The goal of this paper is to analyze the generalized m-quasi-Einstein structure in the context of almost Kenmotsu manifolds. Firstly we showed that a complete Kenmotsu manifold admitting a generalized m-quasi-Einstein structure (g, f, m, λ) is locally isometric to a hyperbolic space ℍ²ⁿ⁺¹(-1) or a warped product ${\tilde{M}}{\times}{_{\gamma}{\mathbb{R}}$ under certain conditions. Next, we proved that a (κ, µ)'-almost Kenmotsu manifold with h' ≠ 0 admitting a closed generalized m-quasi-Einstein metric is locally isometric to some warped product spaces. Finally, a generalized m-quasi-Einstein metric (g, f, m, λ) in almost Kenmotsu 3-H-manifold is considered and proved that either it is locally isometric to the hyperbolic space ℍ³(-1) or the Riemannian product ℍ²(-4) × ℝ.

In this paper, we prove that the Ricci tensor of a three-dimensional almost Kenmotsu manifold satisfying ${\nabla}_{\xi}h=0$, $h{\neq}0$, is ${\eta}$-parallel if and only if the manifold is locally isometric to either the Riemannian product $\mathbb{H}^2(-4){\times}\mathbb{R}$ or a non-unimodular Lie group equipped with a left invariant non-Kenmotsu almost Kenmotsu structure.

The present paper mainly treats with almost f-cosymplectic manifolds. This notion contains almost cosymplectic and almost Kenmotsu manifolds. Almost cosymplectic manifolds introduced in ［1］ have been studied by many schalors, say ［2］, ［3］, ［4］, and almost Kenmotsu manifolds introduced in ［5］ have been studied in ［6］, ［7］. The present paper studies some geometrical and topological properties of the canonical foliation defined by the contact distribution of an almost f-cosymplectic manifold. The purpose of the present paper is to extend the results obtained in ［8］, ［9］.

Let ${\mathcal{C}}$, ${\mathcal{M}}$, ${\mathcal{L}}$ be concircular curvature tensor, M-projective curvature tensor and conharmonic curvature tensor, respectively. We obtain that if a non-Kenmotsu ($k,{\mu}$)'-almost Kenmotsu manifold satisfies ${\mathcal{C}}{\cdot}{\mathcal{S}}=0$, ${\mathcal{R}}{\cdot}{\mathcal{M}}=0$ or ${\mathcal{R}}{\cdot}{\mathcal{L}}=0$, then it is locally isometric to the Riemannian product ${\mathds{H}}^{n+1}(-4){\times}{\mathds{R}}^n$.

Let ($M^{2n+1}$, ${\phi}$, ${\xi}$, ${\eta}$, g) be a (k, ${\mu}$)'-almost Kenmotsu manifold with k < -1 which admits a gradient Ricci almost soliton (g, f, ${\lambda}$), where ${\lambda}$ is the soliton function and f is the potential function. In this paper, it is proved that ${\lambda}$ is a constant and this implies that $M^{2n+1}$ is locally isometric to a rigid gradient Ricci soliton ${\mathbb{H}}^{n+1}(-4){\times}{\mathbb{R}}^n$, and the soliton is expanding with ${\lambda}=-4n$. Moreover, if a three dimensional Kenmotsu manifold admits a gradient Ricci almost soliton, then either it is of constant sectional curvature -1 or the potential vector field is pointwise colinear with the Reeb vector field.

Let M be an almost Kenmotsu manifold of dimension 2n + 1 having non-vanishing ��-sectional curvature such that trℓ > -2n - 2. We prove that any second order parallel tensor on M is a constant multiple of the associated metric tensor and obtained some consequences of this. Vector fields keeping curvature tensor invariant are characterized on M.
