Abstract: The object of this paper is to obtain the characterisation of para-Kenmotsu (briefly P-Kenmotsu) manifold satisfying the conditions R(ξ,X).C-C(ξ,X).R= 0 and R(ξ,X).C-C(ξ,X).R=LcQ(g,C), where C(X,Y) is the Weyl-conformal curvature tensor, Lc is some function and X∈ T(Mn). It is shown respectively that the P-Kenmotsu manifold with these conditions is an η-Einstein manifold and the manifold is either conformally flat (or) Lc = -1 holds on the manifold.

Keywords: Curvature Tensor, Ricci Tensor, Weyl-semisymmetric para-Kenmotsu manifold, Einstein manifold

1. Introduction

The notion of an almost para contact Riemannian manifold was introduced by Sato [10], in 1976. After that, Adati and Matsumoto [1] further defined and studied -Sasakian and -Sasakian manifolds which are regarded as a special kind of an almost contact Riemannian manifolds. Before Sato, in 1972, Kenmotsu [9] defined a class of almost contact Riemannian manifold. In 1995, Sinha and Sai Prasad [13] have defined a class of almost para contact metric manifolds namely, para-Kenmotsu (briefly -Kenmotsu) and special para-Kenmotsu (briefly -Kenmotsu) manifolds.

Let (, g) be an n-dimensional, , differentiable manifold of class . Let be its Levi-Civita connection, be the Riemannian Christoffel curvature tensor and be the Weyl conformal curvature tensor is defined by

[picture] | (1.1)

where is the Ricci operator, is the Ricci tensor and is the scalar curvature of [4]. The Ricci operator and the (0,2)-tensor are defined by

[picture] | (1.2)

and

[picture] | (1.3)

A manifold is conformally flat if and . If C = 0 then is called conformally symmetric and hence it is Weyl-semisymmetric [5].

For a (0, k)-tensor field T, , on (, g) we define the tensors , and Q(g, T) respectively as [8]:

[picture] | (1.4)

[picture] | (1.5)

[picture] | (1.6)

where the endomorphism is defined by

[picture] | (1.7)

If the tensors and are linearly dependent then the manifold is called Weyl-pseudosymmetric [8], and it is same as

[picture] | (1.8)

which holds on the set = {x M: C at x}, where is some function of . If , then the manifold is called Weyl-semisymmetric [8].

Locally symmetric, semisymmetric and Pseudosymmetric Para-Sasakian manifolds are widely studied by many geometers [2,6,7]. By studying Weyl-semisymmetric para-Kenmotsu manifolds, Satyanarayana and Sai Prasad have shown that such a manifold is conformally flat and hence it is an SP-Kenmotsu manifold [12]. Later, they extended their work to find the characterisations of the Weyl-pseudosymmetric para-Kenmotsu manifolds which are regarded as the extended classes of Weyl-semisymmetric para-Kenmotsu manifolds.

Through this study, we could obtain the characterisations of the para-Kenmotsu manifolds with the conditions =0 and .

2. Para-Kenmotsu Manifold

Let be an -dimensional differentiable manifold equipped with structure tensors , where is a tensor of type (1, 1), is a vector field, is a 1-form such that

[picture] | (2.1)

[picture] | (2.2)

Then is called an almost para contact manifold.

Let be the Riemannian metric satisfying such that, for all vector fields and on ,

[picture] | (2.3)

[picture] | (2.4)

[picture] | (2.5)

Then the manifold [10] is said to admit an almost para contact Riemannian structure .

A manifold of dimension with Riemannian metric admitting a tensor field of type (1, 1), a vector field and a 1-form satisfying (2.1), (2.3) along with

[picture] | (2.6)

[picture] | (2.7)

[picture] | (2.8)

[picture] | (2.9)

is called a para-Kenmotsu manifold or briefly -Kenmotsu manifold [13], where is the covariant differentiation with respect to the metric .

Let be an -dimensional Riemannian manifold admitting a tensor field of type (1, 1), a vector field and a 1-form satisfying

[picture] | (2.10)

[picture] | (2.11)

Then is called special para-Kenmotsu manifold or in brief-Kenmotsu manifold [13].

It is known that, in a P-Kenmotsu manifold the following relations hold good [13]:

[picture] | (2.12)

[picture] | (2.13)

[picture] | (2.14)

[picture] | (2.15)

[picture] | (2.16)

[picture] | (2.17)

[picture] | (2.18)

where is the Ricci operator.

An almost para-contact Riemannian manifold is said to be an -Einstein manifold [11] if the Ricci curvature tensor is of the form

[picture] | (2.19)

where and are smooth functions on . In particular, if then it is said to be an Einstein manifold [11].

Moreover, it is also known that if a P-Kenmotsu manifold is projectively flat then it is an Einstein manifold and its scalar curvature has a negative constant value . Especially, if a P-Kenmotsu manifold is of constant curvature, then scalar curvature has a negative constant value [13] and in this case

3. Main Results

Through this study, we could obtain the characterisations of para-Kenmotsu manifolds with the conditions = 0 and .

The tensors and on (, g) are defined by:

[picture] | (3.1)

and

[picture] | (3.2)

Let () be a para-Kenmotsu manifold. Then from (3.1), (3.2) and (1.1), we have

[picture] | (3.3)

and

[picture] | (3.4)

By multiplying (3.3) and (3.4) with and on using the condition , we get

[picture] | (3.5)

By putting in (3.5) and on using (2.12) and (2.13), we get

[picture] | (3.6)

which on simplification gives

[picture] | (3.7)

This shows that the manifold is an -Einstein manifold.Thus, we state the following theorem.

Theorem 3.1: A P-Kenmotsu manifold () with the condition = 0 is an -Einstein manifold.

Further, let us consider para-Kenmotsu manifold () with the condition .

Then, we have

[picture] | (3.8)

By multiplying (3.8) with and on using (1.7), we get

[picture] | (3.9)

By using the equations (2.12) and (2.13), the above equation reduces to

[picture] | (3.10)

By interchanging and in (3.10) and on subtracting it from (3.10), we get

[picture] | (3.11)

By putting in (3.11), we get

[picture] | (3.12)

On contracting the above equation with respect to , we get

[picture] | (3.13)

From (3.13), if , the manifold is Weyl-semisymmetric, and hence we have

[picture] | (3.14)

which gives us

[picture] | (3.15)

This shows that the manifold is an -Einstein manifold.

Now, by using the equations (3.14) and (3.15), the equation (3.11) takes the form , means that the manifold is conformally flat and hence it is an SP-Kenmotsu manifold [12].

If and in (3.13), we have . Thus, we state the following theorem.

Theorem 3.2: A Para-Kenmotsu manifold () with the condition is either conformally flat, in which is an SP-Kenmotsu manifold, or holds on .

4. Conclusion

In this paper, we have obtained the curvature properties of para-Kenmotsu manifold with the conditions = 0 and . Some of these results obtained are in similar to the results reported earlier in the case of para-Sasakian manifolds [3].
