  • We find the expression of the curvature tensor field for a manifold with is endowed with an almost contact structure satisfying the condition (1.7). By using this condition we obtain some properties of the Ricci tensor and scalar curvature (d. Theorem 3.2 and Proposition 3.2).

  • In this paper, we consider the Ricci curvature of a directed graph, based on Lin-Lu-Yau's definition. We give some properties of the Ricci curvature, including conditions for a directed regular graph to be Ricci-flat. Moreover, we calculate the Ricci curvature of the cartesian product of directed graphs.

  • We establish the generalized Myers theorem for Finsler manifolds under integral Ricci curvature bound. More precisely, we show that the forward complete Finsler n-manifold whose part of Ricci curvature less than a positive constant is small in $L^p$-norm (for p > n/2) have bounded diameter and finite fundamental group.

  • For a fixed parametrization of a curve in an orientable two-dimensional Riemannian manifold, we introduce and investigate a new frame and curvature function. Due to the way of defining this new frame as being the time-dependent rotation in the tangent plane of the standard Frenet frame, both these new tools are called flow.
