S. Tachibana [10] has defined a confornal Killing tensor in a n-dimensional Riemannian manifold M by a skew symmetric tensor $u_[ji}$ satisfying the equation $$ \nabla_k u_{ji} + \nabla_j u_{ki} = 2\rho_i g_{kj} - \rho_j g_{ki} - \rho_k g_{ji}, $$ where $g_{ji}$ is the metric tensor of M, $\nabla$ denotes the covariant derivative with respect to $g_{ji}$ and $\rho_i$ is a associated covector field of $u_{ji}$. In here, a covector field means a 1-form.

We investigate the new Clairaut conditions for anti-invariant submersions whose total manifolds are cosymplectic. In particular, we prove the fibers of a proper Clairaut Lagrangian submersion admitting horizontal Reeb vector field are one dimensional and classify such submersions. We also check the existence of the proper Clairaut anti-invariant submersions in the case of the Reeb vector field is vertical. Moreover, illustrative examples for both trivial and proper Clairaut anti-invariant submersions are given.

Main interest of the present paper is to investigate the criticality of characteristic vector fields on almost cosymplectic manifolds. Killing critical characteristic vector fields are absolute minima. This paper contains some examples of non-Killing critical characteristic vector fields.

In this paper, we introduce almost α-Cosymplectic f-manifolds endowed with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection and give some general results concerning the curvature of such connection. In particular, we study some curvature properties of an almost α-cosymplectic f-manifold equipped with semi-symmetric non-metric connection.

The present paper mainly treats with almost f-cosymplectic manifolds. This notion contains almost cosymplectic and almost Kenmotsu manifolds. Almost cosymplectic manifolds introduced in ［1］ have been studied by many schalors, say ［2］, ［3］, ［4］, and almost Kenmotsu manifolds introduced in ［5］ have been studied in ［6］, ［7］. The present paper studies some geometrical and topological properties of the canonical foliation defined by the contact distribution of an almost f-cosymplectic manifold. The purpose of the present paper is to extend the results obtained in ［8］, ［9］.

In this paper, we obtain some necessary and sufficient conditions for the Reeb vector field of a trans-Sasakian 3-manifold to be minimal or harmonic. We construct some examples to illustrate main results. As applications of the above results, we obtain some new characteristic conditions under which a compact trans-Sasakian 3-manifold is homothetic to either a Sasakian or cosymplectic 3-manifold.

Let ($M, G_M, F$) be a (p+q)-dimensional Riemannian manifold with a foliation F of codimension q and a bundle-like metric $g_M$ with respect to F ([9]). Aside from the Laplacian $\bigtriangleup_g$ associated to the metric g, there is another differnetial operator, the Jacobi operator $J_D$, which is a second order elliptic operator acting on sections of the normal bundle. Its spectrum isdiscrete as a consequence of the compactness of M. The study of the spectrum of $\bigtriangleup_g$ acting on functions or forms has attracted a lot of attention. In this point of view, the present authors [7] have studied the spectrum of the Laplacian and the curvature of a compact orientable cosymplectic manifold. On the other hand, S. Nishikawa, Ph. Tondeur and L. Vanhecke [6] studied the spectral geometry for Riemannian foliations. The purpose of the present paper is to study the relation between two spectra and the transversal geometry of cosymplectic foliations. We shall be in $C^\infty$-category. Manifolds are assumed to be connected.

Generalized Ricci-recurrent trans-Sasakian manifolds are studied. Among others, it is proved that a generalized Ricci-recurrent cosymplectic manifold is always recurrent Generalized Ricci-recurrent trans-Sasakian manifolds of dimension $\geq$ 5 are locally classified. It is also proved that if M is one of Sasakian, $\alpha$-Sasakian, Kenmotsu or $\beta$-Kenmotsu manifolds, which is gener-alized Ricci-recurrent with cyclic Ricci tensor and non-zero A (ξ) everywhere; then M is an Einstein manifold.
