  • Jin [7] defined a new connection on semi-Riemannian manifolds, which is a non-symmetric and non-metric connection. He said that this connection is an (ℓ, m)-type connection. Jin also studied lightlike hypersurfaces of an indefinite trans-Sasakian manifold with an (ℓ, m)-type connection in [7]. We study further the geometry of this subject. In this paper, we study generic lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite trans-Sasakian manifold endowed with an (ℓ, m)-type connection.

  • In this paper, we define a new tensor field on a Sasqakian manifold, which is constructed from the conformal curvature tensor field by using the Boothby-Wang's fibration ([3]), and study some properties of this new tensor field. In Section 2, we recall definitions and fundamental properties of Sasakian manifold and .phi.-holomorphic sectional curvature. In Section 3, we define contact conformal curvature tensor field on a Sasakian manifold and prove that it is invariant under D-homothetic deformation due to S. Tanno([13]). In Section 4, we study Sasakian manifolds with vanishing contact conformal curvature tensor field, and the last Section 5 is devoted to studying some properties of fibred Riemannian spaces with Sasakian structure of vanishing contact conformal curvature tensor field.

  • Jin studied lightlike hypersurfaces of an indefinite Kaehler manifold [6, 8] or indefinite trans-Sasakian manifold [7] with a quarter-symmetric metric connection. Jin also studied generic lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite trans-Sasakian manifold with a quarter-symmetric metric connection [10]. We study generic lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite Kaehler manifold with a quarter-symmetric metric connection.

  • 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.

  • We study an (n+3)($n\;{\geq}\;7-dimensional$ real submanifold of a (4m+3)-unit sphere $S^{4m+3}$ with Sasakian 3-structure induced from the canonical quaternionic $K\"{a}hler$ structure of quaternionic (m+1)-number space $Q^{m+1}$, and especially determine contact three CR-submanifolds with (p-1) contact three CR-dimension under the equality conditions given in (4.1), where p = 4m - n denotes the codimension of the submanifold. Also we provide necessary conditions concerning sectional curvature in order that a compact contact three CR-submanifold of (p-1) contact three CR-dimension in $S^{4m+3}$ is the model space $S^{4n_1+3}(r_1){\times}S^{4n_2+3}(r_2)$ for some portion $(n_1,\;n_2)$ of (n-3)/4 and some $r_1,\;r_2$ with $r^{2}_{1}+r^{2}_{2}=1$.

  • As a natural generalization of a Sasakian space form, we define a contact strongly pseudo-convex CR-space form (of constant pseudo-holomorphic sectional curvature) by using the Tanaka-Webster connection, which is a canonical affine connection on a contact strongly pseudo-convex CR-manifold. In particular, we classify a contact strongly pseudo-convex CR-space form $(M,\;\eta,\;\varphi)$ with the pseudo-parallel structure operator $h(=1/2L\xi\varphi)$, and then we obtain the nice form of their curvature tensors in proving Schurtype theorem, where $L\xi$ denote the Lie derivative in the characteristic direction $\xi$.
