  • In this paper we construct a sequence of spaces which has Gromov-Hausdorff limit such that a geodesic in the limit space is not realized as a limit of geodesics in the spaces of the sequence. This contrasts with the result of Grove and Petersen in [1] where they proved otherwise for Alexandrov spaces with common curvature bounds.

  • In this paper, we mainly study the problem of the existence of homogeneous geodesics in sub-Finsler manifolds. Firstly, we obtain a characterization of a homogeneous curve to be a geodesic. Then we show that every compact connected homogeneous sub-Finsler manifold and Carnot group admits at least one homogeneous geodesic through each point. Finally, we study a special class of ℓp-type bi-invariant metrics on compact semi-simple Lie groups. We show that every homogeneous curve in such a metric space is a geodesic. Moreover, we prove that the Alexandrov curvature of the metric space is neither non-positive nor non-negative.

  • In this article, we find the necessary and sufficient condition for a proper biharmonic Frenet curve in the Lorentzian Sasakian space forms 𝓜31(H) except the case constant curvature -1. Next, we find that for a slant curve in a 3-dimensional Sasakian Lorentzian manifold, its ratio of "geodesic curvature" and "geodesic torsion -1" is a constant. We show that a proper biharmonic Frenet curve is a slant pseudo-helix with 𝜅2 - 𝜏2 = -1 + 𝜀1(H + 1)𝜂(B)2 in the Lorentzian Sasakian space forms x1D4DC31(H) except the case constant curvature -1. As example, we classify proper biharmonic Frenet curves in 3-dimensional Lorentzian Heisenberg space, that is a slant pseudo-helix.

  • The object of the present paper is to study certain geometrical properties of the submanifolds of generalized Sasakian space-forms. We deduce some results related to the invariant and anti-invariant slant submanifolds of the generalized Sasakian spaceforms. Finally, we study the properties of the sectional curvature, totally geodesic and umbilical submanifolds of the generalized Sasakian space-forms. To prove the existence of almost semiinvariant and anti-invariant submanifolds, we provide the non-trivial examples.

  • In this paper, we establish some comparison theorems about volumes of tubes in metric spaces with nonpositive curvature. First we compare the Hausdorff measure of tube about a metric ball contained in an (n-1)-dimensional totally geodesic subspace of an n-dimensional locally compact, geodesically complete Hadamard space with Lebesgue measure of its corresponding tube in Euclidean space ${\mathbb{R}}^n$, and then develop the result to the case of an m-dimensional totally geodesic subspace for 1 < m < n with an additional condition. Also, we estimate the Hausdorff measure of the tube about a shortest curve in a metric space of curvature bounded above and below.

  • The main purpose of this paper is to study the lightlike hypersurface (M, $\overline{g}$) of cosymplectic space form $\overline{M}$(c). In this paper, we computed the Gauss and Codazzi formulae of (M, $\overline{g}$) of cosymplectic manifold ($\overline{M}$, g). We showed that we can't obtain screen semi-invariant lightlike hypersurface (SCI-LH) of $\overline{M}$(c) with parallel second fundamental form h, parallel screen distribution and c ≠ 0. We showed that if second fundamental form h and local second fundamental form B are parallel, then (M, $\overline{g}$) is totally geodesic. Finally we showed that if (M, $\overline{g}$) is umbilical, then cosymplectic manifold ($\overline{M}$, g) is flat.

  • In this paper, we prove that if every totally real bisectional curvature of an n($\geq$3)-dimensional complete Kahler submanifold of a complex projective space of constant holomorphic sectional curvature c is greater than (equation omitted) (3n$^2$+2n-2), then it is totally geodesic and compact.

  • In this paper, we study totally umbilical slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Kaehler manifolds. We prove that there do not exist totally umbilical proper slant lightlike submanifolds in indefinite Kaehler manifolds other than totally geodesic proper slant lightlike submanifolds. We also prove that there do not exist totally umbilical proper slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Kaehler space forms. Finally, we give a characterization theorem on minimal slant lightlike submanifolds.
