  • Here, certain Ricci flow for Finsler n-manifolds is considered and deformation of Cartan hh-curvature, as well as Ricci tensor and scalar curvature, are derived for spaces of scalar flag curvature. As an application, it is shown that on a family of Finsler manifolds of constant flag curvature, the scalar curvature satisfies the so-called heat-type equation. Hence on a compact Finsler manifold of constant flag curvature of initial non-negative scalar curvature, the scalar curvature remains non-negative by Ricci flow and blows up in a short time.

  • Let (M,g) be an n-dimensional, connected Riemannian manifold with Levi Civita connection $\nabla$ and Riemannian curvature tensor R defined by $$ R_XY = [\nabla_X, \nabla_Y] - \nabla_{[X,Y]} $$ for all smooth vector fields X, Y. $\nablaR, \cdots, \nabla^kR, \cdots$ denote the successive covariant derivatives and we assume $\nabla^0R = R$.

  • We consider a 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold M with a circulant metric g and a circulant structure q satisfying $q^3=id$. The structure q is compatible with g such that an isometry is induced in any tangent space of M. We introduce three classes of such manifolds. Two of them are determined by special properties of the curvature tensor. The third class is composed by manifolds whose structure q is parallel with respect to the Levi-Civita connection of g. We obtain some curvature properties of these manifolds (M, g, q) and give some explicit examples of such manifolds.

  • For complete manifolds with α-Bach tensor (which is defined by (1.2)) flat, we provide some rigidity results characterized by some point-wise inequalities involving the Weyl curvature and the traceless Ricci curvature. Moveover, some Einstein metrics have also been characterized by some $L^{\frac{n}{2}}$-integral inequalities. Furthermore, we also give some rigidity characterizations for constant sectional curvature.

  • The aim of this paper is two-fold. First, we study the Chinea-Gonzalez class C12 of almost contact metric manifolds and we discuss some fundamental properties. We show there is a one-to-one correspondence between C12 and Kählerian structures. Secondly, we give some basic results for Riemannian curvature tensor of C12-manifolds and then establish equivalent relations among 𝜑-sectional curvature. Concrete examples are given.

  • In this note, we define a Berger type deformed Sasaki metric as a natural metric on the second tangent bundle of a manifold by means of a biparacomplex structure. First, we obtain the Levi-Civita connection of this metric. Secondly, we get the curvature tensor, sectional curvature, and scalar curvature. Afterwards, we obtain some formulas characterizing the geodesics with respect to the metric on the second tangent bundle. Finally, we present the harmonicity conditions for some maps.
