In the present paper is to classify Beta-almost (${\beta}$-almost) Ricci solitons and ${\beta}$-almost gradient Ricci solitons on almost $CoK{\ddot{a}}hler$ manifolds with ${\xi}$ belongs to ($k,{\mu}$)-nullity distribution. In this paper, we prove that such manifolds with V is contact vector field and $Q{\phi}={\phi}Q$ is ${\eta}$-Einstein and it is steady when the potential vector field is pointwise collinear to the reeb vectoer field. Moreover, we prove that a ($k,{\mu}$)-almost $CoK{\ddot{a}}hler$ manifolds admitting ${\beta}$-almost gradient Ricci solitons is isometric to a sphere.

In the present paper, we characterize, for a class of almost Kenmotsu manifolds, those that admit quasi Yamabe solitons. We show that if a (k, 𝜇)'-almost Kenmotsu manifold admits a quasi Yamabe soliton (g, V, 𝜆, 𝛼) where V is pointwise collinear with 𝜉, then (1) V is a constant multiple of 𝜉, (2) V is a strict infinitesimal contact transformation, and (3) (£_Vh')X = 0 holds for any vector field X. We present an illustrative example to support the result.

The purpose of this article is to study the Ricci solitons and Ricci almost solitons on para-Kenmotsu manifold. First, we prove that if a para-Kenmotsu metric represents a Ricci soliton with the soliton vector field V is contact, then it is Einstein and the soliton is shrinking. Next, we prove that if a ${\eta}$-Einstein para-Kenmotsu metric represents a Ricci soliton, then it is Einstein with constant scalar curvature and the soliton is shrinking. Further, we prove that if a para-Kenmotsu metric represents a gradient Ricci almost soliton, then it is ${\eta}$-Einstein. This result is also hold for Ricci almost soliton if the potential vector field V is pointwise collinear with the Reeb vector field ${\xi}$.

The object of the offering exposition is to study almost Ricci soliton and gradient almost Ricci soliton in 3-dimensional para-Sasakian manifolds. At first, it is shown that if (g, V, λ) be an almost Ricci soliton on a 3-dimensional para-Sasakian manifold M, then it reduces to a Ricci soliton and the soliton is expanding for λ=-2. Besides these, in this section, we prove that if V is pointwise collinear with ξ, then V is a constant multiple of ξ and the manifold is of constant sectional curvature -1. Moreover, it is proved that if a 3-dimensional para-Sasakian manifold admits gradient almost Ricci soliton under certain conditions then either the manifold is of constant sectional curvature -1 or it reduces to a gradient Ricci soliton. Finally, we consider an example to justify some results of our paper.
