  • It is well-known that the most interesting non-integrable almost Hermitian manifold are the nearly Kaehlerian manifolds ([2] and [3]), and that there exists a complex but not a Kaehlerian structure on Riemannian product manifolds of two normal contact manifolds [4]. The purpose of the present paper is to study nearly Kaehlerian product manifolds of two almost contact metric manifolds and investigate the geometrical structures of these manifolds. Unless otherwise stated, we shall always assume that manifolds and quantities are differentiable of class $C^{\infty}$. In Paragraph 1, we give brief discussions of almost contact metric manifolds and their Riemannian product manifolds. In paragraph 2, we investigate the perfect conditions for Riemannian product manifolds of two almost contact metric manifolds to be nearly Kaehlerian and the non-existence of a nearly Kaehlerian product manifold of contact metric manifolds. Paragraph 3 will be devoted to a proof of the following; A conformally flat compact nearly Kaehlerian product manifold of two almost contact metric manifolds is isomatric to a Riemannian product manifold of a complex projective space and a flat Kaehlerian manifold..

  • This study presents an 𝛼-Sasakian structure on the product manifold M1 × 𝛽(I), where M1 is a Kähler manifold with an exact 1-form, and 𝛽(I) is an open curve. It then defines a new type warped product metric to study the warped product of almost Hermitian manifolds with almost contact metric manifolds, contact metric manifolds, and K-contact manifolds.

  • The aim of this paper is to characterize K-contact and Sasakian manifolds whose metrics are generalized quasi-Einstein metric. It is proven that if the metric of a K-contact manifold is generalized quasi-Einstein metric, then the manifold is of constant scalar curvature and in the case of a Sasakian manifold the metric becomes Einstein under certain restriction on the potential function. Several corollaries have been provided. Finally, we consider Sasakian 3-manifold whose metric is generalized quasi-Einstein metric.

  • Alfred Gray introduced in [8] three curvature identities for the class of almost Hermitian manifolds. Using the warped product construction and the Boothby-Wang fibration we will give an equivalent of these identities for the class of almost contact metric manifolds.

  • Consider a gradient Einstein-type metric in the setting of K-contact manifolds and (κ, µ)-contact manifolds. First, it is proved that, if a complete K-contact manifold admits a gradient Einstein-type metric, then M is compact, Einstein, Sasakian and isometric to the unit sphere 𝕊2n+1. Next, it is proved that, if a non-Sasakian (κ, µ)-contact manifolds admits a gradient Einstein-type metric, then it is flat in dimension 3, and for higher dimension, M is locally isometric to the product of a Euclidean space 𝔼n+1 and a sphere 𝕊n(4) of constant curvature +4.

  • The purpose of the present paper is to introduce a new class of almost para-contact metric manifolds namely, Golden para-contact metric manifolds. Then, we are particularly interested in a more special type called Golden para-Sasakian manifolds, where we will study their fundamental properties and we present many examples which justify their study.
