The paper deals with lightlike hypersurfaces which are locally symmetric, semi-symmetric and Ricci semi-symmetric in indefinite Kenmotsu manifold having constant $\bar{\phi}$-holomorphic sectional curvature c. We obtain that these hypersurfaces are totally goedesic under certain conditions. The non-existence condition of locally symmetric lightlike hyper-surfaces are given. Some Theorems of specific lightlike hypersurfaces are established. We prove, under a certain condition, that in lightlike hyper-surfaces of an indefinite Kenmotsu space form, tangent to the structure vector field, the parallel, semi-parallel, local symmetry, semi-symmetry and Ricci semi-symmetry notions are equivalent.

We study pseudo symmetric (briefly $(PS)_n$) and pseudo Ricci symmetric (briefly $(PRS)_n$) warped product manifolds $M{\times}_FN$. If M is $(PS)_n$, then we give a condition on the warping function that M is a pseudosymmetric space and N is a space of constant curvature. If M is $(PRS)_n$, then we show that (i) N is Ricci symmetric and (ii) M is $(PRS)_n$ if and only if the tensor T defined by (2.6) satisfies a certain condition.

Benign symmetric lipomatosis was initially described in 1846 by Sir Benjamin Brodie. In 1888, Otto Madelung presented 33 cases of benign symmetric lipomatosis and described the classic“horse collar”cervical distribution of the lipomatous tissue. Launois and Bensaude described benign symmetric lipomatosis as a distint syndrome characterized by a diffuse, symmetric, fatty accumulation in the cervical region. This disease is rare condition affecting mostly middle aged alcoholic men and associated with many systemic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, hyperuricemia, renal tubular acidosis, liver enzyme abnormality etc. The condition does not spontaneously involute and surgical excision is the only proven method of treatment, and recurrence is frequent. We experienced six patients of benign symmetric lipomatosis who underwent surgical excision via collar incision which afford wide exposure of the entire cervical area. We report them with the review of literature.

In general, when geometry and current distribution have a periodic or symmetric property, the analysis of a part model is sufficient to represent that of a whole model by using the periodic boundary condition. It is impossible, however, to apply the periodic boundary condition when the current distribution is not symmetric even if the geometry of the model is symmetric. In this paper, a novel technique to resolve this problem is proposed. Even when the geometry is symmetric and the current distribution is not, the proposed method enables that calculation time for a whole model is reduced to that for a part model. The proposed method is applied to a deflection yoke (DY), and validness and efficiency of the method are verified.

For the general loading condition and boundary condition, it is very difficult to obtain closed-form solutions for buckling loads and natural frequencies of thin-walled structures because its behaviour is very complex due to the coupling effect of bending and torsional behaviour. Consequently most of previous finite element formulations introduced approximate displacement fields using shape functions as Hermitian polynomials, isoparametric interpoation function, and so on. The purpose of this study is to calculate the exact displacement field of a thin-walled straight beam element with the non-symmetric cross section and present a consistent derivation of the exact dynamic stiffness matrix. An exact dynamic element stiffness matrix is established from Vlasov's coupled differential equations for a uniform beam element of non-symmetric thin-walled cross section. This numerical technique is accomplished via a generalized linear eigenvalue problem by introducing 14 displacement parameters and a system of linear algebraic equations with complex matrices. The natural frequencies are evaluated for the non-symmetric thin-walled straight beam structure, and the results are compared with available solutions in order to verify validity and accuracy of the proposed procedures.

This paper is devoted to study Ricci semi-symmetric lightlike hypersurfaces of an indefinite cosymplectic space form with structure vector field tangent to hypersurface. The condition for Ricci tensor of lightlike hypersurface of indefinite cosymplectic space form to be semi-symmetric and parallel have been obtained. An example of non-totally geodesic Ricci semi-symmetric lightlike hypersurface in $R^7_2$ have been given.

We consider pseudo-symmetric and Ricci generalized pseudo-symmetric N(${\kappa}$) contact metric manifolds. We also consider N(${\kappa}$)-contact metric manifolds satisfying the condition $S{\cdot}R$ = 0 where R and S denote the curvature tensor and the Ricci tensor respectively. Finally we give some examples.

A symmetric union is a diagram of a knot, obtained from diagrams of a knot in the 3-space and its mirror image, which are symmetric with respect to an axis in the 2-plane, by connecting them with 2-tangles with twists along the axis and 2-tangles with no twists. This paper presents an invariant of knots with symmetric union presentations, which is called the minimal twisting number, and the minimal twisting number of $10_{42}$ is shown to be two. This paper also presents a sufficient condition for non-amphicheirality of a knot with a certain symmetric union presentation.

In this paper, we study lightlike submanifolds of a semi-Riemannian manifold admitting a semi-symmetric non-metric connection. We obtain a necessary and a sufficient condition for integrability of the screen distribution. Then we give the conditions under which the Ricci tensor of a lightlike submanifold with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection is symmetric. Finally, we show that the Ricci tensor of a lightlike submanifold of semi-Riemannian space form is not parallel with respect to the semi-symmetric non-metric connection.
