  • We discuss on the classification problem of symplectic manifolds into three families according to the scalar curvature functions of almost K$\ddot{a}$hler metrics they admit. We also present a 4-dimensional solv-manifold as an example which belongs to one of the three families.

  • Weyl structure can be viewed as generalizations of Riemannian metrics. We study Weyl structures which are critical points of the squared L$^2$ norm functional of the full curvature tensor, defined on the space of Weyl structures on a compact 4-manifold. We find some relationship between these critical Weyl structures and the critical Riemannian metrics. Then in a search for homogeneous critical structures we study left-invariant metrics on some solv-manifolds and prove that they are not critical.
