Biharmonic Hypersurfaces of LP-Sasakian Manifolds In this paper the biharmonic hypersurfaces of Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds are studied. We firstly find the biharmonic equation for a hypersurface which admits the characteristic vector field of the Lorentzian para-Sasakian as the normal vector field. We show that a biharmonic spacelike hypersurface of a Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold with constant mean curvature is minimal. The biharmonicity condition for a hypersurface of a Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold is investigated when the characteristic vector field belongs to the tangent hyperplane of the hypersurface. We find some necessary and sufficient conditions for a timelike hypersurface of a Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold to be proper biharmonic. The nonexistence of proper biharmonic timelike hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in a Ricci flat Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold is proved.

AbstractWe consider the Randers space (Vn, Fb) obtained by perturbing the Euclidean metric by a translation, Fb = α + β, where α is the Euclidean metric and β is a 1-form with norm b, 0 ≤ b < 1. We introduce the concept of a hypersurface with constant mean curvature in the direction of a unitary normal vector field. We obtain the ordinary differential equation that characterizes the rotational surfaces (V3, Fb) of constant mean curvature (cmc) in the direction of a unitary normal vector field. These equations reduce to the classical equation of the rotational cmc surfaces in Euclidean space, when b = 0. It also reduces to the equation that characterizes the minimal rotational surfaces in (V3, Fb) when H = 0, obtained by M. Souza and K. Tenenblat. Although the differential equation depends on the choice of the normal direction, we show that both equations determine the same rotational surface, up to a reflection. We also show that the round cylinders are cmc surfaces in the direction of the unitary normal field. They are generated by the constant solution of the differential equation. By considering the equation as a nonlinear dynamical system, we provide a qualitative analysis, for . Using the concept of stability and considering the linearization around the single equilibrium point (the constant solution), we verify that the solutions are locally asymptotically stable spirals. This is proved by constructing a Lyapunov function for the dynamical systemand by determining the basin of stability of the equilibrium point. The surfaces of rotation generated by such solutions tend asymptotically to one end of the cylinder.

The purpose of this paper is to study anti-invariant Riemannian submersions from Sasakian manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds such that characteristic vector field is vertical or horizontal vector field. We first show that any anti-invariant Riemannian submersions from Sasakian manifold is not a Riemannian submersion with totally umbilical fiber. Then we introduce anti-invariant Riemannian submersions from Sasakian manifolds with totally contact umbilical fibers. We investigate the totally contact geodesicity of fibers of such submersions. Moreover, under this condition, we investigate Ricci curvature of anti-invariant Riemannian submersions from Sasakian manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds.

On η-Einstein Trans-Sasakian ManifoldsA systematic study of η-Einstein trans-Sasakian manifold is performed. We find eight necessary and sufficient conditions for the structure vector field ζ of a trans-Sasakian manifold to be an eigenvector field of the Ricci operator. We show that for a 3-dimensional almost contact metric manifold (M,φ, ζ, η, g), the conditions of being normal, trans-K-contact, trans-Sasakian are all equivalent to ∇ζ ∘ φ = φ ∘ ∇ζ. In particular, the conditions of being quasi-Sasakian, normal with 0 = 2β = divζ, trans-K-contact of type (α, 0), trans-Sasakian of type (α, 0), andC6-class are all equivalent to ∇ ζ = -αφ, where 2α = Trace(φ∇ζ). In last, we give fifteen necessary and sufficient conditions for a 3-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifold to be η-Einstein.

We study lightlike hypersurfaces of para-Sasakian manifolds tangent to the characteristic vector field. In particular, we define invariant lightlike hypersurfaces and screen semi-invariant lightlike hypersurfaces, respectively, and give examples. Integrability conditions for the distributions on a screen semi-invariant lightlike hypersurface of para-Sasakian manifolds are investigated. We obtain a para-Sasakian structure on the leaves of an integrable distribution of a screen semi-invariant lightlike hypersurface.

AbstractWe study orientable hypersurfaces in a Sasakian manifold. The structure vector field ξ of a Sasakian manifold determines a vector field v on a hypersurface that is the component of the Reeb vector field ξ tangential to the hypersurface, and it also gives rise to a smooth function σ on the hypersurface, namely the projection of ξ on the unit normal vector field N. Moreover, we have a second vector field tangent to the hypersurface, given by $\mathbf{u}=-\varphi (N)$ u = − φ ( N ) . In this paper, we first find a necessary and sufficient condition for a compact orientable hypersurface to be totally umbilical. Then, with the assumption that the vector field u is an eigenvector of the Laplace operator, we find a necessary condition for a compact orientable hypersurface to be isometric to a sphere. It is shown that the converse of this result holds, provided that the Sasakian manifold is the odd dimensional sphere $\mathbf{S}^{2n+1}$ S 2 n + 1 . Similar results are obtained for the vector field v under the hypothesis that this is an eigenvector of the Laplace operator. Also, we use a bound on the integral of the Ricci curvature $Ric ( \mathbf{u},\mathbf{u} ) $ R i c ( u , u ) of the compact hypersurface to find a necessary condition for the hypersurface to be isometric to a sphere. We show that this condition is also sufficient if the Sasakian manifold is $\mathbf{S}^{2n+1}$ S 2 n + 1 .

In this paper, we study a semi-Riemannian submersion from Lorentzian almost (para) contact manifolds and find necessary and sufficient conditions for the characteristic vector field to be vertical or horizontal. We also obtain decomposition theorems for anti-invariant semi-Riemannian submersions from Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds onto Lorentzian manifolds.

Let M be a surface immersed in an m-dimensional space form Rm(c) of curvature c = 1, 0 or −1. Let h be the second fundamental form of this immersion; it is a certain symmetric bilinear mapping for x ∈ M, where Tx is the tangent space and the normal space of M at x. Let H be the mean curvature vector of M in Rm(c) and 〈, 〉 the scalar product on Rm(c). If there exists a function λ on M such that 〈h(X, Y), H〉 = λ〈X, Y〉 for all tangent vectors X, Y, then M is called a pseudo-umbilical surface of Rm(c). Let D denote the covariant differentiation of Rm(c) and η be a normal vector field. If we denote by D*η the normal component of Dη, then D* defines a connection in the normal bundle. A normal vector field η is said to be parallel in the normal bundle if Dη = 0. The length of mean curvature vector is called the mean curvature.
