In the present paper, we study generalized Ricci solitons on N(κ)-contact metric manifolds, in particular, we consider when the potential vector field is the concircular vector field. We also consider generalized gradient Ricci solitons, and verify our results with an example.

Tinted with ontological concern, Ted Hughes passes through an existential climate, eventually confirms death( or nothingness) as the new foundation of his poetry, and explores the various paradoxical effects of nothingness. Nihilism, fraught with rather negative and traumatic themes such as death, melancholy, and despair can, however, generate being (even in multiple modes), animalistic vitality, and insubstantial specters. Among these new functions of nothingness animality and spectrality are the most notable in Hughes's poetry. A considerable number of animals and bioorganisms that Hughes introduces exhibit the enormous energy derived from the dignity of death, from subversive challenges against the established hierarchy, and from new and dynamic multifaceted sources of nothingness. In other words, Hughes's animals, yield surplus power beyond themselves, as if they are demi-gods; in short, they feature the sublime as unidentified terrifying effects of nothingness. In a sense, animality means allowing some level of violence without legal sanction. Hughes inaugurates this kind of all bigotry-eradicating violence and attempts to subvert higher beings such as humans and gods, and existing doctrines: thrushes rise up against the animal and human worlds; a rush of ghostly crabs at night press through the human world. Hughes also resists the highest being, God, employing the technique of rewriting God's theology. Dirty, anomalous crows attack, subvert, and dismember the delicate, indurate, and thorough system of logos. Hughes, of course, does not place the animals merely in lofty regard, aware of the ulterior deprivation of the sublime animality, the trace of existential negativity. Thus, a seemingly omnipotent crow can become a mere beggar guzzling ice cream from the garbage bin on the beach. In addition, the violent and dignified aspects of nothingness can be transformed to reveal the thin and trivial traits as unreliable specters. Dark, heavy, and terrible nullity lessens its own volume and mass, and exposes the airy waves of shadows or specters. However, owing to nullity's untraceable track, the scarcity and unfamiliarity of the phantoms inversely display their foreign gigantic effects such as fantasy and violence.

The notion of quasi-Einstein metric in theoretical physics and in relation with string theory is equivalent to the notion of Ricci soliton in differential geometry. Quasi-Einstein metrics or Ricci solitons serve also as solution to Ricci flow equation, which is an evolution equation for Riemannian metrics on a Riemannian manifold. Quasi-Einstein metrics are subject of great interest in both mathematics and theoretical physics. In this paper the notion of Ricci 𝜌-soliton as a generalization of Ricci soliton is defined. We are motivated by the Ricci-Bourguignon flow to define this concept. We show that if a 3-dimensional almost Kenmotsu Einstein manifold M is a 𝜌-soliton, then M is a Kenmotsu manifold of constant sectional curvature -1 and the 𝜌-soliton is expanding with λ = 2.

The object of the present paper is to study N(k)-quasi-Einstein manifolds. We study an N(k)-quasi-Einstein manifold satisfying the curvature conditions $R({\xi},X){\cdot}Z=0$, $Z(X,{\xi}){\cdot}R=0$, and $P({\xi},X){\cdot}Z=0$, where R, P and Z denote the Riemannian curvature tensor, the projective curvature tensor and Z tensor respectively. Next we prove that the curvature condition $C{\cdot}Z=0$ holds in an N(k)-quasi-Einstein manifold, where C is the conformal curvature tensor. We also study Z-recurrent N(k)-quasi-Einstein manifolds. Finally, we construct an example of an N(k)-quasi-Einstein manifold and mention some physical examples.

A Galerkin meshfree method is presented for analyzing shear deformable cylindrical panels. Based upon the analogy between the cylindrical panel and the curved beam a pure bending mode for cylindrical panel is rationally constructed. The meshfree approximation employed herein is characterized by an enhanced moving least square or reproducing kernel basis function that can exactly represent the pure bending mode and thus meets the requirement of Kirchhoff mode reproducing condition. The variational form is discretized using the efficient stabilized conforming nodal integration with a smoothed nodal gradient based curvature. The resulting meshfree formulation satisfies the integration constraint for bending exactness. Moreover, it is shown here that the smoothed gradient preserves several desired properties which are valid for the standard gradient obtained by direct differentiation, such as partition of nullity and reproduction of a constant strain field. The efficacy of the proposed approach is demonstrated by two benchmark cylindrical panel examples.

In the present paper is to classify Beta-almost (${\beta}$-almost) Ricci solitons and ${\beta}$-almost gradient Ricci solitons on almost $CoK{\ddot{a}}hler$ manifolds with ${\xi}$ belongs to ($k,{\mu}$)-nullity distribution. In this paper, we prove that such manifolds with V is contact vector field and $Q{\phi}={\phi}Q$ is ${\eta}$-Einstein and it is steady when the potential vector field is pointwise collinear to the reeb vectoer field. Moreover, we prove that a ($k,{\mu}$)-almost $CoK{\ddot{a}}hler$ manifolds admitting ${\beta}$-almost gradient Ricci solitons is isometric to a sphere.

Equilibrium equations of a porous FG plate resting on Winkler-Pasternak foundations with various boundary conditions are derived using a new refined shear deformation theory. Different types of porosity distribution rate are considered. Governing equations are obtained including the plate-foundation interaction. This new model meets the nullity of the transverse shear stress at the upper and lower surfaces of the plate. The novel rule of mixture is proposed to describe and approximate material properties of the FG plates with different distribution case of porosity. The validity of this theory is studied by comparing some of the present results with other higher-order theories reported in the literature. Effects of variation of porosity distribution rate, boundary conditions, foundation parameter, power law index, plate aspect ratio, side-to-thickness ratio on the deflections and stresses are all discussed.

The main intention of the current paper is to characterize certain properties of *-conformal Ricci solitons on non-coKähler (𝜅, 𝜇)-almost coKähler manifolds. At first, we find that there does not exist *-conformal Ricci soliton if the potential vector field is the Reeb vector field θ. We also prove that the non-coKähler (𝜅, 𝜇)-almost coKähler manifolds admit *-conformal Ricci solitons if the potential vector field is the infinitesimal contact transformation. It is also studied that there does not exist *-conformal gradient Ricci solitons on the said manifolds. An example has been constructed to verify the obtained results.

In this paper, we study almost cosymplectic manifolds with nullity distributions admitting Riemann solitons and gradient almost Riemann solitons. First, we consider Riemann soliton on (κ, µ)-almost cosymplectic manifold M with κ < 0 and we show that the soliton is expanding with ${\lambda}{\frac{\kappa}{2n-1}}(4n - 1)$ and M is locally isometric to the Lie group G_ρ. Finally, we prove the non-existence of gradient almost Riemann soliton on a (κ, µ)-almost cosymplectic manifold of dimension greater than 3 with κ < 0.
