An almost contact metric manifold is called a quasi contact metric manifold if the corresponding almost Hermitian cone is a quasi Kähler manifold, which was introduced by Y. Tashiro [9] as a contact O*-manifold. In this paper, we show that a quasi contact metric manifold with Killing characteristic vector field is a K-contact manifold. This provides an extension of the definition of K-contact manifold.

As a natural generalization of the contact metric manifolds, Kim, Park and Sekigawa discussed quasi contact metric manifolds based on the geometry of the corresponding quasi $K{\ddot{a}}hler$ cones. In this paper, we show that a quasi contact metric manifold is a contact manifold.

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.

The goal of this paper is the introduction of hyper generalized 𝜙-recurrent (k, 𝜇)-contact metric manifolds and of quasi generalized 𝜙-recurrent (k, 𝜇)-contact metric manifolds, and the investigation of their properties. Their existence is guaranteed by examples.

The aim of the present paper is to study some solitons on three dimensional generalized (𝜅, 𝜇)-contact metric manifolds. We study gradient Yamabe solitons on three dimensional generalized (𝜅, 𝜇)-contact metric manifolds. It is proved that if the metric of a three dimensional generalized (𝜅, 𝜇)-contact metric manifold is gradient Einstein soliton then ${\mu}={\frac{2{\kappa}}{{\kappa}-2}}$. It is shown that if the metric of a three dimensional generalized (𝜅, 𝜇)-contact metric manifold is closed m-quasi Einstein metric then ${\kappa}={\frac{\lambda}{m+2}}$ and 𝜇 = 0. We also study conformal gradient Ricci solitons on three dimensional generalized (𝜅, 𝜇)-contact metric manifolds.

In this article, we show that a pseudo-Hermitian magnetic curve in a normal almost contact metric 3-manifold equipped with the canonical affine connection ${\hat{\nabla}}^t$ is a slant helix with pseudo-Hermitian curvature ${\hat{\kappa}}={\mid}q{\mid}\;sin\;{\theta}$ and pseudo-Hermitian torsion ${\hat{\tau}}=q\;cos\;{\theta}$. Moreover, we prove that every pseudo-Hermitian magnetic curve in normal almost contact metric 3-manifolds except quasi-Sasakian 3-manifolds is a slant helix as a Riemannian geometric sense. On the other hand we will show that a pseudo-Hermitian magnetic curve γ in a quasi-Sasakian 3-manifold M is a slant curve with curvature κ = |(t - α) cos θ + q| sin θ and torsion τ = α + {(t - α) cos θ + q} cos θ. These curves are not helices, in general. Note that if the ambient space M is an α-Sasakian 3-manifold, then γ is a slant helix.

The object of the present paper is to introduce a new curvature tensor, named generalized quasi-conformal curvature tensor which bridges conformal curvature tensor, concircular curvature tensor, projective curvature tensor and conharmonic curvature tensor. Flatness and symmetric properties of generalized quasi-conformal curvature tensor are studied in the frame of (k, ${\mu}$)-contact metric manifolds.
