We prove that a (k, $\mu$)-manifold with vanishing E­Bochner curvature tensor is a Sasakian manifold. Several interesting corollaries of this result are drawn. Non-Sasakian (k, $\mu$)­manifolds with C-Bochner curvature tensor B satisfying B $(\xi,\;X)\;\cdot$ S = 0, where S is the Ricci tensor, are classified. N(K)-contact metric manifolds $M^{2n+1}$, satisfying B $(\xi,\;X)\;\cdot$ R = 0 or B $(\xi,\;X)\;\cdot$ B = 0 are classified and studied.

In the present paper, we prove that if there exists a second order parallel tensor on an almost Kenmotsu manifold with generalized $(k,{\mu})^{\prime}$-nullity distribution and $h^{\prime}{\neq}0$, then either the manifold is isometric to $H^{n+1}(-4){\times}{\mathbb{R}}^n$, or, the second order parallel tensor is a constant multiple of the associated metric tensor of $M^{2n+1}$ under certain restriction on k, ${\mu}$. Besides this, we study Ricci soliton on an almost Kenmotsu manifold with generalized $(k,{\mu})^{\prime}$-nullity distribution. Finally, we characterize such a manifold admitting generalized Ricci soliton.

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.

On a generalized Riemannian manifold $X_n$, we may impose a particular geometric structure by the basic tensor field $g_{\lambda\mu}$ by means of a particular connection ${\Gamma}{_\lambda}{^\nu}_{\mu}$. For example, Einstein's manifold $X_n$ is based on the Einstein's connection defined by the Einstein's equations. Many recurrent connections have been studied by many geometers, such as Datta and Singel, M. Matsumoto, and E.M. Patterson. The purpose of the present paper is to study some relations between a generalized semisymmetric $g$-recurrent manifold $GSX_n$ and its submanifold. All considerations in this present paper deal with the general case $n{\geq}2$ and all possible classes.

In this article we study almost contact manifolds admitting weakly Einstein metrics. We first prove that if a (2n + 1)-dimensional Sasakian manifold admits a weakly Einstein metric, then its scalar curvature s satisfies -6 ⩽ s ⩽ 6 for n = 1 and -2n(2n + 1) ${\frac{4n^2-4n+3}{4n^2-4n-1}}$ ⩽ s ⩽ 2n(2n + 1) for n ⩾ 2. Secondly, for a (2n + 1)-dimensional weakly Einstein contact metric (κ, μ)-manifold with κ < 1, we prove that it is flat or is locally isomorphic to the Lie group SU(2), SL(2), or E(1, 1) for n = 1 and that for n ⩾ 2 there are no weakly Einstein metrics on contact metric (κ, μ)-manifolds with 0 < κ < 1. For κ < 0, we get a classification of weakly Einstein contact metric (κ, μ)-manifolds. Finally, it is proved that a weakly Einstein almost cosymplectic (κ, μ)-manifold with κ < 0 is locally isomorphic to a solvable non-nilpotent Lie group.

In the present paper we prove that in an almost Kenmotsu manifold with generalized $(k,{\mu})^{\prime}-nullity$ distribution the three conditions: (i) the Ricci tensor of $M^{2n+1}$ is of Codazzi type, (ii) the manifold $M^{2n+1}$ satisfies div C = 0, (iii) the manifold $M^{2n+1}$ is locally isometric to $H^{n+1}(-4){\times}R^n$, are equivalent. Also we prove that if the manifold satisfies the cyclic parallel Ricci tensor, then the manifold is locally isometric to $H^{n+1}(-4){\times}\mathbb{R}^n$.

In this paper we study $h$-projectively semisymmetric, ${\phi}$-pro-jectively semisymmetric, $h$-Weyl semisymmetric and ${\phi}$-Weyl semisym- metric non-Sasakian ($k$, ${\mu}$)-contact metric manifolds. In all the cases the manifold becomes an ${\eta}$-Einstein manifold. As a consequence of these results we obtain that if a 3-dimensional non-Sasakian ($k$, ${\mu}$)-contact metric manifold satisfies such curvature conditions, then the manifold reduces to an N($k$)-contact metric manifold.

The manifold $g-ESX_n$ is a generalized n-dimensional Riemannian manifold on which the differential geometric structure is imposed by the unified field tensor $g_{{\lambda}{\mu}}$ through the ES-connection which is both Einstein and semi-symmetric. In this paper, we investigate the properties of the vectors $X_{\lambda}$, $S_{\lambda}$ and $U_{\lambda}$ of $g-ESX_n$, with main emphasis on the derivation of several useful generalized identities involving it.

Let M be a complete Riemannian manifold and let N be a Riemannian manifold of non-positive sectional curvature. Assume that $Ric^M{\geq}-\frac{4(p-1)}{p^2}{\mu}_0$ at all $x{\in}M$ and Vol(M) is infinite, where ${\mu}_0$ > 0 is the infimum of the spectrum of the Laplacian acting on $L^2$-functions on M. Then any p-harmonic map ${\phi}:M{\rightarrow}N$ of finite p-energy is constant Also, we study Liouville type theorem for p-harmonic morphism.

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.
