For a manifold with a linear connection, we find an obstruction class to have a volume form parallel with respect to its connection which corresponds to the Chern-Simons secondary invariant in the frame bundle of the manifold.

In this paper, we obtain the Ricci curvature and the scalar curvature on SU(3) with some left invariant Riemannian metric. And then we get a necessary and sufficient condition for the scalar curvature (resp. the Ricci curvature) on the Riemannian manifold SU(3) to be positive.

Inspired by the problem of finding hyperelastic curves in a Riemannian manifold, we present a study on the variational problem of a hyperelastic curve in Lie group. In a Riemannian manifold, we reorganize the characterization of the hyperelastic curve with appropriate constraints. By using this equilibrium equation, we derive an Euler-Lagrange equation for the hyperelastic energy functional defined in a Lie group G equipped with bi-invariant Riemannian metric. Then, we give a solution of this equation for a null hyperelastic Lie quadratic when Lie group G is SO(3).

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.

We describe a construction which takes as an input a left order of the fundamental group of a manifold, and outputs a (singular) foliation of this manifold which is analogous to a taut foliation. We investigate this construction in detail in dimension 2, and exhibit connections to various problems in dimension 3.

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.

We characterize proper biharmonic anti-invariant surfaces in 3-dimensional generalized (${\kappa}$, ${\mu}$)-manifolds with constant mean curvature by means of the scalar curvature of the ambient space and the mean curvature. In addition, we give a method for constructing infinity many examples of proper biharmonic submanifolds in a certain 3-dimensional generalized (${\kappa}$, ${\mu}$)-manifold. Moreover, we determine 3-dimensional generalized (${\kappa}$, ${\mu}$)-manifolds which admit a certain kind of proper biharmonic foliation.

In this paper, we decompose the curvature tensor (field) on the homogeneous Riemannian manifold SU(3)=T (k, l) with an arbitrarily given SU(3)-invariant Riemannian metric into three curvature-like tensor fields, and investigate geometric properties.

We define a kind of sectional curvature and 𝛿-invariants for statistical manifolds. For statistical submanifolds the sum of the squared mean curvature and the squared dual mean curvature is bounded below by using the 𝛿-invariant. This inequality can be considered as a generalization of the so-called Chen inequality for Riemannian submanifolds.
