The object of the present paper is to study weakly Z symmetric spacetimes $(WZS)_4$. At first we prove that a weakly Z symmetric spacetime is a quasi-Einstein spacetime and hence a perfect fluid spacetime. Next, we consider conformally flat $(WZS)_4$ spacetimes and prove that such a spacetime is infinitesimally spatially isotropic relative to the unit timelike vector field ${\rho}$. We also study $(WZS)_4$ spacetimes with divergence free conformal curvature tensor. Moreover, we characterize dust fluid and viscous fluid $(WZS)_4$ spacetimes. Finally, we construct an example of a $(WZS)_4$ spacetime.

In this paper, we study the geometry of half lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite Sasakian manifold. There are several different types of half lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite Sasakian manifold according to the form of its structure vector field. We study two types of them here: tangential and ascreen half lightlike submanifolds.

We study half lightlike submanifold M of an indefinite trans-Sasakian manifold such that its structure vector field is tangent to M. First we study the general theory for such half lightlike submanifolds. Next we prove some characterization theorems for half lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite generalized Sasakian space form.

We study the geometry of lightlike hypersurfaces M of an inde nite cosymplectic manifold $\bar{M}$ such that either (1) the characterist vector field $\zeta$ of $\bar{M}$ belongs to the screen distribution S(TM) of M or (2) $\zeta$ belongs to the orthogonal complement $S(TM)^{\perp}$ of S(TM) in $T\bar{M}$.

We study the geometry of lightlike submanifolds of a semi-Riemannian manifold. The purpose of this paper is to prove two singular theorems for irrotational lightlike submanifolds M of a semi-Riemannian space form $\bar{M}(c)$ admitting a semi-symmetric non-metric connection such that the structure vector field of $\bar{M}(c)$ is tangent to M.

In this paper, we firstly define the Ricci mean value along the gradient vector field of the Ricci potential function and show that it is non-negative on a compact Ricci soliton. Furthermore a Ricci soliton is Einstein if and only if its Ricci mean value is vanishing. Finally, we obtain a compact Ricci soliton $(M^n,g)(n{\geq}3)$ is Einstein if its Weyl curvature tensor and the Kulkarni-Nomizu product of Ricci curvature are orthogonal.

We introduce in this paper a new method for smooth foldover-free warping of images, based on the vector field deformation technique proposed by Von Funck et al. It allows users to specify the constraints in two different ways: positional constraints to constrain the position of a point in the image and gradient constraints to constrain the orientation and scaling of some parts of the image. From the user-specified constraints, it computes in the image domain a C1-continuous velocity vector field, along which each pixel progressively moves from its original position to the target. The target positions of the pixels are obtained by solving a set of partial derivative equations with the 4th order Runge-Kutta method. We show how our method can be useful for texture mapping with hard constraints. We start with an unconstrained planar embedding of a target mesh using a previously known method (Least Squares Conformal Map). Then, in order to obtain a texture map that satisfies the given constraints, we use the proposed warping method to align the features of the texture image with those on the unconstrained embedding. Compared to previous work, our method generates a smoother texture mapping, offers higher level of control for defining the constraints, and is simpler to implement.

In this paper, we study the geometry of half lightlike submanifolds M of a semi-Riemannian manifold $\tilde{M}$ with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection subject to the conditions; (1) the characteristic vector field of $\tilde{M}$ is tangent to M, the screen distribution on M is totally umbilical in M and the co-screen distribution on M is conformal Killing, or (2) the screen distribution is integrable and the local lightlike second fundamental form of M is parallel.

Ferroelectric $Pb(Zr_{1-x}Ti_x)O_3$ (PZT) films were deposited on (001) MgO single crystals using sol-gel method. Structural properties and surface morphologies of PZT films were investigated using an X-ray diffractometer and a scanning electron microscopy, respectively. The dielectric properties of PZT films were investigated with the dc bias field using interdigitated capacitors (IDC) which were fabricated on PZT films using a thick metal layer by photolithography and dry etching process. The small signal dielectric properties of PZT films were calculated by a modified conformal mapping method with low and high frequency data, such as capacitance measured by an impedance gain/phase analyzer at 100 kHz and reflection coefficient (S-parameter) measured by a HP 8510C vector network analyzer at 1 -20 GHz. The IDC on PZT films exhibited about 67% of capacitance change with an electric field of 135 kV/cm at 10 GHz. These PZT thin films can be applied to tunable microwave devices such as phase shifters, tunable resonators and tunable filters.
