The main objective of the paper is to provide a full classification of quasi-conformally recurrent Riemannian manifolds with harmonic quasi-conformal curvature tensor. Among others it is shown that a quasi-conformally recurrent manifold with harmonic quasi-conformal curvature tensor is any one of the following: (i) quasi-conformally symmetric, (ii) conformally flat, (iii) manifold of constant curvature, (iv) vanishing scalar curvature, (v) Ricci recurrent.

The object of the present paper is to study conformally at almost pseudo Ricci symmetric manifolds. The existence of a conformally at almost pseudo Ricci symmetric manifold with non-zero and non-constant scalar curvature is shown by a non-trivial example. We also show the existence of an n-dimensional non-conformally at almost pseudo Ricci symmetric manifold with vanishing scalar curvature.

The purpose of the paper is to study of Para-Kenmotsu metric as a 𝜂-Ricci soliton. The paper is organized as follows: • If an 𝜂-Einstein para-Kenmotsu metric represents an 𝜂-Ricci soliton with flow vector field V, then it is Einstein with constant scalar curvature r = -2n(2n + 1). • If a para-Kenmotsu metric g represents an 𝜂-Ricci soliton with the flow vector field V being an infinitesimal paracontact transformation, then V is strict and the manifold is an Einstein manifold with constant scalar curvature r = -2n(2n + 1). • If a para-Kenmotsu metric g represents an 𝜂-Ricci soliton with non-zero flow vector field V being collinear with 𝜉, then the manifold is an Einstein manifold with constant scalar curvature r = -2n(2n + 1). Finally, we cited few examples to illustrate the results obtained.

It has been conjectured that, on a compact orient able manifold M, a critical point of the total scalar curvature functional restricted the space of unit volume metrics of constant scalar curvature is Einstein. In this paper we show that if a manifold is a 3-dimensional warped product, then (M, g) cannot be a critical point unless it is isometric to the standard sphere.

It has been conjectured that, on a compact 3-dimensional manifold, a critical point of the total scalar curvature functional restricted to the space of constant scalar curvature metrics of volume 1 is Einstein. In this paper we find a sufficient condition that a critical point is Einstein. This condition is equivalent for a critical point ot be conformally flat. Its relationship with the Fisher-Marsden conjecture is also discussed.

For complete Riemannian manifolds with vanishing Bach tensor and positive constant scalar curvature, we provide a rigidity theorem characterized by some pointwise inequalities. Furthermore, we prove some rigidity results under an inequality involving $L^{\frac{n}{2}}$-norm of the Weyl curvature, the traceless Ricci curvature and the Sobolev constant.

In the present paper, we aim to study Yamabe soliton and Riemann soliton on Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold. First, we proved, if the scalar curvature of an 𝜂-Einstein Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold M is constant, then either 𝜏 = n(n-1) or, 𝜏 = n-1. Also we constructed an example to justify this. Next, it is proved that, if a three dimensional Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold admits a Yamabe soliton for V is an infinitesimal contact transformation and tr 𝜑 is constant, then the soliton is expanding. Also we proved that, suppose a 3-dimensional Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold admits a Yamabe soliton, if tr 𝜑 is constant and scalar curvature 𝜏 is harmonic (i.e., ∆𝜏 = 0), then the soliton constant λ is always greater than zero with either 𝜏 = 2, or 𝜏 = 6, or λ = 6. Finally, we proved that, if an 𝜂-Einstein Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold M represents a Riemann soliton for the potential vector field V has constant divergence then either, M is of constant curvature 1 or, V is a strict infinitesimal contact transformation.

It is well known that critical points of the total scalar curvature functional S on the space of all smooth Riemannian structures of volume 1 on a compact manifold M are exactly the Einstein metrics. When the domain of S is restricted to the space of constant scalar curvature metrics, there has been a conjecture that a critical point is isometric to a standard sphere. In this paper we investigate the relationship between the first Betti number and stable minimal surfaces, and study the analytic properties of stable minimal surfaces in M for n = 3.

In Riemannian geometry, it is one of the important things to study the topological or geometric invariants of manifolds since they characterize the topology of manifolds.

If a paraSasakian manifold of dimension (2n + 1) represents Bach almost solitons, then the Bach tensor is a scalar multiple of the metric tensor and the manifold is of constant scalar curvature. Additionally it is shown that the Ricci operator of the metric g has a constant norm. Next, we characterize 3-dimensional paraSasakian manifolds admitting Bach almost solitons and it is proven that if a 3-dimensional paraSasakian manifold admits Bach almost solitons, then the manifold is of constant scalar curvature. Moreover, in dimension 3 the Bach almost solitons are steady if r = -6; shrinking if r > -6; expanding if r < -6.
