The study of harmonicity for almost contact metric structures was initiated by Vergara-Díaz and Wood and continued by González-Dávila and the present author. By using the intrinsic torsion and some restriction on the type of almost contact metric structure, González-Dávila and the present author have characterised harm…

The paper shows how Sobolev maps affect currents in metric spaces.

This paper is a continuation of our previous work, where eleven basic classes of almost paracontact metric manifolds with respect to the covariant derivative of the structure tensor field were obtained. First we decompose one of the eleven classes into two classes and the basic classes of the considered manifolds becom…

The paper discusses a flow for almost continuous metrics with bounded curvature, leading to smooth metrics with bounded scalar curvature.

This is a continuous work about the nonexistence of some complete metrics on the product of two manifolds studied by Tam-Yu [Asian Journal of Mathematics, 14(2010)]. Motivated by the result of Tossati [Comm.Anal.Geom. 15(2007)]. We generalize the corresponding results of Tam-Yu [Asian Journal of Mathematics, 14(2010)] …

This paper is a continuation of our paper about boundary rigidity and filling minimality of metrics close to flat ones. We show that compact regions close to a hyperbolic one are boundary distance rigid and strict minimal fillings. We also provide a more invariant view on the approach used in the above mentioned paper.

We consider pointwise linear elliptic equations of the form $\mathrm{L}_x u_x = η_x$ on a smooth compact manifold where the operators $\mathrm{L}_x$ are in divergence form with real, bounded, measurable coefficients that vary in the space variable $x$. We establish $\mathrm{L}^{2}$-continuity of the solutions at $x$ wh…

In this paper the notion of the intrinsic geometry of an almost contact metric manifold is introduced. Description of some classes of spaces with almost contact metric structures in terms of the intrinsic geometry is given. A new type of almost contact metric spaces, more precisely, Hermitian almost contact metric spac…

In this article, we study an almost contact metric structure on a $G_2$-manifold constructed by Arikan, Cho and Salur in via the classification of almost contact metric structures given by Chinea and Gonzalez. In particular, we characterize when this almost contact metric structure is cosymplectic and narrow down the p…

A taut foliation of a hyperbolic 3-manifold has the continuous extension property for leaves in almost every direction; that is, for each leaf of the universal cover of the foliation and almost every geodesic ray in the leaf, the limit of the ray in the universal cover of the 3-manifold is a well-defined point in the i…

The author is planning if possible classify all three-dimensional $(κ,μ)$-manifolds wether contact metric, almost cosymplectic, para-contact metric, almost para-cosymplectic. Of course classification in contact or almost cosymplectic cases already is provdied. Up to authors knowledge there is no classification for para…

It is introduced a differentiable manifold with almost contact 3-structure which consists of an almost contact metric structure and two almost contact B-metric structures. The product of this manifold and a real line is an almost hypercomplex manifold with Hermitian-Norden metrics. It is proven that the introduced mani…

The paper characterizes Kenmotsu metrics as almost $*$-Ricci solitons.

We consider the semi-classical Dirac operator coupled to a magnetic potential on a large class of manifolds including all metric contact manifolds. We prove a sharp local Weyl law and a bound on its eta invariant. In the absence of a Fourier integral parametrix, the method relies on the use of almost analytic continuat…

We construct a continuous 1-parameter family of smooth complete Ricci-flat metrics of cohomogeneity one on vector bundles over $\mathbb{CP}^2$, $\mathbb{HP}^2$ and $\mathbb{OP}^2$ with respective principal orbits $G/K$ the Wallach spaces $SU(3)/T^2$, $Sp(3)/(Sp(1)Sp(1)Sp(1))$ and $F_4/\mathrm{spin}(8)$. Almost all the …

Families of linear connections are constructed on almost contact manifolds with Norden metric. An analogous connection to the symmetric Yano connection is obtained on a normal almost contact manifold with Norden metric and closed structural 1-form. The curvature properties of this connection are studied on two basic cl…

In this paper we consider a manifold $(M,\nabla )$ with a symmetric linear connection $\nabla$ which induces on the cotangent bundle $T^*M$ of $M$ a semi-Riemannian metric $\overline g$ with a neutral signature. The metric $\overline g$ is called natural Riemann extension and it is a generalization (made by M. Sekizaw…

Given a path of almost-Kähler metrics compatible with a fixed symplectic form on a compact 4-manifold such that at time zero the almost-Kähler metric is an extremal Kähler one, we prove, for a short time and under a certain hypothesis, the existence of a smooth family of extremal almost-Kähler metrics compatible with t…

On connected manifolds of dimension higher than three, the non-existence of $132$ Chinea and González-Dávila types of almost contact metric structures is proved. This is a consequence of some interrelations among components of the intrinsic torsion of an almost contact metric structure. Such interrelations allow to des…

We study 5-dimensional Riemannian manifolds that admit an almost contact metric structure. We classify these structures by their intrinsic torsion and review the literature in terms of this scheme. Moreover, we determine necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of metric connections with vectorial, totally…

Paper solves a metric-independent problem on almost Kähler 4-manifolds.

For modelling of various physical processes, geodesic lines and almost geodesic curves serve as a useful tool. Trasformations or mappings between spaces (endowed with a metric or connection) which preserve such curves play an important role in physics, particularly in mechanics, and in geometry as well. Our aim is to c…

We study almost contact metric structures induced by 2-fold vector cross products on manifolds with $G_2$ structures. We get some results on possible classes of almost contact metric structures. Finally we give examples.

On a 4-dimensional compact symplectic manifold, we consider a smooth family of compatible almost-complex structures such that at time zero the induced metric is Hermite-Einstein almost-Kähler metric with zero or negative Hermitian scalar curvature. We prove, under certain hypothesis, the existence of a smooth family of…

In this paper we introduce radical transversal lightlike hypersurfaces of almost complex manifolds with Norden metric. The study of these hypersurfaces is motivated by the fact that for indefinite almost Hermitian manifolds this class of lightlike hypersurfaces does not exist. We also establish that radical transversal…
