallelism of the Ricci operator is equivalent to the local symmetry on homogeneous almost Kenmotsu 3-manifolds.

The goal of this paper is to characterize a class of almost Kenmotsu manifolds admitting *-conformal Ricci solitons. It is shown that if a (2n + 1)-dimensional (k, µ)'-almost Kenmotsu manifold M admits *-conformal Ricci soliton, then the manifold M is *-Ricci flat and locally isometric to ℍⁿ⁺¹(-4) × ℝⁿ. The result is also verified by an example.

The present article contains the study of D-homothetically deformed f-Kenmotsu manifolds. Some fundamental results on the deformed spaces have been deduced. Some basic properties of the Riemannian metric as an inner product on both the original and deformed spaces have been established. Finally, applying the obtained results, soliton functions, Ricci curvatures and scalar curvatures of almost Riemann solitons with several kinds of potential vector fields on the deformed spaces have been characterized.

The objective of this paper is to introduce and study Einstein-like para-Kenmotsu manifolds. For a para-Kenmotsu manifold to be Einstein-like, a necessary and sufficient condition in terms of its curvature tensor is obtained. We also obtain the scalar curvature of an Einstein-like para-Kenmotsu manifold. A necessary and sufficient condition for an almost para-contact metric hypersurface of a locally product Riemannian manifold to be para-Kenmotsu is derived and it is shown that the para-Kenmotsu hypersurface of a locally product Riemannian manifold of almost constant curvature is always Einstein.

The aim of this paper is to investigate locally ${\phi}-conformally$ symmetric almost Kenmotsu manifolds with its characteristic vector field ${\xi}$ belonging to some nullity distributions. Also, we give an example of a 5-dimensional almost Kenmotsu manifold such that ${\xi}$ belongs to the $(k,\;{\mu})^{\prime}$-nullity distribution and $h^{\prime}{\neq}0$.

In the present paper, we characterize, for a class of almost Kenmotsu manifolds, those that admit quasi Yamabe solitons. We show that if a (k, 𝜇)'-almost Kenmotsu manifold admits a quasi Yamabe soliton (g, V, 𝜆, 𝛼) where V is pointwise collinear with 𝜉, then (1) V is a constant multiple of 𝜉, (2) V is a strict infinitesimal contact transformation, and (3) (£_Vh')X = 0 holds for any vector field X. We present an illustrative example to support the result.
